During an appearance on Never Mind the Xmas Buzzcocks this week, the former Libertines frontman, 43, said his hair changed colour as a result of the incident.

Speaking to The Mail On Sunday in 2012, he said: 'Amy and I were lovers. He was the epitome of rock and roll. A week after Linda shared the news, Pete said: 'The little girl was two months premature. But the relaxed pace of life suits him more.' I said I'd try to be there for the birth... It was a complete s*** hole full of other druggies playing guitars and just hanging out. He got his guitar out and started singing to her. He previously told The Mail On Sunday: 'Amy and I were lovers. 'But towards the end, as only lovers can, she became quite mean and cruel to me. There were needles everywhere and it was filthy.' I went round to a flat in London. In one of the most unlikely romances in showbusiness, Big Brother star Nikki was reported to have had a short fling with Pete days after he rekindled his romance with Kate.
