YES, it’s true… Babyshambles frontman, Pete Doherty is set to miss his fiancée Kate Moss’ unveiling of her new fashion collection (May 1st @ Topshop’s flagship store in London’s Oxford Street) because he will be having surgery. No, it’s not buttocks implants, he’s set to have a new implant fitted to help him quit drugs.

The implant, a pellet containing naltrexone, will be inserted just under the skin of Pete’s stomach. A good friend of Pete’s said: “Pete hopes this new implant will help him quit for good.” The 28-year-old rocker has battled his dependency to heroin and cocaine for many years, and hopes this will be the end of it!

A source revealed that Pete won’t be alone for today’s surgery at the Midlands clinic since the couple’s cat Dinger (slang for syringe) just had kittens and he’s been taking them everywhere with him!
