Following the funeral, Mitch Winehouse released a lengthy statement in which he declares Amy “was the happiest she has been for years.” He says she hadn’t taken a drink in three weeks and added, “Knowing she wasn’t depressed, knowing she passed away, knowing she passed away happy, it makes us all feel better.” [CNN]
