1995 interview with Paula Yates on Bob Geldof and Michael Hutchence - บันเทิง
Poor Paula was destroyed by the press for just being honest. During her divorce, she stated that Bob had tried to choke her, controlled who she could call and her money and that he had 6 affairs. Claire King would later brag that she was one of his affairs.
Through all this the press just called Paula a liar!!! There was no MeToo movement back then to speak up on victim's behaves.
Even sadder is when she had a suicide attempt and the press said she did it for attention. Can you imagine if someone said that about depression and suicide today?! Even the press saw how Bob was trying to make her homeless and broke and still took his side. It was so unfair.
Literally.
Doubt he choked her but she is just as bad as Bob
She was remarkably good-humoured and polite in the face of the journalists' rude, crass comments and questions
@@TheKonga88 How do you kmow??
@@MissOrchid12 Because I saw her put it there.. 😷😷🏃🏃🏃😀😀😀
She really was.
But she was a rude crass journalist, who screwed some of her interviewees.
She was being paid by them!
Christ I was 15. Now I'm nearly 41. This interview could have been filmed yesterday.
I feel the story of Paula is a heartbreak. And Peaches. And Michael. It broke my heart.
If Paula and Peaches were not alone when they overdosed they may have still been here today. Many years ago I overdosed on heroin and the only reason I'm alive today is because there was someone with me at the time who immediately called an ambulance and managed to keep me breathing in the meantime by administering first aid.
@@clarenceboddicker6679 they weren't alone. They had their babies around. Which makes me sick! How can you use drugs when your little children around?? STUPID IDIOTS BOTH!
Back in the late 90s I was driving through Paddington where I was studying at drama school. A woman in her PJ's with a full length leopard print coat over top carrying a plastic bag of what looked like regular shopping walked out between two parked cars to cross the rd. I very nearly collided with this woman. She didn't seem coherent & it was only 8:30 am. It was very clear Paula was struggling with life. I hope she's now at peace along with her daughter.
How sad.
Wow
Poor girl. She had a short and tragic life.
@@desertrose1226 her own fault. She didn't die of cancer or other illnesses. She died because of being brainless, just like her daughter, who didn't learn lesson at all!
Paula always struck me as a beautiful soul. She is so honest here and the media seemed to go for her with a passion. The only time I feel she was dishonest was when she was asked if she cared what people thought. She cared too much despite trying not to give a toss.
It’s because she cheated. No one likes a cheat. She was a nice girl though. Sad how her life ended so early.
@@desertrose1226 Yes, that’s true. I certainly didn’t agree with that but she was hardly the first person in the public spotlight to cheat on their partner.
Cheating is one thing but she didn't exactly hide it, she wasn't discrete, she rubbed Bobs nose in it. I don't think she was all bad but she wasn't a angel either.
She cared more about smack and shagging anything that moved than being a mother....heck she even shot up for the last time in front of Tiger Lilly....the poor girl actually phoned police herself when she wouldn't wake up.....she failed all of her children and Michael....left Bob to clean everything up
I feel no pity for THIS woman...thank God she's gone..Rip Micheal..❤️
Well I think she was fabulous. Beautiful, intelligent, funny, self deprecating, and a loving mother. Life's hard sometimes. I'm just sad for her family that she's not around anymore. May she rest in peace with her daughter and the man she loved.🌠❤
adele clough You worded that how I felt. I do think she's funny and honest.
Che lost her head, M loved everyone
Very sorry for both
Anything but beautiful but she played the sex card well so M fell into that trap --which perhaps wasn't all that difficult given the fact that both were drug addicts.
Very sorry 😞
She’s open and brutally honest here, and comes across as very likeable!
She's o̶p̶e̶n̶ a̶n̶d̶ b̶r̶u̶t̶a̶l̶l̶y̶ h̶o̶n̶e̶s̶t̶ h̶e̶r̶e̶, a̶n̶d̶ c̶o̶m̶e̶s̶ a̶c̶r̶o̶s̶s̶ a̶s̶ v̶e̶r̶y̶ l̶i̶k̶e̶a̶b̶l̶e̶ crass AF!
@@Robin.Tussin Exactly. She pushing a tell all book to make money! Does not give a shit about her daughter's reading sordid tales about their own father!
Still get an overwhelming sadness when I see Paula
Think of how her daughters feel. You didn't even know her
@@dannydorko7075 most didn't know Diana Spencer but..........
She should of thought about her kids before injecting herself with the devil's juice
Yah she ever got to see her daughter grow up.
@@dannydorko7075 I mean the overwhelming sadness of her life. Her children the divorce and the death of Michael also . You Danny are a human with no humanity, you need to look at the whole picture .
I absolutely loved Paula she always spoke the truth and was very honest about what she said.
It’s just so sad it ended the way it did for her and Michael and the Children.
I hope they are at peace together now with Peaches.
she was refreshingly honest.I hope somewhere Paula and Peaches are together again.
isn't that a wonderful thought. I wish the same. I lost my mother @ a young age, it changes you & your place in the world. Grief has its own timetable, you don't get a say while grieving. It shows up one day & doesn't leave until it decides to.
