By Andy Coulson Bob's Disgust at Pal Who Stole his Paula
Bob Geldof shoots a withering glance at the one-time pal who stole his wife -- and the sense of betrayal is clearly written on his face.
The tense moment came as Michael Hutchence waltzed past Bob in a designed skirt outside a showbiz bash. The INXS rock singer passed the Live Aid hero as he sat alone on the steps quietly sipping a beer.
Bob, 40, spotted his rival and could not resist a disgusted sneer before shaking his head. Hutchence, 35 - described as "God's gift to women" by Bob's estranged missus Paula Yates - briefly glanced over his shoulder - before walking away quickly.
It was the first time the two men had clapped eyes on each other since telly presenter Paula, 35, walked out on Bob, in march after 18 years together.
Bob and Hutch were once close drinking pals and even spent time in Australia together.

Paula- mother of Bob's kids Fifi Trixiebelle, 12, Peaches, five and Pixie, four - was not at the 100,000 (Pound) premiere perty of Sly Stallone's new movie Judge Dredd at London's County Hall.
One witness said: "It was an amazing scene. We expected punches to be thrown, but Bob was very cool."
"He looked directly at Hutchence. But Bob didn't say a word - he just shook his head and smiled to himself."
A pal of the former Boomtown Rats singer said: "Bob's a tempermental Irishman and it's astonishing that he didn't try to throw a punch.
"I'm sure if they'd met a couple of months ago that's exactly what would have happened."
"But Bob's done some serious thinking over the last few months and seems to have some to terms with the situation."

"He still feels totally betrayed by Michael - they were good mates. But he's decided life must go on."
