Winehouse leaves hospital

Singer Amy Winehouse was discharged from hospital yesterday after receiving emergency treatment for a reaction to “medication”.

A spokeswoman for University College Hospital, where the Rehab star spent the night, said she was ushered out via a private exit shortly after 9.45am.

She was said to be in good spirits after a “comfortable night”.

An ambulance was called to the 24-year-old’s house in Camden, north London, on Monday evening after she suffered the reaction to medication, according to her spokesman, Chris Goodman.

Winehouse’s father, Mitch, asked reporters and photographers to leave the family alone.

However, when asked how his daughter’s condition was, he held up a bag of KFC and replied: “This is how serious it is.”

The singer has publicly battled health problems recently, with the imprisonment of her husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, causing obvious stress.

Winehouse returned home where she was “resting” with her father and manager, Goodman said.

“She had a bit of a scare yesterday because of a reaction to treatment. She was kept in overnight purely for observation.”
