The Amy documentary was very telling in how he approached his daughter's addiction. See the film for yourselves.
Right, he didn’t. He’s a selfish prick.
I hate him. He wasn’t a father. But merely more like a friend trying to get money off of her. She was to beautiful, talented, and kind to die. I was young when she died. But I still care. RIP I hope she knows how many people love her and know some of the real side of her story.
who cares. stay away from drugs. period
Riding off his dead daughters back.. he is a real lowlife
You *don’t* know him and you never will
How can you judge someone you don't know ....its better to judge yourself ...! It's an easy way ( and most of the fans want to think) but not the right way to say it was her father's fault or her boyfriends fault ......
If she hadn't been famous people would be more realistic...
I relly couldn`t agree more.
My god, Mitch comes on here still wanting to the be the centre of a attention.
Please leave Amy alone.
To put it nicely, f**k off.
He didn t care ,and now he realizes how to be a good dad. C mon, look at the house he s living in: he abused Amy pushing her to the spotlight to earn more money from her. “ i wasn t with her in serbia” well mitch, you should have been with her all the time. And allowing her going to DETOX instead of rehab, it was a way to keeping her making shows. She finally wanted to get off drugs and media and you brought cameras in st lucia, well sr. You should be so ashamed. In the name of love or whatever you feel stop lying.
Guilt. He feels guilt and embarrassment so deep he'll never own up to it. He knows he indirectly killed her.
@@ablurida No he doesn’t. He gives off a distinctly narcissistic vibe, and they NEVER feel responsible or guilty. They are always the victims who need attention.
@@ourcorrectopinions6824 yeah I smell his narcissism even through CZcams ffs
U said everything
@@ourcorrectopinions6824 Yeah I get the vibe that the fucker doesn't even blame himself. He feels pain 100 percent. But he will never take accountability for his role in her death. Maybe momentarily, but not in general.
He was so effing rude but Tamron handled him like the professional journalist that she is
No he wasn’t. She basically blamed him for his daughters death.
@@TiffanyR and if you followed Amy’s story, you’d know why...
@@l.c.warren5638 How do you know I didn’t? Maybe I just have a different opinion!
She’s not a professional journalist lmao
@@l.c.warren5638 you followed the story and made a crucial mistake. The story is *not* reality!
She was a powerful!!! One of the strongest female voices of her time.R.I.P🙏🏽
On that last stage performance I WOULD HAVE BEEN THERE TO HOLD MY CHILD!!!!! I would have never had her there alone knowing her situation my love to her spirit
Thank you!
He didn’t give a crap about her, he just loved her money.
She didn’t have that much money?
@@jetsofaqua2206 I do understand what you’re saying! But yes Amy had money may have not been millions of deals, and endorsements because the world wasn’t that Progress yet but yes she had money
@@jetsofaqua2206 just let them go love, 🚶♂️, truth will out oi?
Amy left an estate worth nearly £5m which was roughly halved by the time various debts were taken care of. She died unmarried, no kids, intestate (i.e. she didn't have a will) which under England and Wales law meant her parents could apply for probate (which it seems they did) and get a 50-50 split of her assets.
She was much wealthier earlier in life (some estimates say in excess of £10m) although it was sadly squandered on drugs and booze. Paul Gascoigne used to be worth north of £30m but now he's barely surviving.
Bear in mind that Amy was 27 (i.e. young), massively talented and making a recovery with strong potential for the future. There was every chance she would have stayed on the wagon, continued knocking out bangers and earned herself even more money. Had she lived she would be 40 years old right now and that's decades of work and earning potential if she'd wanted it.
The house she bought in 2010 was expensive and would be worth even more today, but it was sold privately around 2012 or thereabouts.
@@jetsofaqua2206 she was a self made millionaire!
Problems start in childhood... with family and friends... a dad who pretends to have a heart attack because he can't get his daughter's attention ..... are you kidding me?
disgusting behaviour indeed
As a daughter of a narcissist (or possibly even two), I know what it's like to chose toxic relationships, as well as find escape in drugs and alcohol in your pre-adult and adult life.... All stems from a neglectful and unloving childhood.
