Arm in arm: the troubled couple presented a united front
Love has denied reports she was shocked at the Back to Black singer's cocaine use, which she was said to have witnessed first hand.
According to the weekend reports, the former Hole frontwoman told friends: "Amy does more drugs than anyone I've known. I've been with lots of people when they've taken coke, including stars like Lindsay Lohan and Kate Moss.

Courntney Love denies she said Amy Winehouse took more drugs that anyone she knew
"But I've never seen anyone take as much coke as Amy. Even I wasn't that bad."
However, outspoken Love told music publication NME: "I said no such thing. I care deeply about her talent, I love this record tons, but I wouldn't comment even if I did have any knowledge.
"My deepest apologies to anyone who believes this nonsense, that I would judge or fingerpoint unless I felt that [many] people's lives were on the line."

"Sorry, this is all just not true. My apologies to Ms Winehouse for this ill-informed nonsense. It's not something I would say or do. Especially about someone, again, who I barely know and have unlimited admiration for."
While she denies commenting on Winehouse's drug battle, she showed no such restraint towards troubled Hollywood star Owen Wilson last week.

The singer passed up rehab for a getaway to the Caribbean
Love publicly blamed her former boyfriend Steve Coogan for the comedian's downward spiral.
The 43-year-old, who had an affair with Coogan after he moved to the US three years ago, said: "Under normal circumstances I would not comment but I care too much about Owen.
"I went through it with Steve. I was just out of rehab and he was right there with the drugs.
"I tried to warn Owen. I tried to warn his friends. I hope from the bottom of my heart that Owen stays the hell away from that guy."
Coogan denied the claims and is reportedly seeking legal action.
