British teen socialite Peaches Geldof, 19, traveled to Las Vegas last week and married Max Drummey, the 23 year old member of the pop music band Chester French while the pair were on vacation in the U.S. It is unclear whether it was a sudden whim or had been their reason for hitting the gambling mecca. This comes on the heels of rumors that Peaches was dating Faris Rotter from another British band The Horrors.
A publicist for the couple released this statement of confirmation:
“Peaches and Max Drummey are delighted to announce their very happy marriage. The couple tied the knot in a simple low-key ceremony in Las Vegas last week. Their marriage has the full support of their family and friends. Peaches and Max did not want unnecessary publicity, but following growing media speculation, have decided to set out the facts. No further comment from either will be forthcoming.”
Maxwell Drummey met his musical partner D.A. Wallach at Harvard University. They named their pop music band after sculptor Daniel Chester French. Their song She Loves Everybody was featured in the closing credits of the HBO show Entourage.
Sir Bob Geldof has reportedly been unhappy about his daughter’s partying ways. The teen was reported to have recently suffered a drug overdose and was discovered by a good friend who was able to get her medical help.
The Irish singer, songwriter, actor and political activist became famous as a member of the Boomtown Rats. The 56 year old has also been successful in business, co-founding a television production company Planet 24. He is also known to be controversial and outspoken and was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II in 1986.
