10:49AM Clem Bastow | Winegums and Uncivil really are living in some kind of star-crossed lovers fantasy or something, aren’t they? As our high-school job boss once said (of Charles and Camilla), we know love is blind, but… fuck!
Anyway, Winegums looks set to derail her comeback tour before it’s even begun by
choosing instead to support hubby Blake in court.
Blake is due in the dock on November 12 on a GBH charge after he was accused of battering an East End pub landlord last year. He strongly denies the charge. Besotted Amy is determined to be by his side as he tries to avoid a jail term.
But she is due in Manchester on the same night to play her first UK tour gig since recovering from her drugs overdose.
Family friends say Amy’s dad Mitch is terrified that if Blake is banged up, it may tip fragile Amy over the edge.
A source said: “Blake comes first in Amy’s life — everything else comes second, including her career.
“She doesn’t care that she has a gig that night. Nothing is going to stop her being in court with him.
Is this really surprising to anyone? We might even create a new tag for Winegums Watch, something like “pfffttt”, or something similarly mature, as befits a regular feature dedicated to giddy schoolyard schadenfreude at the expense of troubled singers.
