Matilda Thomas, 18, has been told to see a counsellor because her troubled lover’s apparent bad influence has sent her into an alcohol-fuelled downward spiral.

She said: “My mum made me attend alcohol counselling because I started drinking so much.

“Pete drinks a lot and I feel like I have to keep up, but it’s hard.”

Matilda – who is friends with party girl Peaches Geldof – was called by Pete at 1am on Thursday morning (21.08.08) to attend his impromptu show at London’s Jazz After Dark club.

She added to the Daily Mirror: “He is amazing. I didn’t even put on my shorts because I didn’t want to be late.”

The 29-year-old hellraiser turned up at 3.15am wearing a cape and top hat. He had previously failed to show at a scheduled DJ set at nightclub Punk.

Earlier this month, the Babyshambles frontman was seen with ex-girlfriend Portia Freeman.
