She only got married to him four months ago, but Peaches Geldof is not spending Christmas with Max Drummey this year. She's going to spend it instead with her dad, Bob.

Scarecrow-scarer Bob was, of course, not happy about her whirlwind romance and marriage to 'rock' 'star' Max. So a Christmas with them all round the same table would be more uncomfortable than someone eating a bucket of foie gras with a diamond spoon as they project the Band Aid video on a loop onto a starving African's forehead.

 

Peaches droned in that one-chord voice of hers: "We see each other all the time, so that's fine with us. It's what other young couples do — and it's only for four days."

 

Yes, Peaches, that's exactly what other young couples do - until they get married (remember that whole business with the rings in the summer?). Then they go, as a couple, to their respective families.

 

But Peaches thumbs her nose at 'convention'. She is so radical that she refuses to live by your staid rules, daddy-o. And this has absolutely nothing to do with daddy (who picks up her bills) sticking his oar in. Not at all. Not one bit.

 

Maybe she can now write a fascinating article about her convention-shattering Christmas in her it's-not-a-vanity-publication, Disappear Here. In crayon.
