And Courtney Love claims she was the one who persuaded Pete Doherty to go into rehab.

The rock chick has told the Daily Star how she took it upon herself to save Pete by telling him to get help for his drug addiction.

She also says she convinced Pete's mum to support him.

Courtney, who has been in and out of rehab several times herself, said: "I phoned Pete's mother and asked both her and Kate Moss to help Pete and go into a 12-step meeting with him.

"I was functioning as the 'go-to-girl for the publicly humiliated' as I know how that feels."

So what made Courtney, who was married to tragic rocker Kurt Cobain, decide to take action?

She adds: "I wanted to help get Pete and Kate back together. Which I hope has worked."

If recent reports are true and the sparkler on Kate's finger is what we think it is, we'd say Court did a marvellous job.