There IS help out there but it's a very small door in a very big room and not everyone can find it. Amy definitely didn't 😢
Total leach off the talent of his daughter, trying to position himself to get an album deal. Waste of space
Couldn't agree more! Hes no better than Blake.
He’s talented 2 and admits that he only got a shot because of his daughter in interviews
She had a quite unusual life style for a London "jewish family standards". Everyone is on denial when asked why not enough was done, when all she wanted was just to be loved, it is pretty obvious she had no one to rely on, other than alcohol and drug addiction.
I've read Mitch's book about Amy. He truly tried to help her and Amy went to rehab 3 to 4 times in her life. It didn't work. She was hospitalized many times. It didn't work. They tried to distract her with work so she can have something else to do other than drink everyday and that didn't help either. Amy was the only person that had the power to stop. She just didn't want to do it. It's sad how people blame him on everything. Amy was her own person. No matter how much they tried to help her she couldn't fight it. Addiction took her. As an ex alcoholic myself, if my father forced me to go to rehab I would yell against it. The only person that can help yourself is.. well yourself. People judging on the internet when they don't know half the truth or they don't know anything about addiction. It's sad.
This is so sad. Having her life exposed to millions is one of the reasons she hurt, and he's selling out her life even after her life is over. She wouldn't want him doing this, and it is so disrespectful of him. He's just selling her out hoping to make a dollar off of this and it is SAD.
Zero respect. Just keep sucking these celebrities dry of everything they are... Even after they pass...
Some Jewish parents are like this.
@@user-dl5hs2ez9p cancer arrived to the subsection
This guy is so narcissistic and creepy it’s off the charts.
Well. She's a celebrity. Her drug addiction is bound to reveal itself.
so you expected her to perform in an empty stadium or what on earth are you talking about??
Her voice was a Powerhouse RIH AMY🕊
He is a LIAR he only cared about her ££££ her coins im from North London same area as Amy he is a well known scam artist !!
It's why he is doing THIS INTERVIEW!!
One reason she was in pain was because her life was so exposed to the world!! And now he is even exploiting her life AFTER she's already gone!!
She would HATE that he is doing this!
This is EXPLOITING one's own daughter's pain FOR MONEY!
No better than a father pimping his child!
Sicko! Glad I had the sound off even for the first second. Poor Amy...
Well known scam artist? In what way?
Mitch, drop the narcissist ego. You flushed your daughter down the drain, quite happily. Ought to be disgusted with yourself. She desperately needed help. You denied that
I loved Amy Winehouse her voice and music was amazing. RIP
Although Mitch's actions frustrates me, I can't truly blame him. To get the full scope of Amy's problems you'd have to start with her parents. Janis has spoken about how she had a mother that was emotionally absent and she then went on to marry someone like that. She also was lack big time as a disciplinary. I'm almost positive Mitch went through something dysfunctional in his life that shaped his actions in adulthood, especially how he handled his affair just assuming Amy was over it. The walls he has up is sooo thick and he's gonna always have them because he's always going to be in mourning. He lost his child, period. Her parents simply did not have the capacity to help her. Emotionally absent Mother, emotionally neglectful father created an emotionally unstable child who ended up with an emotionally abusive man that got her hooked on heroin.
I agree with you but she said herself if my tell me to go I’ll go he obviously never made her because she said she would and that she don’t want to drink she just needed someone instead.
So true. Simple as that.
so dont blame the deprived parents then. blame the grandparents , great grandparents, or just nobody
The only thing he cared about when Amy was alive and still cares about
is money he saw that she needed help but he didn't care
Why did he gave up on her Daughter.... He should have done more..
Thank you Tam
You can’t have a reasonable conversation with a HIGH drug addict! I should know! The ONLY thing you can do is get them help ASAP!
And you can't force them
He didn’t show up to one of Amy’s most important shows at BBC. She genuinely hoped he was there and he let her down big time. Amy doesn’t deserve a dad like him.