+Ali Murray Aren't they buried in the same cemetery?
+Ali Murray her lack of esteem to feel so obliged to answer those vultures is miserable! and you see it as refreshingly honest. how about seeing it as a miserable life where you feel you have to please arseholes and cease to be a creative entity in any respect and you just allow other folk to make you into their 'soundbite' version of you. and the bit when she started talking about the size of her tits, as if to shrug off the shallowness of it all. just makes me feel sorry for her.
No, they are not! Michael was a rock god in Australia, his family build a shrine like place for fans to go. Paula lost Michael, although he gave quite a few interviews they would marry, and she divorced Bob so I would think she is in England.
+shaunaanne100 "In Australia". . . . . nuff sed.
So sad . Wish things had turned out differently for them all x😇
I loved Paula, I thought she was beautiful, outspoken, cheeky, daring....brilliant. It was sad to see a broken woman after Michaels death. Very very sad.
D C надо было отказаться от героина обоим. Это невозможно на таком этапе
what she did to Bob Geldof was also VERY very sad! :(
D C great lady devastated her family for her own self gratification... what an amazing women... then dies of heroin overdose.. my idle ... you twat ...think about her kids dickhead
She destroyed her daughters lives, her ex husband by publicly humiliating him, Michael and Michael's family and the great band INXS. She couldn't wait to shag Kingsley Okeke less than a year after Michael was dead, and he wrote they even had Tiger in their bed. Sicko woman. No wonder she lost custody of her children.
@@painfreesunrise Bob was emotionally abusive and neglectful of her when she was with him, and he took the piss out of her. Many of his friends testified to this in a biography I read years ago. But Paula loved him and tried and tried and hung on hoping things would change, until she could try no more. Then she met a man who truly loved and appreciated her. There are two sides to every story.
Paula was just so so lovely.... Beautiful person..... She looked the nicest with her blonde hair and the minimum of make-up .... She conducted the loveliest interviews I have ever seen.... ❤️❤️❤️❤️Gone too soon lovely Paula. 🙏😢
@Barbara Nannucci how would you know she was dx'd with that?
Has anyone questioned what was really said in that final phone call with Paula and then Bob? And Michael had called his friends for help, maybe someone got to him
Would he really have wanted to be found like that? Something never sounded right with this. Was something known but never said and thry say Psuka was not doing drugs before her death because if she was that dose wouldn't killed her and why would she do that alone with her daughter. How about her and Michael's place with drugs being found by housekeeper like a set up to win the children from her and the divorce. Too many many questions
In an interview with Michaels brother Rhett he talks about how Paula walked up to him and dropped done heroin in his jacket pocket the before Michaels funeral. She certainly was no stranger to substances.
Look how honest she's being here and people still want to slag her off.
They do it because she wasn’t a supermodel. People are shallow AF these days!
@@desertrose1226 Honest? Because she used the book to slag off her children's father?? Because of her suicide allegations she lost custody of? Despicable and hurtful more like. Poor Bob and poor Michael and poor girls that had to deal with her media hungry ambitions. Narcissist bitch.
She was a junkie and passed it on to her child! If she was on the street no one would defend her..
@@purplesunflower8242 Yes. Even Michael's mother said Paula was breastfeeding whilst being an addict hence baby Tiger was the perfect child constantly asleep or sleepy. Paula hated Michael's family. They saw through her. Once Paula killed herself, Bob saw to it young Tiger had nothing to do with her Australian parents. Very sad.
Very articulate lady
i still can't believe the crap this girl gets... why?... so she split up with her husband... &?...
rip paula yates...
Because although attractive she didn’t fit the ‘perfect” , stupid beauty standards!!!!
no she took drugs and did not care for her children
@@skygazer6898 we have all been heart broken when the love of your life walks out the door...
how is paula any different?...
frankly, i find the comments sickening... she was a bright, beautiful, woman, who was a victim of circumstance...
rip paul yates. ❤
@@skygazer6898 i'm really sorry but you have totally got the wrong end of the stick here.
i am totally defending paula yates. she was a smart sassy beautiful woman, & i was stating that the people tearing into her for the unfortunate circumstances of her death need to look at themselves in the mirror.
@@skygazer6898 the whole situation is awful.
mr geldof lost the love of his live to another man.
paula lost the love of her life in tragic circumstances.
then paula left us.
then her child.
so mr geldof loses his wife twice & a child.
the whole thing is just unbelievably sad.
& yet people are still hating on paula. it is very sad. i wish they would stop.
that is the planet i am on, since you are asking. ok?
The utter grief Paula felt when the love of her life died I can't even imagine . She loved him from afar for many years. Got on with her life and eventually it happened and she got a relationship with the love of her life only for it to end in such a stressful then tragic way . Rip Paula x
it's me Laura omg 😲- the stories people tell themselves. She broke a family to pieces. There’s good reason why Michaels family so detested her. At the Funeral home Michaels brother stated she slipped a gram of smack into Michaels pocket. That’s not love - that mental illness. How she absolutely broke Bob Geldofs heart when she left and later took his children from him was just evil.
