Kate's a domestic Miss

Photographed at the kitchen table at her Gloucestershire home or else in an embrace with her fiancé Pete Doherty, the supermodel appears to be enjoying a new-found domesticity - at odds with her image as a drug-fuelled rock chick.

The pictures were taken ahead of the much-anticipated launch of her first clothing range for Top Shop on 1 May. She is wearing pieces from the collection in the photographs taken for the latest issue of Dazed & Confused, the magazine founded by Jefferson Hack, Moss's ex-boyfriend and the father of her daughter.
As if to underline their apparent domestic bliss, Moss appeared alongside Doherty, albeit briefly, at a gig in east London last night which had some critics lamenting the passing of his wilder excesses. Billed as An Evening With Pete Doherty, the first of two solo sell-out shows at the Hackney Empire, it passed without incident.
While an invitation to an evening with Pete Doherty once would have promised blood on the walls and drugs everywhere, the Hackney Empire instead witnessed only the tenderest of moments.
As he introduced the song KP Nuts, Doherty said: "I am dedicating this song..." before the crowd interrupted him to shout "Kate, Kate". At which point the singer replied: "Yes, to my fiancée." The nearest the night came to controversy was when Moss used her three-second appearance on stage to stick her middle finger up at Doherty but even that was a joke.
Moss, as has become her custom, hurried to the microphone twice to sing her line in the Babyshambles song La Belle Et La Bête ("Is she more beautiful than me?"). The first time she made her rude gesture, the second time she skipped like a schoolgirl, so it was just a bit of fun.
Doherty had even arrived on time and by a saintly 10.15pm he had cleared off stage, having performed solo acoustic versions of virtually every notable song in his canon, an epic set that gave him the opportunity to display the sensitive core of numerous rowdy rockers.
Unlikely guests rappers Hunt and Lethal Bizzle brought a hip-hop feel, but elsewhere the songs began to blend together.
A few years ago, more people would have believed this wayward soul would be dead by now, rather than entertaining a substantial crowd in a professional manner for over two hours. For this, Doherty deserves immense credit. But without his band and the sideshow of his personal life, his greatest crime was being a bit boring. The May issue of Dazed & Confused is out today.
