Amy Winehouse’s husband to use love letters against her
Amy Winehouse’s husband Blake Fielder-Civil is reportedly planning to use love letters from his wife against her in their upcoming divorce.
Last month, Amy was said to have been in talks with divorce lawyers after Blake failed a drug test and was sent back to prison - but then called off her plans at Christmas. However, Blake is said to have started his own divorce proceedings against Amy after she publicly had a fling with another man during her ongoing holiday in St Lucia in the Caribbean.
According to reports, Blake is set to challenge Amy for half of her estimated £10million fortune - and will use her love letters as proof that he is important to Amy and a key player in her life and career, despite his current incarceration. Her last missive, sent last month, details how she intends to record a covers album, featuring their favourite songs, and spent £3,000 on lingerie for his eventual release from jail.
A legal source told the News of the World: “The letters could prove pivotal as it proves how important Blake was to Amy’s career.
“By the time the case gets to court Amy could be worth as much as £12 million and realistically Blake could end up with a quarter of that.”
In related news, Amy is reportedly in trouble with record company bosses after failing to produce any music for her next album.
Universal’s executives are said to have expected tracks for the follow-up to her colossally successful ‘Back to Black’ album by the end of last year - but Amy failed to deliver.
According to the Sun, commercial director Brian Rose has now flown out to the Caribbean to “drive some common sense into Amy and find out what the hell is going on”: “There don’t seem to be any solid plans for new music.
“But Universal is a business and it needs to know what is happening with one of its biggest talents.”
Amy flew out to St Lucia before Christmas with the idea of staying for a two week break; after enjoying herself so much, she is said to have signed up for a two month stay instead.