She was a narcissist in love with thrills - the R&R lifestyle and drugs.
Michael started figuring out she was bad news for him but his love for Tiger kept him from leaving and she kept him thoroughly smacked out
Cate Ellington can you enlighten me to what are "the stories people tell themselves?" 🙄
Karma is a bitch for bitches.
She ruined multiple lives. She embraced the paparazzi and tv interviews because they paid her bills whilst complaining they were a nuisance. She did not have a job. Her tv presenter career was over. Bob was the producer of The Big Breakfast. She surely humiliated him on it. Her books are mere fodder. The bad reviews were enough for me to not buy. She threatened suicide to Bob if did not let him have custody of the girls and she threatened Michael she would kill herself if he left her. Michael couldn't take the Bob threats, her whacko bullshit and the pap circus that clung to her that she initiated. Of course Michael didn't want to leave his daughter. She was the one who kept Michael from seeing his daughter whilst she ripped her own family apart in the UK. He killed himself out of despair.
She does a well publicised, revealing paid interview to 60 mins claiming Michael would never have left his daughter so she claims it wasn't suicide. But she kept Tiger from him! How hard was it for her to just fly over so he could see his child? A child she claimed they planned. She didn't. So what does that say about her suicide threats? She was willing to leave her children? Some role model mother.
Laura I think she means you are delusional. Just as delusional as airhead Paula thinks she is sounding intelligent here. Typical groupie trying to get in the pants of her interviewees. David did not want a bar of the stupid woman’s flirt moves.

Wish Michael and paula hadn't died
I wish they never met!!!
@@jrrcorcloudsaremine So true!!! Had they never met, Michael would have kept entertaining us whilst maintaining close ties with his band brothers making music in some form or another. Her, had she never met Michael? Who???
Jrrcor so true !
Than beauty Tiger Lilly was not borned
ingrid ruiz-meijer - Then Geldof's daughter Peaches wouldn't have OD'd on heroin at 25 yrs old like her mother Paula.
I used to love watching Paula on the big breakfast... so it was over with bob ...don’t think he wanted to let her go and who can blame him ... sadly it all back fired , I’m sure if he could go back and change it he would ... but seriously bob Paula and mike .. all good people, .... be careful what you wish for !
It wasn’t over Bob! It was Michael finding out that Paula was lying about not being able to bring Tiger to him... Bob told Michael that wasn’t true! When Michael confronted Paula she refused and talked about marriage and said if he didn’t marry her she would kill Tiger and herself!
Bob produced the show. He paid her wages. She screwed that up and then being with and writing about Michael, paid interviews about them became her next cash cow. Vulture woman.
Never forget that she cried victim when the press compared her to Helena, but it turned out she as behind the stories as a way of getting sympathy from Michael, whom she dragged into her court problems.
She was fabulous as a presenter on TV. Fun..spontaneous..unpredictable...free spirited and just right for those times. So sad she lost her life so young. Not forgetting one of her daughters later...
Just like her dad, really...
@@lilifive6719 you are obviously misinformed about her media popularity and have gotten it completely wrong. Sounds like your inbred hatred towards her has clouded your perception of reality . She was incredibly popular in popular culture and the music scene. But realists know celebrity stars lose their shine as social trends change. She was colourfully unique and fun amidst the grey presenters of her time when everyone was a clone of one another. Paula was a Rebel and original. Intriguingly interesting and exciting. Comformists and Straights will never relate to a free spirit which she was...she was in reality a rare beautiful flower who died in tragic in circumstances....bet you feel good about yourself dishing her memory
@@voicevoice2053 It's not dissing anyone to notice the extreme rewriting of history in this documentary. She had a tragic life and a different personality but to many many people who remember her the documentary is full on creativity
She didn't lose her life. She ended it. Big difference.
@@eheim21she was nothing but a dirty needle junkie that was a legend in her own mind kind of like the dude she broke up her marriage for
Isn't it sad how her daughter and Whitney Houston daughter both practically mirrored the way they each died, it's sad that Paula's life ended so soon, she was highly intelligent and funny and sadly due to lifestyle choices her life ended, RIP X
It's a shame the media never talk about how taking drugs is stupid after famous people die of taking drugs. Plus people who promote drugs online are as dangerous to children as the per verts.
Sins of the parents passing on the addiction...
highly intelligent and yet due to lifestyle choices her life ended ?! do you want to think that bit over some more?
They both clearly adored their mums, none of us are perfect people, we just bumble through life fucking it up. But their daughter's connection with their respective mums is solid and unbreakable. Bless them all.
Exactly. She pulled the suicide card on Bob. That won him custody of their children. She pulled the same stunt on Michael. It was he who suicided. She on the other hand ... without custody of of her children with Bob... and the guilt knowing Michael killed himself because of her public antics... went and took heroin anyway without a thought for the care of her toddler who found her dead body! I'd like to hear those in her defense explain that.
