Sharing the news of the release on Twitter, she wrote: “I’m so excited to share with you all that for the last few months I have been working on an incredibly special and personal documentary showing the loving and caring side to the Amy I knew so well…”

Earlier this week Dionne revealed: “I can’t tell you now just how therapeutic this journey has been for me.

“Finally, I can move forward into the next chapter of my career knowing that I have dealt with emotions that have been buried for years.

“I hope this documentary shows Amy as more than just a person struggling with addiction and instead showcases the amazing person my godmother was.”

Amy died in July 2011 but was saved from death two years before her tragic passing thanks to Sheridan Smith.

The Rehab singer was just 27 when she was found dead in her London flat with coroners recording alcohol poisoning as the cause of death.

Speaking his new book, My Amy her close friend Tyler James wrote: “I remember the morning Amy nearly died as though it was yesterday.

“We’d had a great evening. I had gone up to bed but, at about 6am, Sheridan came into my room, saying, ‘Come down, there’s something wrong with Amy’.”

In the kitchen they found the troubled singer in a ‘zombie-like’ state drying dishes with a tea-towel.
