Kate Moss has saved her £3million deal with cosmetic giants Rimmel - reportedly on the condition she checks into rehab.

Bosses decided to keep the supermodel as their face after her public apology in the wake of sensational photographs showing the model snorting cocaine.

Moss has been dropped by top fashion houses Chanel, Burberry, Roberto Cavalli and H+M.

However, insiders claim Rimmel wants her to seek treatment at the world famous Priory clinic, where Moss has spent time before.

A source revealed to Britain's Sunday Times newspaper: "Rimmel wants Kate to disappear into The Priory, come out all-clear and be a beautiful model again."

Ironically, the new Rimmel ads will show the catwalk queen partying all night before applying their new foundation - called Recovery - in a cab and arriving at work looking fresh and stunning.

Kate filmed two adverts shortly before the cocaine photographs and she is due to shoot a third soon.

A Rimmel spokesperson said: "We are pleased to acknowledge the statement released by Kate apologising for her recent actions."
