Weeks after it was claimed Amy Winehouse’s ex Blake Fielder-Civil was making a claim on her estate, he’s now been trying to flog ‘unseen’ images of the late singer, according to reports.

The 37-year-old, who is apparently planning to pen an autobiography about his time married to the legendary singer, was caught trying to offload images of his ex wife ‘for a fee’.

According to The Sun, Blake told the publication: ‘I want a fee . . . I have lots of unseen photos of Amy and I.’

He also reportedly mentioned in regards to Amy’s father Mitch: ‘I’ll tell everything that went on and talk about the family, esp Mitch.’

A source told the publication in light of the messages there is fear among the family he’ll release notebooks containing unreleased lyrics from Amy, who died aged 27 in 2011.

‘Blake has stooped to a new low by offering to sell pictures of Amy at this time,’ the source said.

‘It is the last thing the family need or want and could potentially be very hurtful.

‘They have heard about the book and Blake’s claims that there is much more new material yet to come out which he apparently hopes to reveal.

‘Amy’s family think he is a scumbag and an utter hypocrite, as he has basically accused them of cashing in on her legacy in the past.’

It comes after claims Blake was trying to make a move for Amy’s estate.

Amy and Blake were married for two years after secretly tying the knot in 2007, but she reportedly gave him a £250,000 settlement following their divorce in 2009.

It was alleged last month he was making a £1 million claim from her estate, eight years after the singer tragically died.

According to a previous report in The Sun, Blake was trying to demand a monthly allowance and lump sum from the estate, while her family say he ‘deserves nothing’.

A source close to the family told the paper: ‘This is someone who spent a lot of Amy’s money during their time together.

‘He also spent a lot of their marriage in prison, bringing nothing but pain to everyone. To give him another penny would be too much.

‘To say that it would be inappropriate for him to benefit from her estate would be an understatement.’

Blake has previously admitted on the Jeremy Kyle Show that he was the person who introduced Amy to heroin, saying he shared some of his supply with her in a hotel room in East London.
