The Libertines singer and guitarist Pete Doherty has announced that he has been diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes, adding it to his long list of health issues.
The 44-year-old musician has been in the media spotlight in the past not only for his career but also for his drug use and a murder case.
He has always been open about his struggle with alcohol and drug addiction, which he spent decades battling before overhauling his lifestyle and adapting to a calmer pace.
The beloved musician told documentary filmmaker Louis Theroux that he was a "very sick man" due to his former lifestyle and admitted that he did not think his life would be long-lasting.
'DEATH IS LURKING'
Doherty had said, "Everything has to go. I was told a short while ago that if I don't change my diet, I will have diabetes and cholesterol problems. Death is lurking, do you know what I mean?"
