Amy Winehouse’s dad Mitch seems to be her main shoulder to cry on, as well as her unofficial spokesman, and now he’s given her a show of public support after a video of her singing a racist song was leaked to a tabloid newspaper. It’s going to be a rough week for Amy – as well as the racism allegations, it’s also now been confirmed that Blakeincarcerated has pleaded guilty to assaulting a pub landlord – but Mitch says things aren’t as bad as they appear. “If people could see the real Amy – the full picture, not just the worst photos – they would realise she is not in a constant pit of misery or permanently drug-addled,” he says. “She's upbeat – even jolly – and she's been writing some fantastic new songs. She's really looking forward to performing again. She is getting better, working hard, standing by her husband and desperate to have a family. I honestly think in two years she will be fit, healthy and having babies – and motherhood will be her drug.”
