Amy Winehouse has been admitted to a drug rehabilitation facility, it has been confirmed.

The singer sought help at an undisclosed location following months of well documented problems battling substance abuse.

Winehouse, 24, sought help after her father, Mitch, admitted her family have looked into getting her sectioned under the Mental Health Act.

“Amy decided to enter the facility today after talks with her record label, management, family and doctors,” Universal Music Group said in a statement.

“She has come to understand that she requires specialist treatment to continue her ongoing recovery from drug addiction,” the statement said.
