Blake Fielder-Civil tells of 'regrets' using heroin with Amy Winehouse

Blake Fielder-Civil, who was once married to Amy Winehouse, has expressed remorse for introducing the late soul singer to heroin. He acknowledged that he should have been more cautious in his own drug use when he was around her.

At present, there is an increased focus on the 41-year-old due to his depiction in the movie Back To Black. In this biographical film, which has caused controversy, Skins actor Jack O'Connell plays the role of the man. The movie has recently been released in theaters.

He confessed that he introduced her to stronger drugs like heroin. However, he denies being responsible for her untimely passing due to alcohol poisoning when she was only 27 years old. Some of her fans have criticized the filmmakers for glossing over certain parts of the singer's life.

During his speech today, the man who is a father of two children, said again that he feels bad about using drugs. He also mentioned that he hasn't talked with Amy's dad Mitch in a long time. He wants to reconnect with him, because he believes that's what the singer would have preferred.

However, acquaintances of the deceased vocalist have voiced their disapproval regarding certain aspects of the biographical movie. They argue that Blake is overly empathized with, presenting an unrealistic perspective. Additionally, it has been supported by Mitch, who had an unfavorable representation in the documentary 'Amy' back in 2015.

During an interview on Good Morning Britain, Blake Fielder-Civil discussed his representation in the Amy Winehouse biographical film, Back To Black.

of his controversial past. Despite the criticisms, he believes that the film accurately depicts his life story and does not shy away from the challenges and mistakes he has made along the way. He stood up for the way the film presented him, despite some people's negative opinions of it as too forgiving and glossing over his questionable history. He thinks the movie shows his life accurately and doesn't avoid the difficulties and wrong choices he made in the past.

During the programme, he expressed remorse over having taken heroin together with Amy. However, he has consistently denied being directly accountable for her passing in 2011 (as seen in their 2007 photo).

In Sam Taylor-Johnson's biographical movie titled Back To Black, Marisa Abela and Jack O'Connell take on the roles of Amy Winehouse and Blake Fielder-Civil. Specifically, they act out a scene that portrays the couple's wedding in Miami back in 2007.

During his appearance on Good Morning Britain, Adil Ray and Kate Garraway interviewed him, and Garraway inquired about his past drug consumption.

The romantic involvement between Blake and Amy was widely exposed to the public, with the intense light of paparazzi cameras capturing their moments (as depicted in Soho, London in the year 2007).

After Blake's imprisonment due to his involvement in assaulting a pub landlord, Amy remained supportive of him. However, soon after his release from prison, Blake initiated divorce proceedings in order to liberate her. Amy can be seen entering court alongside her father, Mitch, for the case.

During an appearance on Good Morning Britain, Blake revealed that he had a new teardrop tattoo under his right eye. He also shared with hosts Kate Garraway and Adil Ray that he had been attempting to accept accountability for a long time regarding his part in Amy's struggles with addiction.

During a conversation in 2013, he accepted that he had made the songster familiar with heroin after experimenting with it himself 'a few times'.

However, in 2015 he attempted to dissociate himself from the allegations that he was accountable for her demise by stating in an interview that Amy had previously struggled with other dependencies before they crossed paths.

He expressed to GMB that he doesn't usually talk about it, but he has been feeling like all he's been doing for a while is trying to take responsibility. He mentioned that it has been a burden for him to cope with.

I have received threatening messages on the internet and social networking platforms. Amy's dedicated fan following is very passionate and intense.

Kate inquired if he had any remorse about introducing Amy to heroin and remarked that it must be a significant remorse to be the one who introduced her to it.

He stated that he is aware of the idea of heroin and acknowledges that it is an awful and dreadful drug. He also stated that he was once an addict, therefore he understands that the issue is not as simple or straightforward as it may seem.

As a very youthful individual, I was convinced that I had everything figured out. However, I now deeply regret having engaged in any form of drug use.

Had I been aware of how things were going to unfold, I would have exercised caution in my actions and those I associated with.

Blake mentioned that he hasn't conversed with Amy's dad Mitch for many years, however, he thinks that Amy would wish for both of them to reconcile.

I believe that if Mitch were to watch the movie, there would be certain scenes that make him reflect and feel regretful about his previous actions.

Perhaps he has some regrets similar to mine, although not as significant as mine.

In my opinion, a message conveyed through the movie is that Amy was someone who sought to maintain harmony. As I viewed the film yesterday, it occurred to me that she might urge me and Mitch to engage in dialogue- while we do not have to be bosom buddies, having a chat wouldn't hurt.

As a dad myself, I empathize with Mitch and his perspective towards me. I fully comprehend his stance on the matter.

I wish he could have recognized that there was authentic affection between Amy and me. I had deep feelings for Amy, and she reciprocated those feelings as well.

If there was something that could make her return, I would definitely make it happen. She always suggested that Mitch and Blake should communicate with each other.

The spouse of Amy Winehouse, Fielder-Civil, who is 41 years old, had been married to her for two years in a relationship filled with difficulties. During that time, he had the negative influence of introducing her to heroin. (Shown in a picture of the couple from 2007)

British actor Eddie Marsan, who played a role in the film Back to Black, has countered the suggestion that either Blake Fielder-Civil, Amy Winehouse's husband, or Mitch Winehouse, her father, were responsible for her untimely demise.

The British performer, aged 55, portraying Mitch Winehouse in the biographical film (shown alongside Marisa Abela as Amy), expressed an alternative view, stating that addiction should be perceived as the primary antagonist.

Movie experts have heavily criticized the biographical motion picture as a low-quality work of cinema and a mere imitation of the featured celebrity, suitable for weekend viewing.

