Amy Winehouse’s mother-in-law: I want to keep Blake away from Amy
Amy Winehouse’s in-laws have said they want to keep Blake Fielder-Civil away from the star once he’s released from prison.
Blake has been on remand at HMP Pentonville in London since November but after pleading guilty to assault and perverting the course of justice charges last month, Amy is said to be convinced that he’ll be released after his sentencing tomorrow.
If that happens though, Blake’s mum Georgette Civil has said she and husband Giles will do all they can to keep the couple apart: “Amy thinks Blake will be freed on Monday but it’s not good news.
“I’m absolutely dreading it because I don’t want him to go straight back to Amy. If he does it could be a death sentence for the two of them.
“Blake thinks he’s going to be Amy’s saviour and has every intention to try to stop the drugs. But Amy is completely unstable. Blake is a recovering addict and he’s not strong enough to resist the temptation.
“If they are reunited I know they will be back on drugs within days. The dealers will swarm round Blake and Amy. They are meal tickets for the dealers. Then the police will get called, Blake will be arrested and sent back to prison.
“I also fear that if Blake and Amy lock themselves in a hotel room there is a real danger they will take a drugs overdose.
“Giving him and Amy another chance is like putting a gun to Blake’s head while playing Russian Roulette.
“Once he is with Amy, he won’t even be allowed to take my phone calls. I will have lost him to drugs.”
Georgette is planning to appeal to the sentencing judge to force Blake to live with them in Lincolnshire instead of staying in the couple’s London playground: I want Blake free but I want him in an environment that is safe—without Amy. We want the judge to send Blake home to be with his parents, brothers and grandparents.
“I know if he goes home to me, instead of her, Amy will go berserk. But what she needs is tough love.
“Amy should get herself back into rehab and stay there as long as is necessary to get her off drugs. She needs to prove that she loves him enough to stop. Then, once they are both drugs-free, they can have a real future together.”
Blake was initially said to have given up drugs on entering prison but was later hospitalised after using contaminated drugs and last month, was claimed to be still injecting heroin.
Amy’s dad Mitch Winehouse has said he expects Blake to enter rehab on his release from jail.
