Mother worried Blake Fielder-Civil will 'kill himself'

The mother of Amy Winehouse's ex-husband Blake Fielder-Civil is terrified her son will "kill himself" over her death.

Georgette Fielder-Civil - whose son was divorced from Amy in 2009 after two years of marriage- is worried that Blake, who is currently serving 32 months in prison for burglary and possession of an imitation firearm, will self-harm while in jail when he hears about the singer's demise from a suspected overdose.

She told the Daily Star Sunday: "I can't believe it. I could cry.

"Blake will kill himself. He won't make it without her. He will be devastated, totally and utterly devastated. He'll go straight back to self-harming. I'll have to ring the prison and he'll have to be put on watch.

"He was always ringing her and she was always ringing him. Blake always wanted her back. She couldn't walk away from him and he couldn't walk away from her. Her and Blake were both lost and we handled it badly."

Meanwhile, it is believed Amy's post-mortem will not take place before tomorrow.

Although it had been suggested her funeral would be held soon, in keeping with Jewish tradition, a statement from London's Metropolitan Police has ruled this out.

The statement said: "Death of Amy Winehouse - a date and time for the post-mortem will not be scheduled before Monday morning."
