London - Tiger Lily Hutchence is to live with Sir Bob Geldof for the rest of her childhood, the deputy Official Solicitor confirmed last night.

The four-year-old was left an orphan when her mother, Paula Yates, died of a drug overdose in September. Her pop star father, Michael, the INXS frontman, was found hanged in a Sydney hotel three years ago.

The order for Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily Hutchence to remain with Sir Bob and her three half-sisters was made by Mrs Justice Bracewell last Thursday. The girl is to remain a ward of court for a further 12 months as standard practice. Mrs Justice Bracewell refused permission for Ms Tina Hutchence, sister of the Australian star, to apply for an order for Tiger Lily to live with her in California.
