Pete Doherty – back in rehab

• 25th Jul 2006

Just a few days after Doherty meets up for a drink with former Libertine bandmate Carl Barat, Babyshambles are forced to pull out of their performance at Ibiza Rocks so that Pete can go back into rehab today, according to the BBC. This is Doherty’s fifth stint in rehab; during his stay, he will be refitted with an opiate-suppressing device as part of his treatment. This seems to be just one more chapter in the topsy turvy world of the ex-Libertine, and it seems the world's press continues to speculate over how much longer it can all go on for.