I didn't appreciate just how charismatic and clever Paula was bless her. I was just a teenager while this whole Michael/Paula scandal was happening and as I had such a huge crush on Michael (still do!) I didn't see how he found her attractive. Now I'm their age, I fully understand why Michael loved her. People on here shouldn't judge these two fallen icons, they weren't perfect but they loved and lost badly. Without Paula, there wouldn't be Tiger Lily and she is the image of Michael. RIP Paula & Michael x
Per me anche Pixie è figlia di Michael. È la sua fotocopia ma nessuno osa ammettere la somiglianza!!! Paula e Michael erano già innamorati e si frequentavano quando è nata Pixie. Fate due conti, gente...
She was the coolest chick in the 80s, I loved her. I met her twice and she was lovely, very funny, very quick witted and charming.
Imagine if she was around now… with all the social media etc…
So glad to see a more closer up interview about Paula Yates. there aren't many around
Does anyone not think it weird that Bob Geldof said he was above the law? And that both the guys she had affairs with died? Then she died also?
+M.R “TecNickelSwaG” Carter ...Very much so...
I guess he is above the law
I believe Michael was killed...I have watched the documentary, many things are not clear. There was not investigation carried out.
who did she have an affair with besides Michael
M.R Carter nope. Heroin and suicide take a lot of lives.
Cuz I needed the money.....refreshingly honest
Leanne Clements well what can she say...cos of her great ( eye roll ) body, please !
'Cause I had no job and no wealthy husband to scab from.
@@ahbowakawapoussepousse2712 She had her own career you stupid bitch.
@@DeepScreenAnalysis What career did she have before Bob exactly??
@@ahbowakawapoussepousse2712 She had a career DURING her marriage to Bob. Writer and presenter.
Paula was a beautiful, intelligent and humerus lady. So sad that things went so badly for her. God bless you Paula.
Wow! She seemed such a genuine down to earth funny happy go lucky woman. Her ending was a tragedy but she lived her life with no regrets. We should all take note... RIP lovely lady x
No regrets huh?? So she had no regrets that Michael killed himself because of her infecting his life.
KickAss She didn’t regret drugs? She didn’t regret hurting Bob? She didn’t regret ripping her children from their father? Too bad she killed her self (regrettably) so we can’t ask her. Get real!
@@KDL861 Exactly what I was going to write but it would have gone over this immature child's head. I guess this _kickAss_ person admires her selfish blatant disregard for the men that actually loved her and the children who relied on her to be a nurturing role model.
We should all take note of what???? Screw your way to becoming a name in the papers by publically humiliating your famous husband and neglecting your own children to ruthlessly persue a famous younger gorgeous rockstar who she was just a groupie to???
Yes, what a great example of how to live. I shall try to emulate her in every way.
5:27 It breaks my heart she is deceiving people and deluding herself. I've just come from an interview with Fifi where she said when her parents split, it sent her spiraling into depression, severe weight gain and self abuse. So no Paula. They were just young kids having to cope with fighting parents in a public slinging match. I would not wish that on any child! She seems ok with it though!
you unlike many fools who perceive her at face value.
The media created the horror...the coverage. We weren't there . Only they know the absolute
Truth. She stood up for her beliefs. They're real people with souls. We are all flawed. Strong woman 👩 !
@Mirabelle Starr please do tell us more seeing as you know so much about Paula's life and her children. I can taste your bitterness from your comment, how sad that you feel the need to talk so negatively about someone you really know nothing about
This woman cheated on her husband several times with several men. Nothing about that is beautiful or lovely.
@@jaxmom9043 Exactly. To make matters worse she made a wedge between Michael and his own family.
Paula you was an inspiration...witty beautiful and a unique personality.A great interesting intelligent woman and mother.The world's a darker place without you..RIP Sister x
An inspiration?-if I may ask-what did she inspire you to do?
@@nolanlamond2439 Paula made me realise how short life is...she went after what she wanted and got it.She always made the best of herself ..she loved..laughed and cried..so smart and enchanting..tragic..
Drugs only add to peoples misery they are not the answer to heartbreak..thankyou Nolan
Paula was a bright witty beautiful woman! I loved to watch her on TV . Her personality just shone through the screen! She’s sadly missed!
I miss her refreshing way .just beautiful in her red wedding dress.... totally lost and heartbroken losing Michael. I hope you and peaches are having a laugh and banter 🙏💕🤗
A beautiful highly intelligent women, just as her daughter peaches was, so very sad tragic what happened to them both ❤️
Bullshit!
highly Intelligent..............how about selfish, cunning, manipulating and narcissistic drug addict!
Plain looking. Not beautiful.
I think Peaches was given too much fame just because of who her parents are, but she was pretty talentless. While Paula was highly intelligent and beautiful. I don't agree with taking drugs, but maybe Paula was on a suicide mission after leaving Bob for Michael who then died.
She said in Many Interviews: We wouldn't never leave our child, but he committed suicide, and she die from drugs overdose so, both of them unfortunately left their child, she left 4 children 3 years after his death...
I really liked Paula, she was quirky, intelligent, flirty with a great sense of humour and was very attractive. It all ended so tragically and that is sad.
