UPDATE: I have spoken to the person who had made the initial thread and he has agreed to take it down to prevent further comments.
This post was more aimed for the crowd of people who “knew” Lorne and was feeling sorry for him because of his own downfall. He has been dead since 2020, so hearing people still praising him in 2025 was the straw that broke the camels back for me.
Sorry that this is not really bass related, but this has to be said.
Just writing this to make things clear about me and Lorne Peakman with the basses / guitars that I was selling. I was hoping to not have to open old wounds, but with the alarming number of comments I have seen about me and my family, I had to get things out.
First and foremost, I am his BIOLOGICAL DAUGHTER! Not his mistress that he crawled back to after he was kicked out of our family home.
He was also not the man you all thought he is on the internet. He was an abusive father, who had abused myself and my three brothers. Emotionally and physically. He had 5 kids that we know of, one of them from a previous relationship before he was with my mother which he was no longer allowed to contact. We had to have the police come around for months to keep him away from us and to have him removed. I was the one who had called the police on him to be removed after he had hit one of my brothers and spat on my baby brother who was in my mother’s arms.
Amongst all this, he had been trying to break into our home, threatened to k!ll himself over text to me at 14 years old and kept manipulating one of my brothers to give him information by bribing him with money and video games. He was also the person who would not get a job and would claim benefits for all his life. It was to the extent that he was wanting to keep my severely autistic brother to stay in nappies for an extra £5 a month. That being said, he had never once paid any form of child support, which my mother never asked for from him before rumours are spread about that, the only money we saw from him was on our birthdays and Christmas before he realised his manipulation tactics would not work.
He would use my mother’s money, that she had worked hard for, to fund for his luxuries before he was thrown out of the family home. That includes all the BCRs, PlayStation consoles and alcohol. My mother and him was together for 17 years before all this happened, she tried to help him but he never accepted it.
Towards the end of his life, he had stopped trying to contact us and manipulate us into bringing him back home and was focusing on his then girlfriend, Sascha Bennett. They had been doing drugs and drinking for what I can only assume was a few years until one night, Sascha Bennett had left his flat, leaving him to die alone. The coroner’s depicted his death to be drugs and alcohol.
We had previously tried to sell the basses and guitars he had left behind due to taking up space within our home and they were the ones he had left behind. He had already claimed all of his belongings in the first few years, so whatever was left was stuff he didn’t want.
For everyone who don’t want to read all that,
TLDR; He was an abusive alcoholic that broken down his own marriage and family by not helping himself and who had used my mother’s money to buy all the basses / guitars in his collection, which we then sold off to clear space as we don’t want anything of his left here.
I have now said everything about what type of person he was now please stop spreading misinformation about me and my family.
