Pete Doherty’s manager has rubbished reports that the Babyshambles tried to commit suicide whilst in rehab.

The News of the World published an interview with Doherty’s ‘minder’ Johnny Jeannevol who claimed the singer took an overdose at the Clouds House clinic in Wiltshire.

But speaking to the BBC, Doherty’s manager Andy Boyd says the claims are totally untrue. He also denied that Jeannevol was ever Pete’s minder.

The Sunday paper had quoted Doherty as saying: "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... took them all. He doesn't care what drugs do to him - in fact, he likes finding out."

Doherty left the clinic after six weeks of treatment for his ongoing drugs problems earlier this autumn.

  • I wonder how much Jeannevol made out of selling this bunch of lies, the parasite.
