On what would have been Amy Winehouse’s 40th birthday, we are joined exclusively by her ex-husband, Blake Fielder-Civil. Married between May 2007 to August 2009, Amy and Blake enjoyed an intense and often tumultuous relationship across 7 years. One of their breakups led Amy to write one of the most iconic albums of all time, 'Back to Black', which she said was about the state of her relationship with Blake at the time. Winning her 5 Grammys, Amy dedicated her win to her 'Blake incarcerated' and said she'd never felt the way she felt about Blake, with anyone else in her life. This morning, Blake will reveal why he's no longer prepared to be cast as the villain, why others need to take responsibility for Amy's drug use/death, why he has to deal with countless death threats and why he doesn’t think a reconciliation with Amy’s father Mitch would work. Amy died in July 2011 from alcohol poisoning, with Blake in jail at the time. Upon hearing the news from prison guards, Blake collapsed and was put on suicide watch. Blake says he thinks about Amy all of the time and is often left jarred if he ever sees her on TV and on what would have been her 40th birthday, says he'll love her forever. A biopic on Amy, directed by Hollywood director Sam Taylor-Johnson, has also recently wrapped, with its release scheduled for early 2024. Titled 'Back to Black', the movie will delve into Amy's rise to stardom, iconic music as well as her marriage to Blake. Playing Blake will be Jack O'Connell, who Blake will say travelled to Leeds to meet with him before filming started.

I always disliked him for introducing her to heroin. But they were both in it together. Amy had serious mental health issues and was a destructive force in her own right - as well as being a musical genius. Added to the fact that there were plenty of other people who brought about her downfall who haven’t taken responsibility. He is well spoken, eloquent & appears as though he has truly reflected. I wish him strength on his recovery & a measure of peace. And it’s just sad we don’t have Amy here any longer.

Addiction issues and tendencies nearly always stem from an abusive or disfunctional childhood. So Blake should definitely not take the blame. It's easy for her family to scapegoat him.

Well said. It's interesting that Blake gets vitriol from people, despite him being an addict since his teenage years and coming from a dysfunctional childhood of divorced parents just like Amy. Why is Blake not afforded the same sympathy? Because he doesn't have a talent that makes him "special" amongst us regular folk?

Well, it is easy for her family to scapegoat him, it takes the blame off of them... Let's be honest here, she had mental issues from an early age on... She derailed with him for 3 years, she derailed with her family for 20 years... 3 years versus 20 years, her family is more to blame than Blake is...

When people blame they are trying to avoid accountability these were two young broken people using drugs to numb pain yet the parents were grown enough to examine themselves and see where they can help and see full picture but no judgement I’m sure they loved her too and felt desperate but I just don’t agree with putting entire blame on one person to avoid accountability but overall this was still Amy’s choice but it’s sad 🥲

@marthajones6417 Год назад

Im a huge Amy fan and I think its nice to see Blake clean and looking well. I dont at all think he should be blamed for Amy's death. The facts are that Amy was an addict before she met Blake: her first addiction was alcohol. At the time she moved to Camden and released Frank, heroin was becoming popular on the scene. Blake was into coke at that time and had friends who did heroin, but Amy was more into alcohol and weed. So no, Blake didnt turn her into a junkie. She said no to hard drugs when she first met him. She made the decision on her own after B2B was released and her mental health declined from the pressure of fame. Ultimately, Amy died from alcohol. I would understand maybe hating Blake if she died from heroin, but the vice that her dad said she didnt need to go to rehab for, is what killed her and it had nothing to do with Blake.

@Caroline26B Год назад

Actually she was smoking joints even before she took alcohol, around when she was like 12 I believe.

@karmiliaandrade9508 5 месяцев назад

Yes! She died of alcohol poisoning! Her autopsy report showed she had 5x the legal amount in her blood system. Blake was long gone by then

@ablurida 5 месяцев назад

You make a good point but Amy agreed at one point to quit drugs in exchange for alcohol. That means she overcompensated with the amounts that she drank, so more than before he met him. So whilst it's not just his fault. It is partially his.

Awe I love Amy asw, but wasn’t he the one who introduced her to the hard drugs and self harm? Maybe if the relationship didn’t happen she would still be here I believe .

