Death of Amy Winehouse: the secrets of her ex-husband
On September 14, Amy Winehouse would have celebrated her 40th birthday. For this occasion, Blake Fielder-Civil spoke openly about the death of the singer on the show Good Morning Britain. During this interview, he admitted that he would have “everything done differently” in his relationship. “I have carried this burden myself for over 10 years. I feel, to be honest, that I’m the only person in this story who has ever taken any responsibility, who has ever tried to say, ‘Yes, I made huge mistakes.'”he confided.
Still upset by the disappearance of Amy Winehouse, he could not help but pay her a poignant tribute. “It’s devastating that she’s not here. I think of her all the time, I thought of her this morning when I said happy birthday to her, she was my best friend.
