Carl Barat: 'It Wouldn't Surprise Me If Babyshambles Split Up'

Dirty Pretty Things frontman Carl Barat has been quoted as saying that he wouldn't be surprised if Pete Doherty's Babyshambles split up.

Barat's comments about his former Libertines band mate come amid reports of a fall out between Doherty and Babyshambles guitarist Mik Whitnall.

A disagreement between the pair has apparently been blamed on Babyshambles withdrawal from a festival in Belgium last weekend.

Speaking to the Mirror newspaper, Barat said: "It wouldn't surprise me if they split."

Despite his comment, and Barat's recent revelation that the Libertines have “unfinished business”, the Dirty Pretty Things frontman said if he and Doherty met “it will be just to say hello."

Its rumoured that Mik\'s going to be part of Amy Winehouses tour band? Hope not, her tour band can actually play their instruments.
