Amy's 'Blake incarcerated' out of jail

LONDON, Nov. 5 (UPI) -- Amy Winehouse's husband, the man she has been publicly referring to as her "Blake incarcerated," has been released from a U.K. jail, a source told People.com.

Blake Fielder-Civil left Edmunds Hill Prison in Suffolk Wednesday and headed directly to rehab, in keeping with the terms of his early release from his 27-month prison sentence, a source told People.com.

The 26-year-old musician pleaded guilty in June to charges of assault and perverting the course of justice. He admitted he assaulted pub manager James King in a 2006 bar brawl, then tried to pay King $400,000 not to testify against him.

By the time Fielder-Civil was sentenced, he had already been in prison for about nine months.

People.com said Winehouse, a singer who has long battled addictions to drugs and alcohol, did not pick up Fielder-Civil when he was released, instead choosing to stay at her London flat. This week, she left a clinic where she had undergone treatment for a chest infection.

The entertainment news Web site said Winehouse's publicist declined to comment for its report.
