As Kate Moss's career fell apart, it was revealed former boyfriend Pete Doherty had also been up to no good.

The Babyshambles frontman allegedly caused havoc on a budget flight back from a trip to Ibiza.

It was claimed he swigged vodka, abused passengers and even appeared to light a cigarette on the easyJet flight.

Doherty, 26, flew to the island after model girlfriend Kate Moss reportedly dumped him. During the trip he is reported to have smashed up a villa, causing £50,000 of damage.

His antics continued on the flight home last Saturday. Doherty hassled passengers and boozed his way through the two-and-a-half hour flight to Stansted airport, witnesses said.

"He acted like he owned the place and drank everything he could get his hands on," said a female passenger, who did not want to be named.

Doherty even had to be held back by friends as his behaviour threatened to get out of control.

The former Libertines member also cursed at newspaper reports of Kate Moss's alleged cocaine habit. "He was reading stuff about Kate, saying "that's b*******"," the

passenger said.

Last night easyJet declined to comment.