J⁶6
Attractive isn't a qualifier id personally use especially next to the likes of Helena Christensen or Kylie Minogue but oodles of charisma personality and humor/candid disposition for sure!
I love love love Paula...she was so badly treated by the press and the general public because of her and Micheal, but she was exceptionally nice, witty, intelligent and just lovely.....women are always vilified in these situations, it's so unfair....I think Micheal may never have married Paula, not because he didn't love her but simply because he wasn't the marrying kind....the chemistry between these two was so obvious, you can't deny that kind of attraction, and she was miserable in her marriage apparently...I do feel sorry for Bob because , despite the criticism he gets I've watched interviews with him and to me he seems like a genuinely nice guy and of course he was the one who got left behind...but at the end of the day, love is very powerful and they were only human...my only criticism of Paula is that she overdosed and left her children motherless.....I'm certain she didn't intend to die, but you don't shoot up heroin when you have a 4 yr old in the house, or heavy drugs when you have kids.. you just don't!!!
Pussycatfeathers I agree. Men can do anything but we are still controlled with ridiculous and outdated expectations!
Yes Maye but it will carry on until woman stop being so mean to each. Men are 'well done mate' women are ' that bitch' :)
“Paula, Michael & Bob. Everything You Knew Is Wrong”. Reviews:
_Paula is described as unstable and unreliable. Considering how she dumped people when they were of no further use to her, this description seems pretty accurate. Yates had a borderline personality, kept under control during the marriage with dependable Geldof. However, after 20 years together Yates was having enough of "Saint" Bob._
_Yates started an affair very early in their marriage, which grew into an obsession.From sordid clandestinity the affair developed into tabloid fodder, thanks to Court battles, fights for money and child custody, substance-abuse escalation, delusion and paranoia, etc... Yates wanted too much and everything to suit her needs. Nobody could contradict her or she threatened suicide. Hutchence, sarcastically described as her "part-time" boyfriend, went down first, crushed by the pressure coupled with his fragile personality._
_At the time of his death Yates was not working, her lavish lifestyle being financed by the men in her life and by her deals with tabloids. Whatever shred of sympathy I might have felt for Yates dissolved after reading of the huge amounts she received for interviews and photos of herself and her children. There is much complaint about gutter press, but it sounds like "she" was more than happy to exploit it when in need...After reading this book I found Yates to be a domineering manipulator and not likeable at all_ Dierregi.
Waste of time.
_The author barely knew her. The attempt I think was made to make her look like a victim to sell books. In the end, you loathe her. No victim at all. She relied on the paps and tv interviews for money. After so many threats to Sir Bob and Michael Hutchence she would kill herself Michael did. Such a selfish woman._
- Holly Ryan
_What rubbish! The books by-line is 'Everything you know is wrong' - not the case and I'm not sure that Agar was totally in the know being just a friend of Paula. Definately told from a Paula loving perspective, trying to paint her in a better light but didn’t. She was an adulterer from the beginning of her marriage. Not my cup of tea, told me nothing new, just seemed to drone on._
-Rebecca Stanford.
Pussycatfeathers, well said
She was so gracious and beautiful Rest in paradise Paula
She’s not in paradise😉
@Paula Kean Anyone can talk the talk
Got to admit really dreamed about possibility to ever get marry a man like Michael but he's irreplaceble
Heartbreaking- and a lot of hearts broken back then . As someone else said we can’t wind the clock back even though we were alive and kicking and listening back then
Beautiful highly intelligent such a tragic tale. And to think her peaches has passed heartbreaking ❤️
Yep, she didn’t just ruin Micheal and Bob’s lives, she also ruined her daughters; which in turn will ruin the lives of her grandchildren. Very selfish woman.
e13kid Both of them ruined her life. Bob was a bully that cheated, and Michael got her hooked on drugs.
@@TTUploads she was on drugs way before michael
Memor Esto Source?
@@memoresto3480 Exactly. Read her biography and what Robbe willams said about her. She started Heroin at age 12. Part of Paula's "allure" was that she could offer her many affairs drugs.
As for Hutchence - after he passed, friends noted in articles and biographies lke Lovegrove's that Michael rarely did drugs after his head injury due to having to take a lot of prescription meds. In an old TV Weekly mag with the cover story "Michael Hutchence Slams Heroin Use: "Its a one way road" he says "to me heroin is the scorge of it all. That's the stuff that hurts really bad, in the short and the long term, if you survive. I don't know anyone who hasn't done that stuff who hasn't been affected by it, either by losing friends, or they're just not the same as they were and never will be."
Wish I’d met this beautiful woman. Absolutely adored her. Watched her on BB. What a dam waste of a wonderful life. 😢
Something in her eyes & her demeanor remind me of Princess Diana...so beautifully sad...
I DONT THINK MICHAEL WOULD HAVE EVER MARRIED HER IF THEY WERE ALIVE TODAY.
Let's not tarnish her memory. Only the parties involved really knew what happened.
Smart, sassy, sexy. Amazing lady.
RIP Paula
Sassy cool intelligent beautiful rock n roll RIP
This was before she knew who her real dad was.....I think that probably hit her harder than all the other stuff
It must have been a horrible shock.
