Pete Doherty says he is supporting Amy Winehouse

Pete Doherty claims he has been supporting fellow druggy Amy Winehouse since her other half Blake Fielder-Civil was thrown into the slammer - him knowing lots about both drugs and jail. And he has contradicted reports that Winehouse's drug addiction has worsened since Fielder-Civil's arrest. Doherty told reporters: "I speak to her nearly every day. She just wants her man back for Christmas. They are desperately in love. One good thing is that Blake has got clean since he has been in prison. It's been quite an awakening. Amy stopped doing everything since he went in. She realises how much they have to lose. They are going to lose each other if it carries on. Love, music and melody is the way forward".
