Newly married and pregnant... inside Tiger Lily Hutchence's 'refreshingly normal' life - and why Sir Bob Geldof was determined to protect her from her parents' tragic fate


Tiger Lily - the only child of late rock stars and adopted by Bob Geldof - has found stability in a family whose backdrop is a world away from the wild antics of her party-loving parents.

These ’refreshingly normal’ family dynamics, as a friend refers to them, are certainly a world away from the tragedy that shaped the early years of Tiger Lily who, with her intense brown eyes and curving, scowling smile, is at times the mirror image of her famous father. Sadly, it is believed that while Tiger Lily has had sporadic contact with Michael’s sister Tina, an author now in her sixties who today lives in LA, and his half-brother Rhett, who is now based in Bali, they are not close and neither attended last weekend’s wedding. Today, Mark is head of global institutional business development at the investment management firm Metropolis Capital, while Gillian, who also studied fashion design and trained as a textile conservator, is a highly respected interiors and renovations expert.
