When I go to court to cheer on my drug-using, enabling criminal husband, I try to keep my thoughts to myself and my mouth shut. I’ve always thought that was just proper decorum in the court of law. But apparently Amy Winehouse and I treat our drug addict spouses differently, or at least the court of law differently. Because while I sit there quietly, Amy seems to think she’s at a ballgame, and hollers out encouragement and grandiose statement of undying love. But to be fair, Amy is most likely on enough drugs that she’s seeing things whipping around her and men running to and fro, so she probably does think she’s at a ballgame or something.
Forget the break-up rumors: Apparently, all is well between Amy Winehouse and her incarcerated husband Blake Fielder-Civil. The singer, 24, declared her love for her man at his hearing today at London’s Snaresbrook Crown Court. (Fielder-Civil, 25, is charged with with conspiracy involving alleged witness tampering and inflicting grievous bodily harm in his upcoming assault trial.)
After arriving late to a packed courtroom, Winehouse sat down with Fielder-Civil’s step-mom Georgette, holding her hand, a witness says. “She was quiet at first, but then Amy blew kisses at Blake and started whispering ‘I love you’ over and over,” the witness tells Usmagazine.com. As he was led back to jail, she began shouting, “‘I love you, handsome! Gorgeous, I love you!'” the witness adds.

Well so much for my naively hoped-for theory that Amy was picking herself up and getting away from the black hole that is Blake. I’m telling you, that guy is an emotional vacuum, who occasionally spits up a bag of cocaine. Just like my vacuum. Weird. Blake still has some bizarre hold on Amy, and it seems he’s still got a good chance of bleeding her dry. Amy recently went on a vacation with her ex-boyfriend, appeared to have put on a little much-needed weight, and dyed her hair incredibly ugly platinum. I was hoping it was sort of a two steps forward, one step back situation, and that she was finally breaking free of Blake. But whatever codependent junkie drama the two had going on seems to still be in full effect. I really hope he ends up in prison for a while. Not just because he assaulted someone… though that’d obviously be the primary, legal reason. But from the moral celebrity standpoint, Amy being separated from Blake could only do her good. And isn’t that just as ethical a reason to keep him locked up as him assaulting someone and then witness tampering? I thought so.
