Amy Winehouse’s jailbird husband has warned the troubled-singer that she’ll end up dead if she continues smoking crack.

Blake Fielder-Civil, who is currently behind bars in London's Pentonville Prison for attempting to pervert the course of justice, is relieved that the Rehab singer is seeking treatment for her drug addiction because he squirmed at the idea of hearing about her death whilst behind bars.

“[I told her], 'Quit smoking crack or you'll be dead in three months,” Fielder-Civil told a British newspaper via mother Georgette. “I'm so relieved she has finally taken my advice after I begged her to go into rehab.

"I even threatened her with divorce because I thought it would be the only thing to make her see sense.

"My parents have both pleaded with me to divorce Amy and I told her so before she finally agreed to go in for treatment... But I'd prefer to have a short life with Amy than a long life without her.

"I want Amy to grab this opportunity in rehab so we can have a marriage and future together. Because the way she's going I really fear I will come out of prison to no wife.

"I dread my cell door being opened and the chaplain informing me, 'Amy's dead.' I have that nightmare three or four times a week."

Winehouse checked into a London treatment facility after a British tabloid leaked video footage of the singer allegedly taking drugs.

The Back to Black star was summoned to a two-hour emergency meeting with her record label, Universal, before agreeing to seek treatment for drug abuse.
