Amy Winehouse’s mother remembers the last words she exchanged with her daughter.
July 23rd marks the anniversary of Amy Winehouse’s death (1983-2011). Janis Winehouse-Collins, the late singer’s mother, remembers her daughter in conversation with the presenter Lorraine Kelly (61). She last saw Amy the day before she died.
Winehouse-Collins can “exactly” remember the last words they exchanged: “I said to her: ‘Amy, I love you.” Mommy. ” So the relationship between the two was easy. Winehouse-Collins was always able to express her love for her daughter, Amy in turn was very “protective” when it came to her mother.
“The worst day of my life”
For Richard Collins, the husband of Winehouse-Collins, the anniversary of Amy’s death was “the worst day” of his life. The singer died in the summer of 2011 as a result of alcohol poisoning. At that time he had to bring the bad news to his wife. Collins got the terrible phone call and said to his wife: “Janis, I don’t know what to say, she left us.”
Janis Winehouse-Collins initially thought that Richard was talking about his mother, who was sick at the time and died about a month after Amy. But he had to explain to his wife that her “baby” had died. Winehouse-Collins just stood there and couldn’t believe it. Today he doesn’t remember “Popstar Amy” at all, but above all the young Amy, who was always “full of fun and nonsense”.
On July 23, “BBC Two” will show, in which not only friends and family of the singer will have their say. Private recordings and rare material from performances will also be shown.
