Winehouse cross with Blake, Blake still wants to be married

Closer magazine reports Amy Winehouse's mother says her daughter is devastated that Blake Fielder-Civil did not tell her about his release, while he insists the marriage is not over.

Following yesterday's news that Amy Winehouse is allegedly saying she wants to divorce husband Blake Fielder-Civil, further reports suggest that there might be a specific reason for it.

According to Closer magazine, the singer's mother Janis says that her daughter is devastated because Fielder-Civil failed to tell her that he was about to be released from prison after twelve months of incarceration. It's also been suggested that he has since asked Amy to foot the £30k bill for his stay in rehab, and that she's refused.

Janis is quoted as saying: "What sort of husband doesn't tell his wife that he's being released? That says it all really, doesn't it? I don't know about Blake asking Amy for money, but it wouldn't surprise me. I'm glad she said no". She adds that whilst he was in prison, he would phone his wife all the time and put pressure on her to do things for him, saying: "He'd say things like 'If you love me you'd do this or that.' He'd... give her grief about things. Love is blind. I just hope she's beginning to see what he's really like now".

Fielder-Civil, meanwhile, is insistent that his marriage isn't over, according to reports, and has assured reporters that his relationship with Winehouse is healthy.
