Is Amy Back In Rehab?

Amy Winehouse There’s a bunch of chat that suggests Amy Winehouse is heading back to rehab.

We won’t make a joke about her saying no, no, no...

But it’s all very confusing, to be sure.

The rehab rumour sprang into action at the beginning of this year, when Ms Winehouse checked herself into a clinic for treatment over apparent drug addiction, before leaving again two weeks later.

More recently, Amy’s been snapped out and about with painful-looking sores on her face, reigniting fears over her health.

The Sun newspaper reported that she was coming to terms with the idea of rehab once more, with a source saying:

"Amy has admitted she needs to check into rehab again.

"There are too many temptations for her in the UK - people around her in London are making it impossible for her to stay clean for any length of time.

"Her management considered sending her to a clinic in Israel but are now looking further afield. They are assessing a clinic in Cape Town in South Africa."

However, Amy’s peeps have dismissed the claims, telling Us magazine:

"Amy’s doing well. She is not going back to rehab at this time.

They added: "The problem is that her face looks bad because of impetigo — it’s not a nice thing, but it’s not related to drugs. It’s a bacterial infection."

They said that Amy was now "having time off, recording a bit at her home studios, about to go back into the studio properly and working towards her husband’s freedom".

So now you know.