What a lot of people fail to realise was that Amy was a very strong-willed soul. She wasn't as weak as what people thought - no one made her do anything that Amy didn't want to do. Yes, Blake did introduce Amy to heroin but she was already smoking cannabis and drinking alcohol years before they met, so she'd already had history with substances and had a history of mental health issues with eating disorders and self harm from being a teenager. She was very vulnerable, but I wouldn't say she was fragile - there's a difference. She just loved Blake to death and wanted to always be on the same level as him. She put him first all the time and never really focused on herself sadly. Happy 40th, Amy - we love and miss you every single day xx

@LiseR-cu4dv 11 месяцев назад

Blake was not the cause of Amy's demise. As a child she loved her dad deeply, and they had a very strong bond, especially musically. Then he left. She developed Borderline Personality Disorder which is often linked to a trauma in childhood. You can tell by her behaviour she was desperately trying to fill a painful void for which Blake was never responsible. She would have had turbulent relationships with whoever she had met, and likely to turn to substances to numb the depression. She died from alcohol poisoning, not drugs, after she and Blake had been separated for some time. All of this turbulence and loss is reflected in her music, her beautiful soulful voice. Her father has never acknowledged any responsibility or introspection in his part.

That's maybe the only good thing about going through hard times in life you grow and become stronger. You can never stop someone from taking drugs it has to come from themselves. Her father and the record company still made her go on stage, make music even though they saw and knew what condition she was in. So sad she can't be around today and see how much we all loved her.

I'm sure she would be so happy to see Blake clean as he is now. About the guilt, he's not guilty. He is also a victim of an addiction, like she was. They both were victims of an industry that doesn't care about the human behind the artist. And everything that drugs bring behind will make them to take paths that any healthy person would take. But that's how the addiction works. Blake, Tyler, Mitch, her friends... I'm sure they did what they could. And it's so hard to empathize with a situation where a person is so wealthy and excused that everyone does whatever she asks, so much that she can approach to almost feel herself inmortal, invulnerable. The only thing you can do is either leave her or be next to her. Nobody knows what would've happened if she wouldn't have been famous. But I hope that this helps to create mechanisms to guide young artists with high reputation to handle their life when everyone wants to make profit out of them. Glad to see Blake better, glad to see Amy's foundation helping other people. Glad to see James and her family going ahead with their lives. We all are lucky to learn so much with her.

I’ve lost probably 30+ people in my life and to be the one standing alone at the end is a very HEAVY feeling. It sounds like he has done a lot of self reflection and put a lot of thought into his younger self actions. At the end of the day, that’s the most that could be asked of him.

I believe Amy wouldn’t have wanted the world to look down on Blake and blame him for her decline. My ex fiancé was the one that introduced me to injecting oxycontin and all my friends and family got so mad at him. I hated that bc it was MY CHOICE to try it. If I OD’ed, then it would be on me, not him. Some ppl have accountability and I believe Amy to be one of those ppl. She loved Blake unconditionally and wouldn’t want her death put on his shoulders.

People should realize that the addicted must take a responsibility for their own actions . I don’t believe in making others at fault for ones addiction. They make a choice when they take drugs, and yes alcohol IS a drug just as much as anything else.

Q: What would you have done differently? Blake: Almost everything. People blame him, but I don't think he was the monster he's been made out to be. Addiction is a disease, and addicts have a personality type that draws them to substances. Amy was an addict before she met Blake, even if she didn't know it yet.

@Kaciiitos Год назад

Dude there are many people in their 20s going through worse and still being able to be way better than him. Justifying someone just cuz of feeling sorry for him is not fair way. I feel sorry for him too, but for him being literally trash person unable to stay away from drugs and unable to support Amy in it aswell. There are many people in this world who have been able to fight with drug addictions and they made it very sooner than him... He also was completely unable to be a man for her... and also for himself. And he did not change so much when u look at him, he is again only crying about himself. He is not poor, he is weak and thats kind of a choice to be like this :) .... He would be strong if he would come here with awareness, saying smth like: "I know I played a big part in her death and I'm truly sorry for that all. I cannot turn back the time, but what I can do and I'm doing is working on myself but also trying to remedy my crimes of what i did in my past. Trying to help her family as much as possible ...... " and X Y Z other things what he could be doing :) Instead, he came to only cry about himself again. No responsibility, just fragile child inside. And thats his choice and really bad one. This is one of the main reasons why Amy is not with us anymore. And I believe he was loving her in some way, but in his selfish damaged way which was not healthy at all... and he was supposed to realise this in time and to work on himself already.... but he did not. He only kept crying and he is like this till these days.... sad story...

@itsjxomusic 8 месяцев назад

As I've got older, I realized that we can not keep blaming Blake. Yes, he introduced Amy to drugs - But we also have to take into consideration Amy's mental health at the time. She could have said no, but chose to take them. She even once paid money as she got Alex started on drugs and felt guilty. She sent him to rehab. That was Amy. I used to hate Blake with a passion as my absolute idol died. We need to remember Amy DID NOT have drugs in her system at the time of death and she was clean - this was alcohol. She always said how much she loved Blake. Love him or hate him, It's been so long, I'm ready to forgive, but never forget.
