British rocker Doherty gets drug ultimatum

Kate Moss
British rock star Pete Doherty, partner of supermodel Kate Moss, hinted during a court hearing overnight that she had given him an ultimatum over his drug use.
“The people I’m closest to have had enough. They say it’s drugs or them,” he told a court in London, where he was appearing for a review of a drug treatment order.
The Babyshambles frontman, 28, added that “a lot has changed in the last week” without elaborating further.
At a concert last week he referred to Moss, with whom he has had an on-off relationship since 2005, as his “fiancee”, fuelling speculation that the pair are set to marry.
Doherty arrived 30 minutes late for his hearing at Thames Magistrates’ Court, east London, but was praised by District Judge Jane McIvor for showing “more than cooperation” with the legal proceedings.
The troubled star has repeatedly sought treatment for drug addiction in countries including Britain, France and Thailand.
In December he was fined $1800 and banned from driving for four months for possessing illegal drugs, including crack cocaine and heroin.
Earlier this month, Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards predicted Doherty’s drug habits could kill him and warned Moss.
“My advice for Pete Doherty is that he should shut … up and leave her, ” he told the New Musical Express magazine.
“I don’t know the man, all I know is he’s pushing his luck and there it is, but so is Kate, who I know very well.
“Kate wants to play with bad boys and she’s done one, and then another one, and then another one. Badabing, badabing, badaboom. She’ll live, the boys will die.”
