Amy's hubby ambushed in jail

3003_rav_amy By Rav Singh

THE banged-up hubby of Back To Black star AMY WINEHOUSE has been whacked black and blue in jail.

I can reveal BLAKE FIELDER-CIVIL is sporting a shiner after being targeted by fellow inmates at the rough Pentonville prison.

The singer's fella, held on remand accused of assault and perverting the cause of justice, took a kicking from jail bullies who believed he was carrying DRUGS.

My insider revealed: "Blake's been running scared ever since he set foot inside Pentonville—and now his luck has run out.

"He got ambushed by a few blokes who thought he had heroin on him.

"He's been put in solitary three times already for failing drug tests so they figured it was a fair bet he'd be carrying some—although he wasn't."

I hear that it was a particularly nasty incident and the 25-year-old was lucky to escape with just a black eye.

The source added: "Because Blake is such a high-profile inmate, he's a natural target on the landings.

"There have been lots of threats and for a long time he just kept himself confined to his cell—he'll be staying there a lot more now."

Winehouse012Blake's beating last week came before Amy missed yet another prison visit—spurring him to threaten divorce.

And he won't be seeing much of the singing sensation, 24, as she will soon be jetting off to Malibu to check herself into rehab.

The drug-ravaged star has finally said ‘yes, yes, yes' to worried family and friends and is booked in at the exclusive Promises clinic.

At £5,000 a week, it's the Rolls-Royce of clean-up centres. She'll take 12 steps into the world's "finest rehab programme"—one that's already treated BRITNEY SPEARS, MEL GIBSON, DIANA ROSS, CHRISTIAN SLATER and BEN AFFLECK.

A little bird told me: "Amy knows she's on the fast track to ruin with the way her life's going. Her personal problems are starting to overshadow her phenomenal success.

"She's even been blasted by the United Nations for setting a bad example!

"With her husband Blake in choky, it's hardly a shock that she's hiding behind the crack cocaine and heroin. She's still a young woman living her life with the unique pressure of massive fame and she obviously can't handle it—just look at the self-harming.

"This is her chance to make a serious attempt at stopping the rot before it goes too far.

"No one wants her to end up the way of JANIS JOPLIN."

This is really boring news now. It's like the George Best story with constant news of rehab, falling off the wagon, more rehab, more booze/drugs, more rehab. Change the record Amy!!!

me

i have no sympathy for her she deserves everthink she gets but she is lucky she can go to rehab most people just die and are forgotten about it isnt right

What the hell is wrong with these people, its about time she dithed her hubby , as together they are bad news. And Amy should get a bloody life , im sure she can afford to, not like the rest of us. When are people going to relize users are LOSERS.

why don't all you sanctamonious people leave the poor woman alone. She's obviously got issues and will sort herself out when she can. No one chooses to be in the poor state she is in. Just because she is a singer and because of that she is famous it does not give everyone the right to have an opinion about her life which actually they know nothing about.

Amy?... if you read this (doubtful I know, but non the less)here goes...
I have been where you are without the fame. We share the same birthday and feel I recognise what you are going through and thankfully I came out the other end of the tunnel. Can you ask yourself:
Are you happy & where you want to be? Do you like the person you used to be or do you feel you may have been a better person before the drugs?
Are the "friends" around you givers or takers or could they have alternative reasons for befriending you?
Some friends are real friends but it wouldn't appear they have a good influence on you.
And finally how will you cope broke? Cause you will be. And who will be there with you then?
I know out of experience that the only way you will make REAL changes to improve your life is when you have hit rock bottom. Personally I think you have! But maybe you have the capacity to sink deeper. Sometimes you have to start afresh leaving all aquaintences behind to move on. That doesn't meen not talking when passing on the street. Make your excuses and look to the future. It took me 4 years to choose a new network of friends and turn my life from nothing to happiness. That included having to study for a career, which you wouldn't have to do.
You must realise you and Blake, no matter how much in love you feel, are no good for each other. You both have reasons for abusing yourselfs like you do.
You both as a result need someone more level headed to help each of you through your problems. Personally through my experiance I think it will take Blake more than it will take you to see clearly again.
If you really loved each other, you wouldn't let each other get in the states you do. You must want to be loved and protected by a dependable man. And I am sorry to say your not being loved or protected.
For the rest of the world....
If your life has been that perfect, I applaud and cogratulate you. Not everyone in this life has that opportunity. And that means up's & down's will follow. Every one deals with things in different way's. Some of us have not been taught to be strong we have to learn day by day.
The results are worth while and rewarding once you make the big decision to turn you life around. To appreciate nature, the birds, tree's, water and most importantly LIFE, HAPPINESS, LOVE AND REAL LAUGHTER is the most beautiful feeling in the world.
I don't wish her problems on anyone even with "all her money" as The Beatles said... Money can't buy me love.

