This is typical of the way the gutter rats who call themselves journalists work, especially in regard to "celebrities". Build them up, put them on a pedestal, then kick the pedestal away spouting righteous indignation. The cult of celebrity made this woman what she was and ultimately broke her.

Ohh the blame culture

If in fact she died of self administered drugs overdose there is no one to blame except herself ! thousands, no millions face harder realities than any star does everyday of their lives yet don't resort to drugs.

I'm not blaming anyone, and yes of course if a person takes an overdose it's nobody's fault but their own. I was merely having a rant at the press and the way they delight in building people up then bringing them down.

So someone who has had the pain of growing up without her mum due to an overdose does the same to her children

If this is true and she has overdosed then what a f&@king waste of a privileged life!! This world is cruel enough for children without having a selfish "mum" adding to it!

Rant over.

as people have said if you take crap like that then your just asking for trouble, and then people that have said what a good mam blah blah surley she would stop injecting smoking class A drugs for her children, if it was some normal 25 yr old that this has happend to i dont think many would care cause she would be just another junkie but cause shes a "celebrity" people seem to feel sorry for her

Addiction is like a disease. Of all the people in the world, our community should understand the difficulty of quitting an addictive substance for any reason. Let's not judge too harshly without a full understanding of the situation, and have some sympathy for the tragedy of her death and the family she left behind.

The day I started this post I had my own ideas.
I believed that she had comitted suicide by drug overdose.
Whilst people will say that is selfish, why, look at non celebs and their problems and compare, there is one main thing to remember.
Regardless of what celeb status, lifestyle or money she had or didn't have she had problems.
Problems of the mind, mental health issues and for many there is no cure and little reprieve.
Her mum committed suicide, and she never ever got over that, she became a wild child, she rebelled,
She then tried to settle down,build a family, but that obviously didn't help either.
Yes it can be said she has done the same to her children, but I believe in her mind she thought she was doing what
was best . Her babies are too young to remember her, had she struggled on and become a useless mum, total junkie, jailed
or dead her children would have then gone through what she has mentally, so by ending it now she has saved them
from that.
I am not saying this is my view, but I believe this is how she was thinking.

I have no sympathy for a smackhead who overdoses. Be it a joe bloggs or a celebrity. I do have sympathy for her family though.

I've have a bit of sympathy for someone who overdoses, there is usually a horrible story behind how they ended up in that position.

But I've got lot more sympathy for the kids, very sad for them, and will stick with them, affecting them for the rest of their lives. Hopefully history doesn't repeat itself again with them.
