Amy Winehouse's family left 'bereft', fears for ex' safety (+ photos, video)

Amy Winehouse's family have been left "bereft" by her death.

The Rehab singer was found dead at her home in Camden, North London on Saturday after a suspected alcohol and drugs overdose and a statement from her loved ones reveals the heartbreak they are battling.

The statement said: "Our family has been left bereft by the loss of Amy, a wonderful daughter, sister and niece. She leaves a gaping hole in our lives. We are coming together to remember her and we would appreciate some privacy and space at this terrible time."

Amy's family are not the only people struggling to cope with her loss. At his gig with The Faces in Hurtwood, Surrey, South East England last night, Absolute Radio DJ Ronnie Wood dedicated his performance of 'I Would Rather Go Blind' to the tragic 27-year-old singer.

He said: "It is a very sad loss, of a very good friend, I spent great times with, she was such a beautiful singer, it is such a waste."

Queen's Roger Taylor was in the crowd to watch the show and as he took to the stage he said "Tonight is about Amy, we lost a very special girl and we are going to pay tribute to her".

Amy is survived by her father Mitch, mother Janis and brother Alex.

Meanwhile

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 Monday UK time.

In keeping with Jewish tradition, a statement from London's Metropolitan Police ruled out a funeral on Sunday.

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