The dealers, Jonny Blagrove and Cara Burton, also taped Amy Winehouse smoking crack in her London flat last January as part of a sting operation.
Detectives found the clip of Peaches on a PC memory stick containing the Winehouse scenes which hit the headlines in January.
Cops believe scruffy Londoner Blagrove and his girlfriend wanted to use the Peaches video in a different sting. A source said: “Someone had tried to delete the footage from the memory stick but officers were able to recover it.”
They then arrested Blagrove and Burton and found a long list of names and numbers of their alleged celebrity clients after searching the couple’s east London home.
The couple were bailed and are set to return to the police station for further questioning this month. Police have already quizzed Winehouse in a two-hour interview in February over the video and grilled her about her connections with Blagrove.
Now detectives want to hear Peaches’ version of events.
A police source said: “She will be interviewed some time this week and asked to explain what is happening in the video and why she is handing money over to the couple.
“It is all part of a large investigation into alleged drugs dealing.”
The existence of the secret video will come as a shock to Peaches, who did not know she was being targeted by the cunning pair.
Peaches’ mother, Paula Yates, overdosed on heroin in 2000 at age 40. You would think homegirl wouldn’t want to repeat her mother’s mistakes.