She was very articulate and always lovely. Met her in London.
The last I read, was that Hutchence was considering dumping Paula before he died. It makes it all much more sadder and chaotic...
He even called an ex girlfriend the night he died to go to the hotel his mum and sister said she was the love of his life
Nope. As dysfunctional as they were they loved each other.
I saw on vid he actually was in a new relationship I forget her name.
Michael did not even get the opportunity to just be a dad given all the stress and media baggage that came with falling for Mrs Geldof. The depression from being away from his child was too much to bear.
@monklington everjet They were on a world tour!! I had tickets to the Sydney concert. Here is footage of the last rehearsal for that concert BECAUSE HE WAS DEAD THE NEXT MORNING _DUH!!!_
@monklington everjet Speak for yourself. He had a life. A livelihood. Fame. Money. Sadly she was unemployed. A nobody. A divorced woman. She had his baby. My, she had him by the throat. She invited her Ex husband to have him by the throat. Together they suffocated him. Their children were dragged through the British press. The drug fucked manipulative mother is dead. Her manipulated ex husband is raising Michael's child. Michaels family can't even see his only child. DUH.
@monklington everjet She wasted no time to immediately fly to Australia with his child, to put heroin in his jacket (according to Rhett) and trollop around his funeral in her clubbing dress. DUH!!
monklington everjet You missed the bit where she said Bob was preventing her from taking his daughters to Australia. She chose to stay in England and wait for the court date regarding her lost custody of her and Bobs daughters. She wasn’t exactly a stay at home mum to them now was she? She managed to quickly arrange flights to be at Michaels funeral. Many didn’t even know who she was. Media hungry Hussey!!!
@monklington everjet And Paula could have visited at Christmas with at least Tiger Lily.
To the haters, I'd say - look at the personal events over her last three years. How would you have come through that?
Brilliant woman...always loved her humour and candid personality!
Que pena que o amor deles foi interrompido aqui na terra,esperam que possam estar juntos e felizes em outra dimensao
I respected Paula because unlike standard dour faced Brits, she was a passionate, spirited person with kind hearted wit, charisma and the nerve to go after what she wanted.
+teamcrumb Brits aren't a race, so it can't be racism.
+Messylin Where are you from?
Messylin: That's as pathetic as saying that every French person is arrogant and obnoxious, or every American is loud and brash. You're obviously not from England if you think that Brits are 'standard and dour faced'. You need to grow up.
+leicestergirl63 - Britain always punishes its eccentrics: they did it to Oscar Wilde and they did it to Paula Yates.
She cheated instead of terminating the relationship with Bob, he was driving her crazy yet like any strong woman with integrity, she didn't fight to be free. She without hesitation, cheated, rubbed in it bobs face with those interviews and went out doing heroin on her daughters tenth birthday. *Am I wrong??*
Red hair did not suit her .. She is about 36-37 here and she looks at least 45. She is an attractive lady and funny, but I don't think Michael would have married her... He seemed to move along every few years with someone new.. I can't help but think that drugs warped both of them. It definitely aged MH judging by the last few videos right before his death, he looked tired and worn out its very sad how it all ended .
I agree...he looked like he was dying.....Drugs are the Devil!
Suzy Roc I think he loved his daughter he had with Paula,but I agree I don't think he was going to marry her and settle down.he would have eventually moved on
Suzy Roc They were both breeding mice on Mars for the Iranian Government and they were gonna tell the world so they were assassinated by Zopo Toopakaff 👽👽👽👽👾👾👾👾👾👾👽👽👽👻👻👻👻🐁🐁🐁🐁🐁🐁🐁🐁🐁🐁🐁🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀
Suzy Roc many like myself believe her and Michael were murdered
kittyCat Furbabies what are your reasons for thinking that?
FOI UMA GRANDE PERDA É TRAGÉDIA DA FAMÍLIA ....MUITO TRISTE DEMAIS !!😭😭😭
Honest, unique, cute.....she was a character. Some of the pictures of her when she first started seeing Bob showed a very cool and pretty girl. She was more intellectual than people gave her credit for, Im sure she didnt see her life going the way it did. Do any of us?
It's quite predictable, actually. Young girl from a troubled family background marries older "bad boy", hmmmm, how does that usually turn out? In drinking/addiction/dysfunction and infidelity.
1997 was a horrible year! First Diana, then Michael. 😢
Lots of people have slagged her down on TH-cam and alot of women are the perpetrators.She was one beautiful intelligent Lady who obviously fellout of love with Sir Bob and fell for another Guy.
I couldn't agree with you more. Paula was such a lovely lady and she couldn't help how she felt 💜
These women are real, true Karen’s. Always hating. Paula wasn’t perfect but who is?!
