According to Britain’s Sky News, Moss has been dating Anthony Rossomando, the guitarist for the group Dirty Pretty Things. Rossomando is a friend of Doherty’s and replaced him in the Libertines when Doherty’s antics got to be too much for the band. Kate and Anthony met at a Dirty Pretty Things gig and were introduced by Carl Barât of the Libertines. “Carl introduced them and they got on really well,� said a source for Australia’s NW. The insider claims that Barât hoped that Moss and Rossomando would hit it off and that their relationship would irritate Doherty.

Carl’s plan worked. Another informant said, “The fact that [Kate] keeps hooking up with [Pete’s] mates really upsets him,� reveals an insider. NW reports that Pete is now determined to sabotage Kate’s reputation with his upcoming book. His friends believe he will “reveal everything about their relationship� in his soon-to-be published diaries.

But Moss doesn’t seem like she’s letting Doherty’s threats keep her from enjoying a fling with Rossomando. The new couple “flirted� at the Wireless Festival and then spent four hours in Moss’s room at Brown’s Hotel. Anthony and Kate didn’t leave the room until 5:45 am.
