Husband Of Amy Winehouse Has Had Enough, Wants Divorce
Who would have thought that it would be Blake Incarcerated-Again who would be the one filing divorce papers? Everybody expected Amy to dump him, especially since it is said that she recently claimed she was taking a sunny vacation just to wait for Blaaaaake:
After Amy Winehouse was pictured in the arms of a clean-cut young actor, friends may have hoped she was finally about to ditch her jailbird husband.
Yet the singer has announced that she plans to return to him – after she has spent six months in the Caribbean.
Amy, 25, has told friends she wants to stay on St Lucia until she can be reunited with Blake Fielder-Civil, who began serving his latest prison term in December.
She appeared to have abandoned her marriage after becoming close to actor Joshua Bowman, 21, while staying at the luxury Le Sport spa on the island.
Yet far from thinking of divorcing the man who introduced her to heroin and crack cocaine, Amy plans to stick by him in spite of his conviction for assault and perverting the course of justice. [...]
However, they say Amy has begun drinking again and is merely flirting with other men while she ‘waits’ for her husband.
‘Amy was walking through the resort with the ‘other Blake’ [Wood] on Thursday, and they were looking quite kissy and cuddly,’ said an acquaintance who overheard the encounter.
‘She spotted her friend Stan Clayton, the owner of Mustique’s Firefly Hotel, and loudly announced, ‘It’s great here. I’m staying for six months, waiting for my husband to come out of jail.’
‘It was strange. She was saying she intends going back to her husband and this other Blake character was just sitting there, looking as if he couldn’t care less.
‘They all had lunch and then she went down to the topless beach. On Friday night she made a spectacle of herself again. She got trashed on wine.’
But the most recent news is that she says she’s in love and that her marriage to Blaaaaaaake was based on drugs, drugs, and something called drugs…which, predictably, ticked off Blaaaaaaake enough to file for the Big D:
Celebrity lawyer Henri Brandman told MailOnline that Blake had instructed him to launch the action on the grounds of Amy’s adultery. It is thought that Blake will go for half of Amy’s £10 million fortune.
The move comes as loved-up Amy told a Sunday newspaper that she has finally kicked her drug habit. The star also admitted that she had ‘forgotten I’m even married’ to Blake, claiming ‘our whole marriage was based on doing drugs’. [...]
Contrary to earlier reports that she was waiting for Blake to join her on the island, the singer told the newspaper: “I love it here and have never felt so happy.
“In fact, I don’t think I’m ever going home.
“Especially as I met Josh here. He couldn’t be more different from my husband, which isn’t a bad thing.”
She also branded Blake ‘rubbish in bed’, adding, ‘Almost every time I slept with him it was like I was dead’.
Well, now. So taking a vacay to St. Lucia was just what the doctor ordered to get Amy off drugs, huh. Clinics, doctors, rehab, none of that worked, but going off to a tropical island and finding a new beau was what she needed. Get my skeptical crayon, because that’s what I’m going to have to color this picture she’s drawn.
You see, what Amy has to realize is something most of us have had to come face to face with…wherever you go, there you are. That means that her problems weren’t left in London when she hopped on that plane…she packed them in her suitcases, she put them in her purse, she loaded them in her pockets. A change of scenery is often good to get our minds off our problems and the stuff we deal with, but what happens when the new, exciting vacation with new, exciting people becomes the same old drudgery with the same boring folks?
People like Amy crave not only drugs, but excitement. She’s got to have constant drama in her life, constant upheaval, continuous movement. I think that’s one reason why her little trip to the islands has seemed to “work”…it’s a change and she needs change. The thing is…will she still be clean (and we don’t know for sure that she truly is) in six months? In a year? When she moves back to London? If she dumps this new guy? Even if she decides to live in St. Lucia?
Don’t get me wrong. I truly hope Amy can conquer her addictions. I want to see Amy clean as much as anyone does, and I’ll be the first one in her corner (as I was when she performed at the Grammys) if she can truly stay clean. I realize that kicking drugs is a moment-to-moment decision and a slip doesn’t mean the person has failed…you just have to get up and start again. I just hope that she sees this trip is a temporary respite from her normal life, and that she must keep this “clean” mindset once she rejoins “normal” life. We all, Amy included, shouldn’t jump to conclusions that Amy is “cured”.
Oh, and Blake Incarcerated-Divorcer and his little filing? That would be the best thing to happen to Amy since she discovered the beehive. I do think it’s a little rich of Amy to put the blame for her bad marriage on Blake, but then again these two aren’t exactly deep, introspective thinkers. From Blake’s blaming himself for introducing Amy to drugs to his own lack of interest in honoring his marriage vows, I find it hard to muster up any sympathy for this guy. However, one minute he’s acting like a total jerkface and the next he’s saying how much he loves Amy and wants to help her…wow, I can see why she had to take drugs when she was with Blaaaaaaaaaaake. I need a Midol myself just to finish this paragraph about him.
Now, about that “Blake” tattoo…
