Pete Doherty dating Courtney Love?

Courtney Love and Pete Doherty have sparked rumours of a romance after the pair were spotted sharing a kiss after Love visited the Babyshambles frontman in rehab.

Love, a former drug addict herself, went to see Doherty at a clinic in Wiltshire where he is battling to get clean.

The former Hole singer then took Doherty to a nearby Wetherspoons pub where the two stars availed of a 'meal deal'.

A source said: "Pete respects Courtney for the struggle she's faced, one that, like his, seemed insurmountable.

"He's turning a corner now. And having support from one of rock's greatest survivors is a great help and inspiration for him. They had a brilliant talk.

"It was touching to see them share a tender kiss after the visit. They share a common bond as both are musicians with a self-destructive streak."

Despite his budding relationship, Pete, who checked into rehab 28 days ago, is said to be distraught ex-girlfriend Kate Moss has a new lover.

The supermodel began dating The Kills frontman Jamie Hince last month and pals say she is smitten with him.

Kate and Pete split in June after he reportedly spent the night with South African model Lindi Hingston.
