She is called Billie-May Doherty.

The couple are in the band The Puta Madres, with de Vidas on keyboard and Doherty as the frontman, and married in 2021.
Doherty has a son, Astile, from a previous relationship with singer Lisa Moorish and a daughter to model Lindi Hingston.
The musician was also previously in a high-profile relationship with supermodel Kate Moss.
Alongside his successful career as co-frontman of rock band The Libertines, Doherty’s other musical projects include indie band Babyshambles and the Puta Madres.