It’s very easy to judge. Amy loved her Dad and she loved Blake. They were the two men in her life and both of them were bloody selfish buggers at times. I believe with hindsight they both have regrets and wish they hadn’t done certain things. A fitting solution would be if Mitch could make hi s peace with Blake and tell him if he got clean there would be a position as a counsellor at the Amy Foundation. I think Ms Winehouse would be so proud of both of them if that happened.
I know Blake was less than perfect but she did love him. Mitch had his faults too, yet Amy saw far beyond d them.
I just love the way strangers idolize people who died of drugs or suicide blaming everyone else but the willing taker of drugs. For your information you cant help a person who doesnt want to be helped. If you cant handle fame soberly dont pursue it.This woman chose her own life.
Man wants to stop riding off his dead daughters back now!!!!! 10 years to the day & again money grabbing. & His poor wife
Let the girl rest in peace
Its disgusting that he plays off his dead daughter & he really has no idea about what she was up to
Very interesting let’s hope friends and family or those who have addictions such as alcohol learn to listen and try and help them I know they hurt their loved ones but they don’t mean to they just need a lot of skilled help I wasn’t a huge fan of Amy WineHouse but I do feel for people who are in her situation She was incredibly talented she needed support so glad her fans stood by her RIP beautiful lady Xx
I adored Amy. I am in awe of the talent she had. She was in a league of her own.
I want that Amy poster in the back
EVERYONE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR OWN ACTIONS
I don’t know about Mitch of course he would take a jab at the film but I loved it I believed in the story too like you could tell it was authentic and just a real life depiction of Amy. 💯😑
Know what Mitch I hear - blah blah blah.....
She loves her dad and he know that
A once in a lifetime songstress to humanity. God bless her soul.
"She was clear of drugs three years before her death" but she was still DRINKING! what's wrong with him???
Parents only try to do their best. They have to deal with their own trauma issues….
He talks about Amy likes he’s talking about the issues he’s having erecting a shed in his garden. He’s devoid of emotion. He’s totally inept of any compassion.
She was Jewish like me I found her very beautiful sad loss her death was.
Funny isn’t? Now you become such a wise person about addictions? You were right there man, you didn’t do nothing to stop it... too late
He’s delusional if he thinks she wasn’t on drugs up to her death!!!
At the end she wasn’t on drugs. But she was supplementing it with alcohol
The claim was that she'd been off the drugs since 2008 and had been off the booze for nearly six weeks before she died. Whether that's true I don't know.
But everyone close to her at the time (and not just Mitch) said that she seemed to have really turned it around and was doing great. She was gaining weight, behaving normally again, seemed happy. Her death seems to have been accidental and not self-unaliving.
Her parents should see that she was drinking more and more and the Last concerts were to much for her . Did he close his eyes ? She hated it to be alone in the house . The mother should stay by her the Last night . The parents were blind and they should know she needed rehab again with the alcoholproblem . Ahe still missed blake . This concerts were Stress for her . She should have a long Rest and be watched but all thinking for money .
All the cab driver thought about was his life was over without Amy pushing her hard even when she was out os steam a true example of human waste who has to experience a very painful end that he will beg for death to end..
I've been addicted for 25years I'm 40now hate this life I'm sorry Mitch one wrong move sets ur life forever if only we knew that one time would be 25plus years if your lucky xx
What are you addicted to? I am as well you whould never know looking at me i work, gym 5x a week, etc was given to me after a surgety and that was it.
Your beautiful Love as well
She was THE VOICE of a lifetime .....She is now back at home leading the choir Divine.....
And Mr. Winehouse what an incredible Man .
This guy is managing his proud words to talk about his daughter now. This confidence not use for good way to protect his child.
2:23 she said no,no,no..
Rehab wasn't the answer for Amy I've seen many a people that have went to rehab and relapsed back into the high life I believe the answer is with Hashem and taking up a habit of prayer and contemplation like a monk to conquer the vice of drugs or alcohol.
