Amy Winehouse - Dad Blames Ex For Winehouse's Continued Partying

AMY WINEHOUSE's dad MITCH is fuming following the star's return to the London party scene - and he blames her ex-husband, BLAKE FIELDER-CIVIL.

The singer has endured a turbulent few years battling an addiction to narcotics and alcohol, which led to several hospitalisations and rehab attempts.

After a lengthy break in the Caribbean and the finalisation of her divorce from Fielder-Civil last month (Jul09), Mitch hoped his wayward daughter had overcome her troubles.

But Winehouse has promptly returned to the bars and pubs of London - and was photographed looking teary-eyed and tipsy after a night out in the British capital earlier this week (beg17Aug09).

A witness tells Britain's Daily Mail newspaper, "Everyone's been saying that Amy's on the mend, but her behaviour was very worrying. She didn't seem to know what was going on and didn't seem able to walk on her own. People were effectively holding her upright."

A spokesperson admitted the star had "quite a few drinks" but denied she had been taking drugs.

But her father is furious with her latest antics, amid speculation Winehouse is considering a reunion with Fielder-Civil, who is currently in rehab to treat his own substance abuse problems.

Winehouse's dad told a friend, "Seven months of good work is all unravelling because of Blake. What is he doing to her? Why can't he leave her alone?"
