Kate Moss’ marriage crisis

Kate Moss' husband's flirty behaviour is creating a stir.
Supermodel Kate Moss’ husband Jamie Hince's flirty behaviour is creating a stir and a marriage crisis.

Kate Moss is used to making headlines at the annual Glastonbury Festival, usually thanks to the outfits she wears. But this year, she was the hot topic of conversation because she was a no-show at the popular event. However, the supermodel’s husband, musician Jamie Hince, did turn up, and was spotted hanging out with female friends. According to some reports, he was seen “chatting intimately” with a blonde woman in the smoking area. “They spoke on a bench for 30 minutes,” says an eyewitness. “The girl was very touchy-feely and pinched his bum as they walked off.”

Jamie (46), who is a guitarist with the band The Kills, was also seen walking around the festival site in Somerset, England, with a brunette woman. Kate (41), meanwhile, was spotted hundreds of kilometres away at a McDonald’s on one of the main roads out of London. It’s believed that she was on her way to visit friends in the country.

It’s extremely unusual for Kate to miss Glastonbury. She has been a regular for the last 20 years, and eyes are always on her to see what she wears. Kate’s glamorous pals, including actress Sadie Frost, were there, but the fact that she didn’t show up could be a sign her marriage to Jamie is in trouble.

After being escorted by police off a short-haul flight, Kate’s reputation for partying hard is fiercer than ever.

A pal has revealed that the couple, who celebrated their fourth wedding anniversary last week, argued after Jamie failed to make it to a 50th birthday party for Sadie. He had been in the US and didn’t make it back to the UK on time. Kate felt her husband “had not made enough effort” to return for the bash, says an insider, who adds that the couple aren’t making time for each other. Meanwhile, Jamie is feeling neglected, the source says. “Jamie has been saying he is sick of being about number 10 on Kate’s priority list”.

The model had been enjoying more of Sadie’s celebrations at a spa in Turkey when she became involved in an incident that earned her more negative publicity. While on a flight home on budget airline EasyJet, she became so disruptive that the pilot phoned ahead and asked police to meet the plane on arrival and escort Kate off. She’s alleged to have argued with staff when they refused to serve her alcohol. She responded by pouring herself a drink from a bottle of vodka she had in her cabin luggage.

As police led her off the plane, she was heard describing the pilot as “a basic b***h”. No charges were laid, and one passenger told the media, “She was not aggressive to anyone. The EasyJet crew was acting out of proportion.”

Kate has previously lost modelling contracts after allegations were made that she was a habitual cocaine user, but she is still worth an estimated $85m, and was believed to have earned around $10m last year.

Meanwhile, her 12-year-old daughter Lila has revealed her mother can be embarrassing. Lila – Kate’s daughter with ex-boyfriend Jefferson Hack – took part in a question and answer session on social network Ask.fm, in which she was asked if her mother was her idol. She replied, “No, like every mum, she’s embarrassing and annoying but u love them rilly [sic].”

She also has no interest in following in her mum’s footsteps. When asked what she would like to do in the future, Lila said, “Mayb a fashion designer… but defo not a model [sic].”

And it seems as though she may be the one in the family who has her head screwed on when it comes to public image. Clearly disapproving of Miley Cyrus’ radical image change, she wrote, “She was my everything for like five years and then…”, before finishing her message with a sad face.
