Amy Winehouse Boyfriend
In April of 2007, Winehouse and Blake Fielder-Civil were engaged. Winehouse revealed that her romance with the 23-year-old was the inspiration for several of the Back to Black tracks. The couple eloped and married on May 18, 2007, in a ceremony in Miami, Florida.
Winehouse, an admitted smoker of marijuana, was dogged by accounts of unending drug abuse and odd conduct. The singer overdoses several drugs on August 8, 2007, and was hospitalized. Winehouse later told the News of the World. That she had overdosed after using a mixture of heroin, cocaine, ecstasy, ketamine, whiskey, and vodka during a London bar crawl.
The episode put North America’s scheduled trip on hold. The announcement of August 21, 2007, stated that Winehouse was ordered to rest and worked with physicians to address her health.
Amy Winehouse Arrests
In 2006, Winehouse admitted to punching a female fan in the face for criticizing her having taken Blake Fielder-Civil as a husband.

In October 2007, for possession of seven grams of marijuana, Winehouse and Fielder-Civil were detained in Bergen, Norway.
On 26 April 2008, Winehouse was cautioned after she admitted to police she slapped a 38-year-old man in the face, a “common assault” offense, her first of two. She voluntarily turned herself in and was held overnight. Police said, at her arrival, she was “in no fit state” to be interviewed.

Amy Winehouse Respiratory and other health problems
On June 23, 2008, Winehouse’s advertiser corrected Mitch Winehouse’s previous mistakes that his daughter had early-stage emphysema, claiming instead that she had indications of what could lead to early-stage emphysema. Mitch Winehouse also said the lungs of his daughter were working at a capability of 70 percent and she had an irregular heartbeat.
He said that these problems had been caused by her chain-smoking crack cocaine. The singer’s dad also revealed that Winehouse had been advised by physicians that she would have to wear an oxygen mask and ultimately die if she continued to smoke crack cocaine. In a radio interview, Mitch Winehouse said the singer responded “fabulously” to nicotine therapy.
British Lung Foundation spokesman Keith Prowse noted this type of condition could be managed with treatment. Prowse also said that the situation was not normal for an individual of her era, but “heavy smoking and inhalation of other substances such as drugs can prematurely age the lungs.” Edelman of the American Lung Association stated that if she stopped smoking, the rat would lose her lung functions.
Amy Winehouse Death
The singer was discovered dead on Saturday evening, July 23, 2011, at the age of 27, in her apartment in Camden, north London. The new inquiry repeated the findings that Winehouse had 416 mg alcohol per liter in her blood, sufficient to make her comatose and depress her breathing system. Paramedics discovered her dead, completely clothed, with a laptop on her bed and empty vodka cans on the ground.
Winehouse’s bodyguard said that he had arrived at her residence three days before her death and felt she had been somewhat intoxicated. He observed moderate drinking over the next few days. He observed her “laughing, listening to music and watching TV at 2 a.m. the day of her death”.
According to the bodyguard, at 10 a.m. he observed her lying on her bed and tried unsuccessfully to rouse her. This did not raise much suspicion because she usually slept late after a night out. Shortly after 3 p.m., he checked her again, according to the bodyguard, and observed her lying in the same position as before, leading to another check-in which he concluded that she was not breathing and had no pulse. He said that he later called emergency services.
Amy Winehouse Cause Of Death
An inquiry from a coroner reached a misadventure verdict. The study published on October 26, 2011, stated that the blood alcohol content of Winehouse at the moment of her death was 416 mg per 100 ml (0.416 percent), more than five times the legal limit for drinking-drive. According to the coroner, “The unintended consequences of such possibly deadly concentrations were her sudden death.
British authorities reopened the death probe of Winehouse on 17 December 2012. A second inquiry verified on 8 January 2013 that Winehouse died of accidental alcohol poisoning. In a late June 2013 interview, Alex Winehouse disclosed his conviction that the main cause of her death was the eating disorder of his sister and the consequent physical weakness.
Amy Winehouse Funeral
On July 26, 2011, at the Edgwarebury Lane cemetery in north London, family, and friends attended Winehouse’s funeral. Her mom and dad, Janis and Mitch Winehouse, close friend Kelly Osbourne, producer Mark Ronson and her boyfriend Reg Traviss attended the private service led by Rabbi Frank Hellner.
Her dad delivered the eulogy, stating “Goodnight, my angel, sleep tight. Mummy and Daddy always love you so much.” The service was finished by Carole King’s “So Far Away” with mourners singing along. At Golders Green Crematorium, she was later cremated.
Winehouse’s parents set up The Amy Winehouse Foundation to prevent damage from drug abuse among youth, and Amy Winehouse’s brother Alex is an employee. Winehouse did not leave a will; her property was inherited from her parents.
