The Garden, a PJ Harvey Discussion Site

I know this is a bit of a blasphemy considering how much she protects her private life, but does anybody have an idea of Polly's current sentimental life status?
The last boyfriend I heard of was Josh Klinghoffer, who also played drums and guitar for her in 2004.

Just discovered this: http://www.whosdatedwho.com/celebrities ... harvey.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

There was (maybe still is??) rumor of Beth Gibbons of Portishead, but I don't know if we want to open that can of worms again...

Oh this rumor dates back from the time before Josh...
I honestly don't mean to open a can of worms, just wanted to know if there was something semi-official or public knowledge.

I read on atforumz in an old thread that there was a rumour she and Iggy Pop dated for awhile. If there is any truth to this..certainly would have made an interesting pairing.

For sure
But again it's an old rumor...

No Vincent Gallo?

The likelyhood of this kind of info surfacing these days it pretty remote. She keeps a very low profile.

Rah!

So, you've heard this too Olivier? I want it to be true now. Iggy's the man! Almost as much so as Nick Cave

Yes, but it was really just a name dropped among others, and I doubt its credibility. Although that would have been amazing, but probably doomed like the Nick Cave romance was.

Edit: I found the old atforumz post, it's there: http://www.atforumz.com/showpost.php?p= ... stcount=14" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Also listed are Joe Dilworth (never heard), Tricky and Eric Drew Feldman...

But I wasn't interested in who she might have dated, rather who she was dating now. Maybe some normal guy like you and me...

AFAIK, both of them have always said they were just friends.

Probably... but even then SOME people MUST know

Well, thank you for digging that old thread up Olivier. I think that her and Iggy definitely must have met before because over the years they've played a lot of the same festivals..I wonder how exactly that rumour started. For all we know they might have been spotted chatting backstage and it all could've been blown out of proportion from there.

It doesn't even take that to start a rumor... Just some wishful thinking

Polly & Iggy that's a new one for me.
