Wonderful tabloid fodder today in the form of Courtney Love’s latest headlines.

She was in court earlier this year for assaulting a woman at her ex boyfriend’s house in 2003. And part of her probation was an instruction to stay off drugs. Just a few days after both she and her attorney spoke of “over a year” of living a “drug free life”, she collapsed at a party in July, and was tested for drugs in hospital, and being found positive was deemed to be violating her probation. She has been sentenced by a lenient Judge to extended rehabilitation, with the threat that if she doesn’t clean up her act, she will serve a year in prison.

All this we knew already last week. But the latest reports tell that she is also pregnant with Steve Coogan’s baby following a two week drug-fuelled sex romp in a Los Angeles hotel. Coogan has recently split with his wife following newspaper reports of his sex-fuelled drug romps with two lap dancers.

Love has supposedly asked a friend ‘ “What does it make me look like that I have slept with Alan Partridge? Given the A-grade stars I’ve dated it’s embarrassing. I mean … Alan Partridge!”

Steve Coogan is denying the affair.
