Blake Fielder-Civil Rejects Full Blame for Amy Winehouse's Death, Asserts Amy Had Agency
Blake Fielder-Civil, Amy Winehouse’s ex-husband, says in a recent interview that he shouldn’t bear the sole blame for Winehouse’s death, arguing that Amy had agency and made her own choices. He acknowledges he introduced her to heroin and that they became addicts together, but maintains he wasn’t a dealer and that blaming him alone is unfair. He also notes Winehouse’s struggles occurred while they were young, that she remained a strong person, and that he’s now sober and in a healthier relationship. He spoke on the We Need to Talk podcast and reflected on his inability to attend her 2011 funeral due to his prison sentence.
