Devoted Dad: Mitch tried tirelessly to help Amy during her addiction battle (pictured 2008)

The singer-songwriter had a history of alcohol and drug abuse. She had been in and out of rehab and struggled with alcohol withdrawal and anxiety.

Amy, who is buried with her grandmother Cynthia Levy, is said to have undergone nine interventions led by her parents throughout her boozy lifestyle.

Mitch battled to get his beloved daughter to abandon the dangerous drug-fueled life which was killing her, even as she enjoyed extraordinary success.

When his efforts ended in heartbreaking failure with her death, Mitch and second wife Jane established, with Amy’s mother Janis, the Amy Winehouse Foundation in the hope of inspiring young people to spare themselves from a similar path.

Loving touch: Amy is buried with her grandmother Cynthia Levy who died in 2006

Amy’s 2006 album Back To Black made her an international star and won five Grammys, including record of the year and song of the year for Rehab.

Last year, a biopic based on her life, played by Marisa Abela, was released.

The Back To Black biopic sparked outrage from pals, with musician Neon Hitch, branding the film ‘ridiculous’ and ‘tasteless’, saying: ‘Can you please all let Amy rest?’

Deep in thought: Mitch opted for a pale-blue shirt and jeans for the somber occasion

Friends of the singer were devastated that Mitch had given his permission for the flat in Camden to be used to recreate one of his daughter’s darkest moments, which took place in August 2008.

It followed a reported 36-hour marathon drug-taking session, which ended with her checking in to the $14,000-a-week Causeway Retreat rehabilitation center in Essex.

One told The Mail On Sunday: ‘The fact that Amy’s father has said OK to a scene where she had an overdose in the flat she lived in is disgusting.

‘His behavior is shocking. He didn’t know what went on or what she was like with us all during those years.

‘Amy would really hate that they’re focusing on all the dark stuff that she went through.’

Amy lived in the property following the release of her Back To Black album and friends say that she enjoyed happy times there.

One pal said: ‘There was always music and laughter. That’s who Amy was. She was so loving and was so fun to be around.’

Amy lived at the apartment until 2010, when she bought a four-storey house nearby, it was later confirmed she died of alcohol poisoning.

She allowed a friend to live at the home after she moved out, but after she died, her father took control of it.
