Amy Winehouse is reportedly angry at her husband, the previously incarcerated Blake Fielder-Civil, because he wanted her to pay his rehab bills, which are going to cost 30,000 British pounds (about $56,000 Canadian).

Fielder-Civil was released from prison on Wednesday after serving 12 months of a 27-month sentence for attempting to pervert the course of justice. As part of his release agreement, Fielder-Civil, who is said to have introduced Winehouse to hard drugs, must go to rehab for seven weeks and get clean.

"Blake thought he would click his fingers and she'd stump up the 30 grand. But so far she has refused," a source told the U.K.'s The Sun newspaper. "He's not happy."

That source also told The Sun that the couple's marriage is close to breaking up.

Meanwhile, Winehouse's father, Mitch Winehouse, told The Sun that his daughter did not know her husband was being released from jail, and was very mad when she found out through reporters that he was getting out. Winehouse hit three photographers who had staked out her London, England home earlier this week and reportedly only calmed down when her father came to her house and took her back to his home.

Mitch Winehouse does not have a very good opinion of Fielder-Civil (and Fielder-Civil's parents similarly dislike Winehouse). He told The Sun that he hopes Winehouse forgets her husband, who he doubts she cares about, since they have not seen each other in some time. He told the tabloid that Winehouse did not visit Fielder-Civil after he was moved from a London prison to another further north.

"The best thing that could possibly happen is for them to go their own separate ways," he said.
