Friends fear for Amy Winehouse
Posted in Amy Winehouse, Divas, Drugs, Grammy Awards on the February 28, 2008
Friends are begging troubled Amy Winehouse to return to rehab; fearing that she is “getting back to her worst”.
The singer’s inner circle has watched her slowly return to her old ways since she left a clinic earlier this month. Even jailbird husband Blake Fielder-Civil has threatened to ban her from visiting him because he is convinced she is still taking crack cocaine.
A friend said: “Amy’s in an awful state again, she’s clearly on drugs. Many of us think full-time residential rehab is the only option but she won’t go back.”
The star’s worried loved ones held crisis talks this week. Amy, 24, has a history of self-harming while high on drugs and scratches have been visible on her left arm. She also displayed mystery marks and spots on her knuckles and hands when she went out to the shops in London this week and bought kids’ sweets.
Pals believe her rehabilitation, which came after she was exposed taking crack in January, was not taken seriously enough. A source said: “She was smoking cannabis and drinking heavily as soon as she left rehab. That has now increased. Everyone who’s seen her in the last week or so has been really disturbed by the state she’s in. She’s getting back to her worst. It was hoped her new album and fashion range would keep her focused but it hasn’t worked.”
Amy walked out of rehab to perform at the Grammys via satellite from London two weeks ago