I am so bored of reading about Winehouse and her latest shenanigans. As for her going into the famous Promises rehab clinic in the States, per-lease...change the record.

As much as I am a fan of her music, I can't listen without thinking of her in some seedy old flat injecting herself with heroin. She is no different to the average crack head you bump into in on the street, except she is famous and wealthy. If she doesn't sort herself out she will be remembered for being a junkie with the beehive, than the talented singer-songwriter who scooped five grammies.

Who really cares about winehouse, if she dies ok that will be sad for her family but she is becoming famous not for her songs but for her idiot of a husband that she dearly loves as well as her drug and alcohol issues. the rehab place hasn't really helped that many famous people didn't do much for Brittany now did it or mel.

Amy i hope you do read this as i know wot u r going through as ive been there myself and ive come through the other end and ive never looked back and i never will.it is a very painful thing 2 go through, i done it the hard way without medication, withdrawals last a few days but it does get better.
i wish u all the luck in the world

Debbie

Good luck Amy.

There are a lot of people here rooting for you.

And to those who are fortunate enough not to be addicted to any substance you will find most addicts by nature are very kind sensitive people who find it hard to cope with the nastiness and cruelty they see in the world around them- exactly what some people here have displayed in their comments.

Normally I don't respond to these stories or comments, but yours was truly one of the best and heartfelt.

I don't like the way Amy is living and won't condone it, but I am not in her shoes and I have no idea what has happened in her life for her to make the choices she has.

I don't have a drug or drink issue, but I do have serious health problems and because people from the outside see that I live very well, they are pass judgment and think I am living the "good life" because I can't work. I try to set them straight but once the green eye of envy sets in, you can't change minds or that aspect.

Life is not always as it seems to others and the grass is always greener on the other side, yet no one knows about the hell life can be...especially for someone-like me- who is in constant pain and can't do half the things others can...including having children. So the next time some of you “out there” want to judge other people without knowing their situation, just thank God that your lives are so perfect that you have the ability to pass judgment.

I do hope Amy will get her act together and the media, her family and the record business stop exploiting her for money, but get her real help. She does appear close to her family, but I can't help but notice her father and mother seem to be enjoying their time in the limelight a little too much. Poor girl seems to be surrounded by nothing but Toxic people who indulge her in this nonsense. I can only hope that she gets help before it's too late.

I hope it's true that Amy is finally going somewhere for treatment and that it will be out of the UK. I just wish it were anywhere but Malibu. The Paps will drive her crazy. Promises is not the place it once was. She would do much better in Salt Lake City or Hazeldon in Minnesota.

Lulu

This doesn't seem good. It's kind of creepy.

Kathryn

Why on earth would you go to a rehab facility that hs treated Britney Spears, Christian Slater etc. It hardly did them any good did it? 'Promises' doesn't sound too promising to me...

katee

Promises is not a very good pick. It is overpriced and has a dismal success rate lately. As you other readers have said, Cirque Lodge in Utah is the best thing going right now.
