Kate
Moss Denies Marriage
Claims
Kate
Moss
has denied marrying
Babyshambles singer
Pete
Doherty
while on holiday in
Thailand.
The
model and rock star
reportedly made a formal
commitment to each other
in a beach ceremony on
New Year's
Day.
But
Kate Moss's spokesman
denied the pair had tied
the knot, and were
simply on holiday on the
island of
Phuket.
"Contrary
to various entirely
false media reports,
there has not been any
kind of marriage
ceremony in Thailand.
She is on holiday," he
said.
The
couple were photographed
apparently celebrating
their "ceremony" with
champagne at a villa
overlooking a beach on
the island.
Kate
Moss, 32, was pictured
barefoot in a silver
dress, while Pete
Doherty, 27, wore a
black suit and his
trademark trilby
hat.
Wedding
services including
Buddhist prayers, the
pouring of blessed water
and entwining of flower
garlands are popular
among visitors to the
Thai island.
But
as such ceremonies are
not legally binding,
British nationals must
still undertake a civil
service in the
UK.
Despite
the marriage denial,
bookmakers who took bets
on the couple getting
married this year have
said the duo are "living
on borrowed
time".
David
Williams, of
Ladbrokes,
said the bookmaker has
closed its book on the
pair tying the
knot.
But
he added that the firm
is offering odds of 4/1
that the couple will
divorce before
2008.
Moss
and Doherty's rocky
relationship has been
staple fodder for the
tabloids since they met
in 2005.
Ex-Libertines
singer Doherty is
serving a two-year
supervision order for
drug
offences.
And
Kate's modelling career
has flourished despite
being photographed
allegedly taking cocaine
in a music studio last
year.
