Pete Doherty Dating The ‘New Kate Moss’?

Pete Doherty’s manager has denied reports the troubled singer has started dating the ‘new Kate Moss’, model Portia Freeman.
According to a report in today’s Mail On Sunday, the 19-year-old is ‘besotted’ with the Babyshambles singer.
A pal of Doherty says, “Pete is seeing Portia and he really likes her. They get to see each other at weekends when Pete isn’t touring with his band Babyshambles.
“She went back to Pete’s after watching him play a gig in December. It’s early days and they are enjoying each other’s company.”
According to the pal, it is hoped Freeman – who bears a resemblance to Doherty’s ex-Kate Moss – will help Doherty finally kick drugs.
“Portia is probably the best thing to happen to Pete. She is a very clean-living girl and not at all into drugs,” they say.
“He is trying to stick with his rehab programme and trying to stay clean. He is having regular counselling sessions and has been advised not to jump headfirst into any relationship. He wants to take things slowly.”

However, according to Doherty’s manager Andy Boyd commented, “Obviously I don’t know about everything Pete does. I’m not saying that he and Portia don’t know each other – I just don’t think they are in a relationship.”
