Amy Winehouse has been left reeling after her ex-husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, demanded a £6million payoff.Blake claims he is entitled to the fortune because he inspired her massively successful album Back To Black by cheating on her.
Fielder-Civil, 27, was granted a quickie divorce on Thursday on the grounds of Amy’s adultery.
“Amy did write Back To Black when Blake left her, but why on earth should he be getting a dime for making her feel so bad?” a source told Britain’s News of The World newspaper.
“She was at her lowest ebb when she wrote that album. Her boyfriend had left her for another woman and she poured her heart and soul into the writing process.
“It’s like saying that the man who writes a book about his murdered wife should give the murderer some of the profits.
“It’s an absolutely ridiculous request.
“The judge has given the Decree Nisi and the Decree Absolute will follow in six weeks.
“Blake has to make a claim before that but he has made it clear to Amy privately he wants millions. She believes she’s right and Blake has no real case for a stake at her money.
“Amy’s distraught because she hopes to get back to St Lucia and move on with a new phase of her life but doesn’t think Blake will go quietly. Blake’s family don’t want him to ask for money but he hasn’t given up on a hefty payday.
“He thinks he was a big part of her success with Back To Black and deserves money for what he put up with.
“Amy is furious and doesn’t want to negotiate.
“But she’s happy for his outrageous demands to be made public because she wants to show him up.”
