Kate and Bobby hit Soho

Kate Moss has told how she has no immediate plans to marry long-term partner Jefferson Hack.

This picture may offer a clue why. Our photographer spotted Moss and Primal Scream's Bobby Gillespie in Soho, where they drank cocktails at two private members' clubs all afternoon.

Meanwhile, Jefferson was at the couple's north London home minding their one-year-old daughter, Lila Grace.

Moss insists her relationship with Gillespie is platonic, despite the fact that friends say they have spent a considerable amount of time in each other's company recently. She has even asked him to play at her 30th birthday party in Jamaica in January.

But after seeing this first picture of them socially, Jefferson must be wondering about the future of their relationship, especially after Moss told the Standard at a party last week that she had "no plans to marry" him.

Moss last night denied she is breaking up with publisher Jefferson, 31, and also denied that she calls him "the babysitter".

Moss and Gillespie looked closer than ever on their recent day out. The supermodel left home at 10.30am in her new £60,000 Range Rover. At 11am, after popping into her optometrist in Primrose Hill, she set off for some retail therapy, at Rellik in Ladbroke Grove, a vintage clothes shop.

After a quick call to Gillespie, plans were hatched to rendezvous at a Soho bar. The problem of driving under the influence was resolved with a call to her assistant who was on the scene in minutes to take over the wheel.

Kate was dropped off at 6 Degrees bar in Frith Street at
1.30pm where she met Bobby and another friend for a swift round of gin and tonics.

One onlooker said: "They were laughing and giggling like teenagers. They were very affectionate, touching each other a lot - obviously very close friends."

An hour and a half later, Kate and Bobby wrapped up against the bitter breeze and sauntered to another bar in Dean Street. Kate left at 4.30pm and was picked up by her assistant again, while Bobby stayed inside.
