Back to Black singer Amy Winehouse dreamed of having children, a documentary marking the 10th anniversary of her death reveals.
It includes an interview in which Amy is asked where she wants to be in 10 years. She replies: “I would like to have a couple of kids, two or three.”
Friends speaking out for the first time back this up.
Tearful Catriona Gourlay said: “She wanted to be a mum.” Chantelle Dusette added: “She would have been a beautiful mum.”
The BBC documentary Reclaiming Amy is out on July 23, 10 years after paramedics found her dead at her home, aged just 27.
There were empty vodka bottles on the floor of her house in Camden, North London. She had died of alcohol poisoning.
Amy had a well-documented drug habit, regularly using heroin, crack cocaine and cannabis – but had got herself clean.
Pal Naomi Parry said: “There were long weeks of sobriety interspersed with periods of binge drinking.”
The programme also features Amy’s parents Mitch and Janis, who separated when Amy was 10.
They took great issue with Asif Kapadia’s Oscar-winning 2015 documentary Amy for suggesting Mitch and others failed to do enough to help the star.
Mitch said: “In 2015, I had a nervous breakdown because of that film.
“It was so destructive and for what reason?”
He has previously claimed pals of Amy walked out of interviews with Kapadia as they felt the questions were so loaded.
He said: “They were with her all the time but the film portrays her as a lonely girl on her own all the time.
“I used to go round to the house and there could be 30 people in there – and I’m not talking about the old days – they were good people and good to be around Amy.”
