Paula Yates Is Found Dead
September 17, 2000
PAULA YATES has been found dead in her London home. The former host of the BBC's Big Breakfast was probably best known as the former wife of both Bob Geldof and the late INXS frontman, Michael Hutchence. It was claimed by Yates at the time that Hutchence's suicide was due to the stress put on the couple by her former husband, Geldof. Cause of death is not known at this time, though reports are circulating that Yates had been recently treated for depression. She leaves behind 4 children and a world of people who'll miss her inane banter with popstars.