The movie, under the direction of Sam Taylor-Johnson, narrates the biography of the singer who passed away in 2011 at the age of 27 due to alcohol poisoning (Amy shown in 2008).

Blake mentioned that he believed that his representation in the movie was precise, as their connection was not just limited to substance abuse.

"It feels unreal to watch a movie about someone you know, just like with Jack, who portrayed my character," he expressed.

We were a couple, and our love was strong - but there were challenges we had to face when it came to addiction.

In a sense, it felt like a form of therapy as I could witness a more precise portrayal of the relationship.

The absence of something is somewhat similar to covering it up, but in this case, it wasn't solely about addiction. Although that may be the juicy part, it was just one part of the relationship.

The movie Back To Black, which was directed by Sam Taylor-Johnson, who previously directed Nowhere Boy, has been met with criticism for its purportedly overly sympathetic representation of Blake.

Peter Hoskin from The Mail raised concerns over Jack O'Connell's depiction of Blake as overly pure and saint-like, suggesting that the film avoids showing any of the less attractive aspects of her life to the point where it looks like a beautifully polished advertisement.

A buddy shared with the Mail that in their opinion, Blake and Amy's relationship seemed like a fairy tale come to life, with Blake taking on the role of a charming and likable rogue rather than a hopeless drug addict who led Amy down a path of destruction.

A new positive aspect of the movie, which has been released today, is that Amy appears charming and pure, and her gift in music is conveyed flawlessly. However, it is unjustifiable to absolve Blake of his wrongdoing.

Sam Taylor-Johnson has expressed that when depicting Blake, it was crucial to comprehend why Amy was drawn to him. The focus was not to create a character that was solely evil.

To comprehend why she penned one of the most remarkable albums regarding their relationship, we needed to develop affection for him.

Regarding Blake, it was not my position to make any evaluations about a person who was evidently struggling with addiction, nor about their extremely passionate yet unhealthy romantic relationship.

People who review movies also raised concerns about how the character of Amy's dad, portrayed by Eddie Marsan, was depicted. However, the Winehouse family approved of the film.

Eddie mentioned that he had no interest in portraying a character that portrayed him as either a saint or a devil. He also expressed his belief that Mitch was a caring father who found himself in an extremely challenging predicament.

Marisa Abela, who is 27 years old, received recognition for her representation of Winehouse. Fans were initially displeased with her appearance because she didn't resemble the singer in the film's first look, which was released in the beginning of this year.

"Back To Black" is the movie where she got her first principal role, and she later confessed that she had to endure long hours of singing classes to imitate Amy's unique contralto pitching.

Janis and Mitch Winehouse, the parents of Amy Winehouse, attended the premiere of Back to Black. The film has received support from the late singer's estate.

Jack O'Connell, Marisa Abela, Sam Taylor-Johnson, and Eddie Marsan all attended the recent premiere of Back To Black.

The director of the upcoming Amy Winehouse movie, Back To Black, Sam Taylor-Johnson, is receiving criticism from friends of the deceased singer for glorifying her spouse Blake Fielder-Civil.

In September, Blake discussed his rocky romance with Amy, who penned her smash hit Back To Black about him following their split when he went back to an old flame. He expressed his desire to alter a vast majority of his past experiences.

Last year, during his appearance on GMB, he shared that things could have turned out differently if certain circumstances were different. Amy's life went by very fast because they were both young.

Blake commented on Amy's substance abuse issues, saying, "I do receive blame for them, and that's alright. How others perceive it is beyond my control. However, I realized I needed to release the weight of carrying that burden. It's been over a decade since I've been carrying it."

In that tale, I am the sole individual who has accepted any responsibility. I attempted to acknowledge that I committed significant blunders. At that point in my life, I was a young adult struggling with drug addiction.

They tied the knot in Miami in 2007 following a turbulent romantic history. However, just a few months later, photographs emerged of them looking angry and heated, revealing that they had been using heroin.

The next year, Blake got sent to prison for his involvement in an attack on a bar owner. This led to Amy's well-known memorial at the Grammy Awards where she spoke of 'my Blake, behind bars.'

After he was released from jail, Blake initiated divorce proceedings against the singer.

In the month of May, two years after Amy's passing, he welcomed his son into the world. Following that, his daughter Lola was born in April 2013.

After Amy passed away in 2011, an official inquiry determined that her death was accidental and caused by alcohol poisoning. The inquiry found that she had a blood alcohol level of 416 milligrams per deciliter at the time of her death.

Black Is Back: Reviews

This biopic commits all the typical mistakes and even more. It jumps hastily from Winehouse's early years, when she used to wear a cardigan, to her successful period in the mid-2000s, and ultimately to her death caused by drinking. As a result, we don't really get to know her or the people in her life.

This movie doesn't present a pleasant or just depiction of her as a person, and it doesn't effectively highlight how talented she was as an artist. The very last part of the film is especially shocking because it contains absurd and sensational implications. I was deeply horrified and even had a physical reaction.

Marisa Abela delivers a captivating and charming portrayal of Amy, however it could be argued that she has softened some of Amy's harsher qualities.

Back to Black may provide some entertainment and boost the professional paths of Abela and O'Connell. However, it cannot be considered as significant as Winehouse's body of work. The album seems to be hesitant in exploring darker themes.

Abela and O'Connell's explosive connection serves as a testament to Taylor-Johnson's ability to stir up sensual desires, proving that even amidst the superficiality of 50 Shades Of Grey's risqué content, women can still be moved by the allure of a man.

The inconsistent energy of the movie starts with Marisa Abela, a British actor who perfectly embodies Amy Winehouse in every aspect of her appearance, emotions, speech, and musical talent.
