    Pete Doherty Attempted Suicide In Rehab

    Pete Doherty tried to commit suicide during his latest stint in rehab, according to his personal minder Johnny Jeannevol.

    According to Jeannevol the Babyshambles singer downed an enitre bottle of pills after learning of his ex-girlfriend Kate Moss' new relationship with Kills frontman Jamie Hince.

    He tells a Sunday tabloid, "Pete's been really wound up over Kate showing off her new man.

    "He saw an opportunity to take an overdose and took it. He told me he didn't know what the pills were but thought ‘**** it' and took them all."

    However, Jeannevol adds that Doherty has now been drug-free for six weeks following his departure from the Clouds clinic in Wiltshire.

    "Now he's out and happy. He's trying to keep off the drugs and needs his own space," he explains.

    • wonder how much Johnny Jeannevol got paid for that story? after all he’s supposedly slept with amy winehouse and sold that to the tabloids and he’s being requestioned over that balcony suicide/murder. I’m sure there would be plenty of unknown pills lying around in a rehab too. sounds a bit iffy to me
