Blake Fielder-Civil, otherwise known as Mr Amy Winehouse, is in jail for assault and bribery, but his mother says that when he is eventually released, he won’t be going to rehab. It isn’t the answer, the solution to his drug issues is warm home-cooked meals.
“I don’t think rehab is the answer,” Georgette Civil tells People of her son, currently serving a jail sentence for assault and attempting to pervert the course of justice.
What is the answer? “Coming home to us,” Civil says.
Blake has already declined an offer to leave jail early for his mother’s house, choosing to stay incarcerated. Drugs are probably easier to get there.
I don’t like Georgette’s odds at getting her adult husband to return to his childhood home, rather than moving in with his wife and her candy floss machine. Particularly given that Georgette says she has had no contact with Amy for many months. I think she’ll need her help to convince Blake to move home.
Civil says she speaks to her son “sometimes every day” – but never to Winehouse, 25.
“I don’t speak to Amy. I focus all my efforts on my son and getting him out,” she says. Her last conversation with Winehouse was “about four or five months ago,” she says. “I probably spoke with her one more time after court [Fielder-Civil's trial in June].”
Adds Civil: “I feel all the media attention on Amy has probably had an impact on my son’s release. That’s probably the hardest part of all. As a mother, what would any mother think when she sees Amy? It has had a huge impact.”
I have to admit, looking at Amy Winehouse, I wouldn’t want her for a daughter in law either, even if she’s so talented and wealthy. As much as the couple love each other – and I think they do – they just don’t seem to be very good rehab companions. I think when released we may need to give Blake Incarcerated the new title of Blake Enabler.
Georgette says that Blake is helping fellow inmates with literacy, and sends home requests for books to read.

Does anybody know his release date? Does he have one? Wasn’t it next month or so?

MSat, you took the words out of my mouth. Must buy her clothes at Whores-R-Us.

Georgette Fielder-Civil has already demonstrated her total denial about her son’s habits. It’s no surprise that she thinks a bit of home-cooking will fix the situation: the woman is in cloud-cuckoo land.

MSat, I think its the polka-dotted neckerchief that makes the outfit so fabulous. Class act all the way.

OK, my comment on the Blake Mother is in moderation. But I just want to ask, who is the really ugly man having the smoke break with the Mother, with his too-tight suit coat buttoned all the way up?
Sometimes it just surprises me that there really are people like these in this world.

Pretty sure it’s the father. The mother is the worst type of enabler. Denial denial denial.

If she wears those clothes to court, I’d hate to see what she wears when she wants to loosen up.

What a hot bitch!! LOL. I especially love the bags under the eyes as she pulls a drag off that fag. SEXY. (not to mention that hot ass stance)
I kid. She makes Amy look like Christy Turlington.

ha! the very first thing i noticed was that guy with the wayyy to tight jacket on!
i think his mom is confused, this guy is a MESS and she thinks she can save him by making him some chicken noodle soup and reading him a bedtime story? i feel bad for amy and him, they are a mess together.

Yeah, she’s done such a bang-up job of raising a manipulative user/enabler, she should have him home for a refresher course.
Seriously, who does this woman think she is, and why does she think she should be allowed to dictate the life of her adult cree- I mean, son?
Ps – It’s sad to see that picture of Amy in a state of relative health. Her brains still may be completely scrambled at that point, but at least her body doesn’t look like it is going to topple under the weight of her weave. Poor Amy. Leave your abusive relationship and find some inner peace.

Just look at that mom, she is LOVING the attention. I think that’s what’s stopping the parents of both of these twats (Blake & Amy) from really getting in there & getting their hands dirty trying to save their kids – look at the attention they get! They get their photo taken! They’re in the news!
Gross.

Bless Him, no wonder Blake loves Amy, his mum looks like Amy in 20 years time, maybe sooner.

Mrs. Field-of-Dreams looks like a worn-out, used-up extra from an 80s rock video.
