>> She was brought up in North Wales in a showbusiness family
by her mother, the former showgirl, actress and writer of erotic novels
Heller Thornton (Toren), and the television star Jess Yates, known
as "the Bishop", who presented the ITV religious programme Stars On
Sunday. Her father was 16 years older than his wife and their marriage
was unconventional. In an unsettled childhood, Paula from the age
of eight lived mostly with her mother, including spells in Malta and
Majorca. In 1997, DNA testing showed that her father was not Jess
Yates but Hughie Green, an English game show host - a man she despised.
She died on her daughter Peaches 10th birthday (17 September) (18
September 2000) Her ex-husband Bob Geldof was given temporary care
of Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily, her orphaned daughter, after she was
made a ward of court .
>> In 1997, Hughie Greene's claim that he was Paula Yates'
natural father was confirmed by DNA tests. Until 1997, Paula Yates
believed that her biological father was her mother's husband, Jess
Yates. However a DNA test proved that her father was Hughie Green,
presenter of "Opportunity Knocks". On 8 November 2000, an inquest
decided that death was due to "non-dependent abuse of heroin" - ie
that she was not a habitual, addictive user.