I loved her books. Really funny & deadpan.
loved her she fell in love and was loved such a sad story people are cruel to her but she was a diamond and wish she had been my friend we would of been mates xxx
Co dependency
I would love for people to take a moment to understand what a talented woman Paula was. She carried Bob in the early days,and he was a bad hisband, even making her to ask him to use the phone in her own home! She fell in love with a man who had waning fame and brain damage. If he didn’t want to be with her, he would have left. She spent her life with him trying to be enough, and Hutchence was still womanizing even when Paula was pregnant. I agree that she used the press for money and spinned it to get Michael to leave Helena, but tbh, they loved each other and she suffered so badly with grief when he died. They both behaved wildly, but I really wish people would appreciate their is a young woman, their daughter, and I’m sure everyone’s views are just kept to themselves. Maybe they were both wrong for each other at the time, but they both suffered, and Bob Geldof punished them both. The whole family has suffered. It’s time to let Michael, Paula, and Peaches completely rest in peace and stop the blame game.
I have never liked Geldof .
So you're saying she was the one who called the paparazzi on her and Michael so Michael and Helena would break up?
Bob geldof is a rotten man. He killed the both of them. He put Micheal Hutchinson through so much depression. He took his child and raised her as his own. You would think oh that great, but it's not what Micheal wanted and he didn't stand a chance. Micheals family have nothing to do with Tiger lily because of her narrcisstic step father. He tries to control them. He didn't even let Tiger lily go to Micheals mother's funeral. Who is her grandmother. Don't fall for his martyr persona. Hes a fully fledged narrcissist.
I’m certain Michael was very enamoured with Paula, but I don’t think that he was in any fit state to be contemplating a serious relationship or fatherhood. And I think that Paula was very naïve in thinking that she could toss Bob out and bring Michael in and make her perfect little family and Bob wouldn’t object to losing his home and his wife and his daughters to another man. The sad thing really is that Paula rather than being a stabilising influence on Michael threw herself wholeheartedly into the sex and drugs and rock and roll, when Michael was so lost, and got so lost, and even without all the stress of the Geldof’s woes, I think that Michael was headed to his tragic demise anyway, Paula just hastened it along.
@@desertrose1226 Bob is my f*cking hero, and has been for over 40 years.
I DONT KNOW WHAT THEY SAW IN HER
Me neither...I don’t mean to be harsh, but come on...
Yes, she was ugly and stupid.
@ Anna Kcmb Me either!🤔
@@diana-cy4kj Agree!
@@isabelveidt655 Yes, I think so, as well.
Pixie has to be Hutchence’s daughter, they look so alike
Pixie was Geldof's daughter. Michael Hutchence's Daughter is Tiger Lily
Michele Shipp Officially, yes. But the ressemblance between pixie and Michael is just too suspicious
GREG Hubbard interesting. where did you read that?
GREG Hubbard wow, thanks for the info. I’m not surprised
None of the kids look like her
GerryAgar bears so much responsibility for how much went wrong.
Definitly. Before Paula sold all the pervy stories for mola, she told many mags that Michael was depressed from all the lawsuits and that he never got over the false accusation from nanny Anita and Gerry. l read somewhere that the Nanny's bf got a record deal right after she claimed to have found drugs - a claim she later retracted.
So lovely...so intelligent and honest. Paula, had she lived, would have gone on to do amazing things on TV etc. RIP amazing lady x
It's difficult being a woman, men leave their wives and children all the time and start new lives. Perhaps Paula should have had an affair with Michael and got him out of her system, the physical side does not last forever. Also, it is well documented that Micheal was not into marriage.. Bob Geldof could not bear to lose her and take his children to Australia, It was a very complex situation. It is clear to see from that interview why Bob still loved Paula and he states that very clearly in a recent interview. He said she was all the things he wasn't, and that he needed that in his life. It is very difficult when someone loves you too much, as it should be possible for a woman to be free and walk away if that is what someone wants. Men do it all the time, and it is more accepted by society, not fair.
verdade
She’s fabulous ❤️
When I read about Paula and her daughter, all I can think is that heroin is shit.
She mentions money alot. Not love. Not family. Money. She wrote the book because she needed the money she says. Wow. She disrespects journalists, newspapers and magazines yet they are the ones who interviewed her and funded her circus livelihood.
They all have to earn money, and writers do it the hard way. Many authors don't make any money and there was no guarantee that Paula would either. Not all books are made into Hollywood blockbusters.
@@juanitarichards1074 She was a tv presenter and lost her job twice. The big Breakfast was produced by Geldolf. What a fool she made of him. She relied on Geldof for her lifestyle. She was desperate for money now. After Geldolf's divorce settlement she had to fend for herself. Best go for a stake in Michael's hard earned wealth via a baby. So she wrote a book..... Champagne taste and lifestyle which she divorced herself from. Did she really think she would make a ton of money from a book about her life that nobody really cared about? What was to tell?? Her great parenting? She made money from tell all interviews. She had no employment. She had Michael's money. When he died what did she have? What did she have as employment?
@@ahbowakawapoussepousse2712 She had herself. And Geldof constantly humiliated her and was unfaithful to her. The marriage was essentially over before she ever met Michael, and it's clear she genuinely loved him. She died without him.
