Amy Winehouse is hooked on a new drug: love

Jazz diva says tying the knot has made her happier and healthier

Amy Winehouse is back in the studio and feeling better than ever.

And the jazz diva, who turned 24 last week, puts it all down to her relationship with hubby Blake Fielder-Civil, 25.

‘I am so happy. I am ecstatic. I am elated,' the star insists.

‘We are just married and we don’t need anybody else. We are so much in love.’

Amy – who’s up for an incredible four MOBO awards on Wednesday – also says tales of her raucous lifestyle are being blown out of all proportion.

‘I’m sorted,' she tells the Daily Mirror.

‘A lot of fuss has been made about nothing. There’s nothing wrong with me. In fact, I feel better than I’ve ever felt before.’

Amy is currently writing songs for her hotly-awaited new album and busy making plans to go back on the road with her band.

She’s also gained a stone in weight since her very brief spell in rehab.

‘I didn’t enjoy it and don’t want to go back,’ says Amy.

‘I missed my friends and my parents. I have been doing better now and that’s all because of my friends.’
