Johnny Depp warned Pete - July 05
Johnny Depp warned Pete Doherty to quit his wild antics for the sake of girlfriend Kate Moss.
The Hollywood heartthrob - who enjoyed a four-year romance with the stunning supermodel before they split in 1998 - reportedly feared for Kate’s future if she stayed with troubled Pete. The ’Pirates of the Caribbean’ star - a former hell raiser who was once notorious for his wild man ways - is said to have advised the drug-addicted Babyshambles singer to focus on raising his son by model Lisa Moorish.

A source told Britain’s Daily Mirror newspaper the pair met when Johnny came to London for the premiere of his new movie, ’Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’. The source revealed: "Johnny is still close to Kate and they’ve remained friends. Since she had her daughter Lila Grace he’s been increasingly concerned for her and wants to make sure she is in good hands." He added: "He had obviously heard about Pete’s wild, rock star antics so he had a real heart to heart with him. Johnny was saying how having children had changed his life and that Pete should focus on raising his son Estille and on being a good father."

Earlier this month it was rumoured Kate had dumped the rocker after he got involved in a street brawl. She reportedly ordered the self-confessed heroin addict move out of her home following his fight in a London street.

Biography

It’s hard to believe that just a couple of years ago we didn’t even know who Pete Doherty was now that not a day goes by when another entry to the PD catalogue of disasters is published in the tabloids.

A long and drawn out battle with drugs, an especially fiery relationship with Croydon’s favourite daughter and any number of bust ups and arrests has made the singer/songwriter one of Britain’s most recognisable faces (all be it a screwed up, sweaty zombie face).

Born on March 12 1979 in Hexham, Northumberland and living at various times in Liverpool, Shepherd’s Bush, Coventry, Dorset, Cyprus and Russia, Pete Doherty first came to the public’s attention as one half of the singing songwriting duo who fronted Britain’s must see band, The Libertines, who kick started the country’s new garage rock scene in 2002/03.

Debauched backstage shenanigans and frantic but brilliant shows saw The Libertines hit the headlines time and time again and their debut album, Up The Bracket, shot up the charts. However, the band’s success was to be short lived and numerous problems, between Pete and the rest of the band (specifically with best friend Carl Barat - the pair met when they became flatmates in Stoke Newington) saw them part ways but not before Pete hit the headlines for drink and drug problems which caused him to steal from his bandmates to feed his habit.

It was around this time that Lisa Moorish gave birth to Doherty’s child, Astile but, rather than settling down Pete carried on taking heroin, selling his ’My Drug Hell’ stories to any and every tabloid to pay for his out of control habit before being put in to several rehab clinics (including a Thai monastery), none of which have changed his ways.

Nonetheless he has managed to forge a career on his own, first working with Wolfman on For Lovers then forming Babyshambles, initially as a way to make money for.you guessed it! Now trying to get clean with the aid of Naltroxene after an arrest for assault, which resulted in some jail time as well as a curfew and constant supervision Pete is reportedly set to marry supermodel Kate Moss.
