Amy Winehouse‘s father says he believes the singer died after suffering a seizure triggered by her detox.
Mitch Winehouse offered the theory while taping an interview with Anderson Cooper, which will air during Monday’s premiere of “Anderson.”
“Everything Amy did, she did to excess,” says Winehouse. “She drank to excess and did detox to excess.”
According to her father, Winehouse’s system contained traces of Librium, a prescription drug used to combat anxiety and withdrawal symptoms.
He believes that her body might have been reacting to alcohol detoxification, including the pharmaceuticals, and “there was nobody there to rescue her.”
Mitch Winehouse says Amy’s “periods of abstinence were becoming longer, and the periods of drinking were becoming shorter,” with her recovery “heading in the right direction” before her death.
On July 23, Winehouse was found dead in her apartment at the age of 27.
A full inquest into her death will begin next month.
