Speaking on her Dream On podcast, Lottie said: 'I actually found this gold dress. "I don't know if you remember this picture of my sister, she's walking through Glastonbury and she's wearing Hunter welly boots and this gold dress and a little belt. 'I found pretty much the exact dress in Zara. "I was like, how cute would it be to recreate one of my sister's most iconic looks? So I've got my long Hunters and I've got the dress. 'I bought this dress maybe a month ago and it's just been sat on my table waiting for Glastonbury. I'm really excited.' Kate was last seen attending Glastonbury back in 2023 when she was pictured watching Primal Scream from the side of the Pyramid Stage.

Glastonbury 2025: post your questions for Carl Barât and Pete Doherty of the Libertines
Pete Doherty and Carl Barât's relationship has been called 'one of pop's great rollercoaster romances'. They met in the early 2000s in London and forged the Libertines in the fire of squat parties and guerilla gigs across the capital. The band defined the era's guitar music – raw energy, bohemian lyricism, 'the' band names, hats. Their 2002 debut album, Up the Bracket, produced by the Clash's Mick Jones, remains a seminal release of the decade, with bleary-eyed garage-rock hits such as I Get Along, What a Waster, and the title single, which have lit up indie discos ever since. The co-frontmen stuck it out for a few years through thick and thin (thin being Doherty's numerous arrests, drugs busts and that time he broke into Barât's flat). It's a love-hate brotherhood they cemented in the 2004 UK No 2 single Can't Stand Me Now, which came alive when they performed, jostling for the same microphone. Eventually the Libertines disbanded in 2004, with Barât forming Dirty Pretty Things and Doherty focusing on Babyshambles. There have been reunions over the years: the pair attempted to bury the hatchet in 2007 and 2009, and they released 2015 album Anthems for Doomed Youth. But the 2020s have marked a new chapter. The band returned with 2024's All Quiet on the Eastern Esplanade, which was recorded – completely sober, they say – at the studio they co-founded in Margate, Kent. Now's your chance to ask them everything you've ever wanted to know about being the boys in the band. On Sunday 29 June at 12pm at the Astrolabe theatre, they'll be speaking to music critic Miranda Sawyer with the help of this reader Q&A. Fancy finding out how they view their legacy? What the secret is to their songwriting? Or how they survived those early years? Post your questions in the comments below and the best will be read out onstage. If you're at Glastonbury, come along and see it live, but if you're not we'll publish highlights online afterwards.

Patrick Walden, Babyshambles guitarist, dies aged 46
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Patrick Walden, the guitarist best known for his work alongside Pete Doherty in the British post-punk band Babyshambles, has died aged 46. The news was announced through the group's social media. No cause of death was revealed. Doherty had formed the band after splitting from the Libertines in the early 2000s, his substance abuse a key driver in his departure. When assembling a new outfit, he confided in Walden as lead guitarist, who could be found with anything from a Gretsch semi-hollow to a Tele or a Jazzmaster draped over his shoulder. Proving to be more than just Doherty's foil, Walden co-wrote a host of songs featured on their 2005 debut album, Down in Albion. That included co-writing its big hit, Fuck Forever, a track driven by a chimey, edge-of-breakup guitar tone. It's one with both charm and attitude in equal measure, something that typified the band's – and Walde's – signature sound. Walden would leave the band in December 2005 in light of substance issues, and an assault case involving his then-girlfriend, although all charges were later dropped. Michael Whitnall took his place for 2007's Shotter's Nation. However, Walden linked up with two ex-bandmates, Drew McConnell and Seb Rochford, for a show in July 2007, and joined the Babyshambles at a gig at Halo in Battersea two years later. 'It is with deep regret and sadness that we share the news of Patrick Walden's death,' Babyshambles say in an official statement. 'We feel very fortunate to have known, loved, and worked with him, and we kindly ask for respect and privacy during these difficult times.' One commenter on the band's Instagram post, currently the only one visible on its timeline, compared his guitar playing to the Stooges maestro Scott Asheton, calling him 'the best guitarist of my generation.' As per an interview with blogger Olivia Collins for The Musical Acid Test in November 2024, Walden says he was pursuing a degree in jazz composition, citing the genre as his first love. His first job was working at Camden Jazz Café at 18, rubbing shoulders with some prestigious names, including Herbie Hancock and Ravi Coltrane. But it was in the indie rock world with which he is more commonly associated. 'I realised when I stopped drinking, the hunger for music came back and I wanted to do something new and different with that kind of music,' he had said. 'The way I played all the other music was very instinctive, I would just do it, by playing in bands, but this takes training, it's a lot of hard work, and I think it's a responsibility as well.'
