Amy Winehouse is reportedly "drinking a bottle of vodka a day".

The 'Rehab' singer is said to be distraught her love interest Joshua Bowman is refusing to return her calls after flying back to England from St. Lucia, where she is currently on an extended holiday and has taken to drinking heavily to block out her unhappiness.

The singer's friend Sam Shaker revealed: "Amy was after Josh in a big way and he didn't want to know. Josh is just a 21-year-old kid but Amy is older and it seems he didn't want anything too serious.

"Now Amy is in a bad way. She's stopped the drugs, but is drinking up to a bottle of vodka a day."

The 25-year-old star - who has also been romantically linked to a tennis instructor at her hotel - is also said to be furious that husband Blake Fielder-Civil has filed for divorce over her holiday antics and is determined not to share her fortune with him.

Sam added: "Amy is angry and refusing to hand over £5 million to Blake. She knows he is after her money and says she is going to fight him. He admitted introducing her to drugs, so why should he get half her money?"
