Bob Geldof's wayward daughter Peaches collapsed earlier this month referable to a heroin overdose, a new report claims.
According to Britain's News of The World newspaper, the 19-year-old -- whose mum Paula Yates died of a heroin overdose at 41 -- was experimenting with the deadly drug for the first time.
It is believed she did not inject heroin -- one of the near dangerous shipway of pickings it -- but het up and inhaled it through a rolled-up bank note.
Friends feared she was following the same path as tragic TV star Paula, who died in 2000. But she has told them last Sunday's drama had been a massive wake-up call -- and that she is sledding into rehab.
A source told the paper, "She was in a terrible state�not able to breathe for several transactions. She took a serious risk with her life and none of us could believe how far she went.
"Even Peaches can't believe what she's through with, and wants to commit it behind her.
"She was desperate for her pop Bob not to determine out, and she has realized it can't take place again."
Her spokesman Ray Levine refused to comment.
Another source said, "Peaches will go into rehab but she won't be a prima donna. She will go in to clean up her act."
Peaches collapsed at a flat in Camden, north London, and was revived by an ambulance crew.
"She is adamant she won't follow her mother into an early grave," said the source.
