Blake Fielder Civil Saw Amy Winehouse ‘Die’, In Pictures

AS Blake Fiedler-Civil tells tabloid readers “AMY ‘DIED’ IN MY ARMS”, and joins his name to the list of Great British literary drug addicts, we hear from that other man in Winehouse’s life, her dad Mitch.

A source tells us about a Mitch Winehouse album:

“Mitch has been working on it for a while now. Amy always credits her dad with getting her into singing. He loves music. He has a good voice and wants a go at turning professional.”

As a London cabbie, one used to negotiating visible air, Mitch surely has the lungs to inhale pop stardom. The chatter is of Mitch singing Frank Sinatra tunes. But how genuine is this story?

The Sun’s Gordon Smart, says Mitch has approached Amy’s label, Island Records, about a deal. And:

“If that doesn’t work he can always call on his daughter, who has her own label, Lioness.”

That’s Lioness records. L.I.O… Mitch and Amy - Ol’ Blue Eyes Sings Ol’ Red Eyes.

Meanwhile, Fielder-Civil, who “has taken responsibility for introducing his now ex-wife to crack cocaine and heroin” and who, according to divorce papers, “found living with Winehouse ‘intolerable’”, says Winehouse nearly died in a drugs binge.

But like they say about the Sixties, if you can remember being married to Amy Winehouse, you weren’t really there…

Update: Amy Winehouse is alive.
