Amy Winehouse's husband has begged her to beat bulimia before it kills her. The singer's husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, reportedly made his voice heard from behind bars (I almost wrote "from behind that grave", and judging by the way he looks, he sure is on the right track) and declared himself shocked by Amy's gaunt appearance when she visited him in jail last week.
Blake reportedly told her: "I am really concerned about you. You are far too thin. For the first time in months I have been eating three square meals a day. I feel so much better. But you are taking drugs, not eating and now you are fainting. You have to start eating properly. Bulimia is taking a terrible toll on you". Anyone else thinks this is funny? No? Well, I do - not the part about bulimia, of course, but the whole "eating three meals in jail" thing. He probably thinks he'll make himself look good if he comes across as a loving, worried, caring husband. Well, tough luck.
Last year, Amy insisted she had beaten the eating disorder and was gaining weight. However, Blake - who is accused of GBH (grievous bodily harm) and conspiracy to pervert the course of justice - is worried she hasn't been looking after herself since he went to jail. Um, that's really ironic too, you see - given that while she was with him and he was on the loose, he didn't seem to care about Amy's food intake or anything else (like her drug abuse, for instance) given the fact that he was probably too stoned to tell what was going on around him.
One of Blake's friends apparently told News of the World that "Blake has grown stronger in prison and has been able to re-evaluate his life. But Amy has got weaker without him. She is living off drink and drugs. Blake is aware of how she is behaving. He phones her everyday and begs her to be stronger". Don't make me laugh - Paris Hilton probably grew stronger in prison that Amy's drugged-out husband and she spent over three weeks in the slammer. Re-evaluate his life? He probably got his hands on stronger drugs and thinks he can see life more clearly, or at least that's what I feel. It would be a great thing if he truly cared about Amy - but all he's shown himself interested in doing in the past months was spending her money and getting wasted. Does that count as caring?
