Marie Claire celebrity news: Amy Winehouse

Amy Winehouse's soon-to-be-ex-husband is demanding a £1 million pay-off in exchange for his silence, according to reports.

Despite insisting only last week that he wasn't after Amy's money, Blake Fielder-Civil has allegedly asked for the vast sum of money to keep schtum about their rocky relationship.

'That’s all pretence,' a friend of the Back to Black singer told the News of the World. 'Blake has asked Amy’s manager for £1million to walk away from their marriage and not write a tell-all book about it.'

'He’s so two-faced. He just wants a pay-off. Money’s his driving force.'

However, Blake's mum, Georgette, claimed that Amy's dad, Mitch, has already offered her son £50,000 to divorce the troubled singer.

But Georgette insisted that Blake isn't interested in Amy's cash, saying: 'Mitch’s £50,000 offer was an insult. Amy’s worth £10 million and Blake’s her husband. He’s entitled to at least £3 million after all he’s been through with her.'

Blake is currently back in prison after failing a drugs test at the Surry rehab centre where he was serving out the rest of his 27-month sentence for assault.
