Towards the end of April 2008 there was a series of incidents in pubs when Amy got into arguments and ended up hitting someone. I was away in Tenerife with Jane when she called to tell me she had been in a pub in Camden Town playing pool and an argument had broken out between her and a man about who was using the table next. Apparently the man had threatened her and Amy slapped him. He had reported the matter to the police. On another occasion, this time in the Dublin Castle, another Camden pub, a man had pinched Amy’s bottom and she’d hit him. Quite bloody right, I thought. But it was the last thing we needed as the police were still interested in Amy over the Sun’s crack-cocaine video.
I told her to go back to Henley and get on with her work, but she resisted: there had been problems with Mark Ronson. I’m not blaming Mark for any of this because dealing with Amy on drugs was never easy. She claimed she already had three songs, words and music that she thought would be suitable for the movie but, of course, that wasn’t her brief. Her brief was to write the words and Mark the music. Mark had listened to the songs and didn’t think they were right.
‘So what?’ I said. ‘You’ve had an artistic difference. Get back to Henley and sort it out with Mark before it’s too late.’
‘All right, I’ll go,’ she told me.
The next day the papers were full of stories about Amy’s fight. Apparently there had been more than one violent incident, and Amy had also walked into a lamp-post. From the way she looked in the photographs, she had either walked into a lamp-post or somebody had hit her very hard indeed. Another story said that she had been thrown out of a club for allegedly taking drugs. I got on the first plane I could and flew home, leaving Jane in Tenerife.
When I got back, Amy was driving around with Geoff and being followed by paps. Meanwhile, the newspapers were full of stories about Amy and Blake’s supposed split – I’d received a call from a journalist at the Sun about it a few days earlier. Blake had had a bail hearing but Amy couldn’t go as she’d had to see the police over assault charges. Apparently a girl had been in court and had kept blowing Blake kisses. For all I knew she might have been working for a newspaper and doing that to fuel the story of the split.
When it came time for Amy’s interview with police about the assault, she arrived two hours late at Holborn Police Station, which didn’t go down well. As if that wasn’t bad enough, she was not sober. The police deemed her unfit to answer questions and kept her at the police station overnight. They didn’t put her in a cell. In fact they bought her chocolates and soft drinks and were very nice to her.
