In a bizarre twist, Brand is reported to be a close friend of Kate’s drug-addled ex-lover Pete Doherty and his former Libertines bandmate Carl Barrat. The comic is a recovering drug addict himself and has not touched drugs since 2002. He said: "I realise that if I take drugs again it will quickly destroy my life. I had a big appetite for them - but I can’t do it all again, or I won’ t get all the things I want."
Kate kicked and punched Pete - May 22, 2020
Kate Moss kicked and punched ex-lover Pete Doherty after he injected heroin in front of a film crew. The supermodel allegedly lost her temper and attacked the drug-addled rocker as the pair talked in the street outside her London home.
She was furious after hearing the troubled singer had injected drugs backstage after a gig in Berlin - then squirted a syringe full of his blood over cameramen filming his Babyshambles bandmates. Doherty told a Swiss newspaper: "She was furious. She hit me until I was black and blue. She whacked me with her fists and feet. "I’m OK but she injured my finger."
Meanwhile, Doherty has been axed by his record label, Rough Trade, following the stunt. An industry insider told the Sunday Mirror newspaper: "That was the last straw for Rough Trade. They couldn’t put up with that sort of behaviour any longer. "There’s only so much they could take. and Pete’s gone way beyond that. Rough Trade backed Pete as much as they could." A Babyshambles spokesman has confirmed the band are not on the label anymore.
Kate is dating Russell Brand - May 18, 2020
Kate Moss is rumoured to be dating British TV star Russell Brand. The troubled supermodel was spotted partying with MTV presenter Brand - who has battled drug problems - in London on Tuesday night (16.05.06).
The pair and Kate’s pal Sadie Frost watched Brand’s comedy routine at a pub in the capital before heading to a charity event at Annabel’s nightclub. They later went to Brand’s home. Friends of Kate - who lost several lucrative modelling contracts and checked into rehab after shocking images of her snorting cocaine were printed last year - say the pair are smitten with each other.
A source is quoted in The Sun newspaper as saying: "Kate finds Russell hilarious and he has the sort of rock star looks she’s attracted to. "But they have deeper things in common. He is recovering from drugs, booze and sex addiction problems. Kate has been through her cocaine scandal and is getting over junkie Pete Doherty. So they have a lot to talk about." The insider added: "They spent the night together and have been on the phone since. All Kate’s friends think he is the perfect man for her."

After a series of shoots for teenage magazines, it was Harper’s Bazaar that finally launched her into the international arena. In 1992, she became the Face of Calvin Klein. Moss originally spearheaded the controversial "waif" look which critics claimed encouraged anorexia in impressionable teenagers. The girl from Croydon, who once said she "might’ve been a bank manager" now divides her time between London and LA, where she is often seen at The Viper Rooms, the controversial club owned by her one-time actor boyfriend Johnny Depp.
She has appeared in several notable documentaries about the fashion world and in 1995, released a hard-back book of pictures entitled simply "Kate". Having checked into London’s £300-a-day Priory Clinic in November 1998 suffering from exhaustion, Kate emerged refreshed the following January to announce that she had spent the last decade modelling "drunk". She told The Face magazine, "That’s what you do. You always have champagne before the shows. Always. Even at ten in the morning. It got to the point one time when we were [saying], ’We’re not going out without any champagne’."
Losing the Calvin Klein contract to fellow Brit Lisa Ratliffe in 1999, Kate has now taken on the status of fashion icon. In the May 2000 issue of Vogue, she played muse to a variety of the most cutting edge artists and photographers. In London she is still represented by Storm. Written in 2000
