Peaches Geldof's new husband Max Drummey has vowed to avoid meeting her father Sir Bob for as long as he can, according to a report.

The US musician has travelled to Britain for a tour with his band Chester French, leaving Peaches to face the wrath of her dad alone in Majorca.

A source close to Drummey told The Mirror: "He knows Bob is absolutely furious. So he's quite pleased to be coming to the UK while Bob is still in Majorca.

"He hopes to put off coming face-to-face with Bob for as long as possible. Peaches is with her dad and Max hopes she'll calm him down before they meet."

Drummey admitted that Sir Bob is "mad" over their wedding at the weekend.

The couple shocked their family and friends by tying the knot in Las Vegas earlier this month.
