Troubled British singer Amy Winehouse left her woes behind - by jetting off to the Caribbean for a last-minute winter break. Accompanied by pals, Winehouse shelled out nearly $12,000 for First Class flights from London to Barbados, where she landed last night.
Sources close to the 'Rehab' star told Britain's Daily Mail newspaper that she booked the trip only after being informed that her 25-year-old-husband, who is on remand in London's Pentonville prison for alleged assault and conspiracy to pervert the course of justice, stood no chance of being let out before his next hearing on January 18.
"Amy has been desperate to escape England and forget about her troubles for the past couple of months," said a friend.
"But she didn't want Blake to feel any more alone or abandoned than he already does so she's waited as long as possible before booking anywhere.
"Blake has given her his full blessing as he knows how stressed and out of sorts she has been of late.
"The plan is for Amy to have a sunshine break, enjoy a few cocktails - and stay away from drugs.
"She has already made a few new year's resolutions and hopes the trip will become a turning point in her life.
"Amy wants 2008 to be a year of consolidation and, more than anything, for it to be trauma-free.
"She's convinced that Blake will be cleared of all charges and is desperate for the couple to enjoy some regular marital stability."
