Amy Winehouse - Winehouses Mother Amys Wedding Was A Joke

AMY WINEHOUSE's mother was far from upset when the troubled star eloped to wed last year (07) - because she believes her daughter's nuptials to BLAKE FIELDER-CIVIL were a "joke".

The Rehab hitmaker wed the music industry assistant, 25, in an unannounced ceremony in Miami, Florida last May (07) - less than a month after he proposed to her.

And although the 24-year-old's father, Mitch, begged the star not to tie the knot until she returned to her native England, her mother Janis insists she wasn't upset about the rushed affair.

She tells Britain's Daily Mail newspaper, "He's been in prison for almost as long as they've been together. It's a joke. But then so was the wedding, really.

"I wasn't upset by it because it meant nothing; nothing whatsoever... I know Mitch, Amy's father, was upset (but) I think they were in Miami and got caught up in the moment, and that was it. It was more like a picnic in the park than a wedding."

Fielder-Civil is currently being held on remand at London's Pentonville Prison, where he will remain until at least 9 June (08), on charges of perverting the course of justice, relating to a previous charge of grievous bodily harm.