@UCg9xH7LIAys87Y0AckZJ64w I read a biography years ago about her and Bibs marriage. Michael could have turned her away any time he wanted to.....but he didn't want to. When I've been in love and deeply committed in a happy relationship NOTHING could tempt me away from my guy. For women it's never about simply fancying someone. If they are unfaithful it's because they are not fulfilled in their marriage and have fallen in love with somebody else. Men do it just for sex. We always hear them say when caught "she meant nothing. It was just sex". You will never hear a woman say that. Bob did not love Paula and she knew it. He was unfaithful to her all through his marriage, as all entitled rock stars are.
@@juanitarichards1074 Why would Michael turn away sex thrown at him??? He is a man. Sounds like *you think* you are an expert on all women!!!! Good luck with that. You didn't respond to my point. She had a fling with Michael before she married Geldof and was warned to stay away from Michael. She didn't. My question was how did Bob humiliate her?? Are you referring to her autobiography? There is no mention there!!!!
Her relationship with Bob Geldolf is sporadically discussed. It does leave the reader a bit confused as to why exactly they divorced???? She would bring up little details that portrayed him in a negative light. Example is when she hung up a photo of Michael Hutchence on their fridge (which is just a bitch thing to do no matter how she explains it) and Bob wrote the word cunt on Michael's forehead. This is printed for the world to read. Humiliate Bob. She certainly achieved that. But you say he abused her. She never wrote or told of any such thing. When?
God Bless, Paula and Michael and of course Tiger Lilly. God Bless your essence......
God love her ,truly amazing beautiful soul, sorly missed
Paula seemed so nice,and seemed at ease in an interview.
Shameful is how l would say she was treated,and,so sad is the way she died,not to mention Peaches...
Got the book & loved it too
Does it explain her relationship with Bob well? From the start til the end?
Lel Uchiha it’s respectful to him....it’s worth a read most definitely 💛god bless her x
Maureen Maureen Doesn’t really answer my question. I want something that details her relationship to Bob from 1976 until 1994. I guess I wanna know if she loved him at first and then simply fell out of love?
What is the name of the book?
The media were nasty to her and she was a nice enough kid.
0:04 - how David Brent is she here! 🤣
How many times did she mention money?? Nobody forced her to have a huge mortgage.
And Michael was paying for everything!!!
Very sad she's gone. Intelligent and very funny.
So beaitiful my icon
Paula loved her children with all her heart.Everyone makes mistakes💞Michael was a breath of fresh air for Paula💞He gave her a sense of purpose and inspiration💞I do however think that she was tearfully more in love with Michael than he was with her💞She had settled down and he was very wild and i believe didnt want to settle down yet💞I believe Bob is a grest man caring for all four children💞Tiger is a bonsai Michael as Paula used to joke💞A perfect little button indeed💞Paula was charming, and beautiful with a wonderful sense of style and home.She suffered with depression as did Michael but the two heartbroken souls just bought eachother down instead of strengthening one another.All the best to her children💞
Natalie Harvey taking drugs many times is a mistake?
if she loved her children she would not be droogged and kids would feel loved..but her daughter was overdosed- which means that SHE was a miserable mother, for which was important only seks with unmarried yound men !!!
Natalie Harvey Natalie well said you have empathy like me! I did drugs in my former years wow I'm so bad! Not!!!!!!!
Andromeda Gala, after Paula passed away, not while she was alive.
He who casts rhe first stone! They were all lovely people on their own right 😣
I loved Paula Yates. Rest in peace Paula xxx
That breaks my heart. Before Michael she didn't even drink. if their marridge ( hers and Bob's) had been still going,her and Peaches would still be with us - how fecking sad!
?? you might want to read her biography written by her. Paula was doing heroin at the age of 12 by her on admission and ex-lovers said she always offered drugs. Read the interview iwth Robbie willams about her. He said that she frequently did cocaine while publicly saying she was against it.
A very intelligent interesting lady x RIP Paula,Michael and Peaches xxx
Depuis que Paula s'est introduite dans la vie de Michael, les malheurs se sont succédés et ont abouti par la suite à la déchéance de notre star. Elle avait beaucoup de problèmes avec son ex mari concernant la tutelle de ses enfants.
Beautiful broken misunderstood.R.I.PARADISE Paula Michael & Peaches.🕊🕊🕊
She was so funny and delightful. A true free spirit.
miss you Paula....x
Loved her x
Damn shame four little girls lost their mother and geldof is not as nice as people think
I really liked her, she was completely honest, even when she should not have been. The media had a lot to answer for, this is a great example of her being honest when she maybe should not have been, "is there anything not in the book?" YES, loads ha ha, what a great girl, miss her
They were already a couple in the 90's? Does he talk about Micahel in the book? which one?
I miss them both
I absolutely adored Paula x
She was nuts!! But she underestimated geldof whose twice as nuts. She gambled and lost. A narcissist like geldof would never allow a humiliation like that go unanswered. He got well stuck in and made their lives hell. Hutchence should have run a mile when geldof brought the heat. No fun fucking around with a narc and hutchence could not cope with the drama.
I totally admired Paula for being honest beautiful & str8 forward.. ... Can't believe the way it all ended... 😔
Loved her
Should have stayed with Bob he truly loved her and he was rich and handsome
