Mitch Winehouse Loses Amy's Item Case

0:00On April 20th, Mitch Winehouse lost the high court case against two of Amy Winehouse's close friends over dozens of her personal items sold at auctions in the United States. He accused Naomi Perry and Catriona Gourlay of hiding the sales and profiting off them, saying legal action was his only way to get straight answers. Lawyers for Mitch argued the women deliberately kept the deal secret, but the judge shut that down quick. Deputy high court judge Sarah Clark ruled he could have dug up the info himself with some basic effort and she called him out as unreliable and too. Controlling? Amy was known for gifting clothes and stuff to friends like these two because she hated repeating outfits in public and had way more gear than she needed. The friends said the items were either gifts from her or already theirs, no funny business. The judge also noted Mitch didn't even verify his own claims until right before trial, making his case weak from the jump. Perry shared that she stood by Amy as a friend and creative partner, focused now on honoring her legacy.
