Amy Winehouse's Tragic Death: Bryan Adams Tried To Save Her But Failed

Amy Winehouse left her pals and fans heartbroken after her tragic death, including Bryan Adams.

On July 23, 2011, Winehouse was pronounced dead by emergency responders who believed she passed away hours before she was found at around 3:35 p.m. on that day. Coroner Suzanne Greenaway ruled she died from alcohol toxicity, adding that her blood alcohol level at the time of her death was more than five times the legal limit.

Amy Winehouse Could Have Been Saved

In his interview with The Sunday Times, Adams opened up about his friendship with Winehouse and shared how she could have been saved from the alcohol poisoning she suffered from.

"Sure, I tried to help her, but, you know, it's got to come from within," he said. "I really don't know what happened with Amy and it is so sad because she was so, so talented and I so admired her individuality massively. But did I make a difference? I don't know."

Adams revealed they met after he photographed her in 2007, and they instantly became friends at that time. He also invited her to spend the holidays with his family.

His comments came after Winehouse's parents, Mitch and Janis Winehouse, released excerpts of her journal to mark her what would have been 40th birthday. The then-never-before-seen texts included the singer speaking about finding Mr. Right.

"Sometimes I think, I wonder if there's someone, some guy out there who's as crazy as me? A nice guy with dark hair who wears glasses to read and is a real Indie kid? Piercings optional, Scottish or Irish accent preferably!" she wrote.

Previously, Winehouse's ex-husband was accused of having something to do with her death years after her passing. Speaking with Good Morning Britain, Blake Fielder-Civil addressed the rumors while also expressing how he tried not to carry the burden of her death.

He soon realized he needed to stop carrying the cross, though he admitted to making huge mistakes that made people hold him accountable.

According to Fielder-Civil, he introduced Winehouse to heroin, and it led people to blame him for enabling her addiction.

He shared a similar statement in a 2018 interview, noting that there were rumors that their drug use was problematic.

"The drug thing is something that's been attributed to me for years. The fact is that me and Amy only used drugs together maybe six months of our marriage," he continued. "That was it. And before that, Amy didn't use drugs. She smoked cannabis, [and] I did heroin maybe four or five times."