Nah she just needed to get rid of the toxic people in her life. She was doing better when she got rid of Blake, unfortunately she didn't cut out Mitch.
To me it feels like he seems to down play her addictions like she was doing ok . Just the impression I get from all the interviews I have seen of him . Its like he never fully understood that she needed help . Just seems to be in denial
are you suggesting nobody had tried help this drug addict??
@@esperanzawanjiru2435 how did what I say imply that haha
No the family tried get her into detox places. Leave them alone. A person has to want to get clean. And he right she was ok clean sober for a year before she relapsed that nite in her room.
The worst example of a father figure instead of rehab he forces her to do another tour and album and I dont think much of her mother and brother either all now rolling in her music sales royalties and as for blake he was the worst mistake she ever made in her life coming off heroin addiction her alcohol problem excacerbated 10 fold they all have their part in killing her RIP Amy
Telling fact…don’t miss this: HE CAN TALK ABOUT HIS DEAD DAUGHTER WITHOUT EVEN SHEDDING A TEAR! See it? AND HE IS DEFENDING HIMSELF when discussing the untimely death of his child. See it?
As an outsider seeing Amy Winehouse prior to her death I wanted to take her in and protect her. How a father did not take that girl off the stage and protect her looks like a HORRIFIC example of a parent, in my opinion. Sorry!
I feel certain he loved her and she loved him. But!!!! I think this guy is a chump. A joke. His life seemed to be full of plenty of bad decisions. Just a shitty kind of guy. Totally lucky to pick up coin from his kid, that's for sure.
i'll read your book, and janis'
I think Tamron doesn’t understand the difficulties of Addiction. I don’t think her father should be blamed in anyway . Addiction is not a blame game it’s a serious condition that is very difficult to treat. I understand she Amy also had a serious mental health condition in addition to her addiction
Mitch clearly has a version of aspergers. It's brutal for the families of men with aspergers, they have an inability to face emotional ownership or accountability at any level. They literally live in a box in their own mind.
Mitch Winehouse
Good for pulling on peoples heartstrings
Couldn't he have chosen a more appropriate photo of his daughter for his kitchen? 🙄
Good grief.
The Amy Winehouse story is devastating, she could have been saved, intervention and detox did not happen the help came too late
Anyone here after watching Amy?
Seems like her father was her first fan
I saw u with her all you was worried was pic with fans .she was holiday .and you her step up and do pics ...your actuallyll
Your money grabbing.
He should be shame he never helped her 😭
She didn't give shit abt his daughter!!
she cut him off
Did she? When?
Sorry but I think that you didin't do everything to safe her!!!!! If it was my Child she would be alive!!! 100%!!!
Or Mitch, you could have tried to help your daughter, instead of exploiting her.
Oh look at him all fancy looking, posh and pimped out. Eating well I see, must be going good mr cab driver.
Despite Amy’s alcohol and drug situation she also dealt with failed support from her family.
This is just my opinion based on observation and I know im not the only one who feels this way.
I feel Mitch was so caught up in the fame of his daughter he neglected to put her emotional and physical well-being first.
It’s clear that he was willing to allow that pain and suffering on his daughter to make the headlines and generate the media attention and publicity he so loves.
Camera crew at St.Lucia ???
Amy was able to try and recover herself without all the media pressure and lack of family support there, she had friends who had her best interest at heart and Mitch took that from her.
Why did he think Amy was good to go do that “last show” where she totally failed to deliver?
Imagine being that passionate and reliving heartache every time you sing your songs while watching the crowd cheer and have a good time at your brokenness.
How did this make her feel?
That’s why she drank so much, she didn’t want to feel that pain.
She needed better support and some time out to get herself together again but she wasn’t allowed that, “we” wanted to see her fall. At least people are are talking about it.
I hope those responsible, - those who pretend to care - lay awake at night…
RIP Dear Amy.
Hes now making a hologram show with her.....
Donate all your book money to drug rehab
How Much did he charge for this interview? He only cares about that.
How much does the b/f deal with this? Sad just the same...
