Amy Winehouse's husband has been ambushed in prison. Blake Fielder-Civil, the incarcerated other half of the Grammy Award-winning artist, had reportedly been beaten by fellow inmates who believed he was carrying heroin.

An insider tells News Of The World, "Blake's been running scared ever since he set foot inside Pentonville - an now his luck has run out. He got ambushed by a few blokes who thought he had heroin on him."

"He's been put in solitary three times already for failing drug tests so they figured it was a fair bet he'd be carrying some - although he wasn't."

The source adds that the 25-year-old husband was lucky to have emerged from the incident with just a bruised eye. "Because Blake is such a high-profile inmate, he's a natural target on the landings. There have been lots of threats and for a long time he just kept himself confined to his cell.

"He'll be staying there a lot more now."

Fielder-Civil was jailed in November for charges of perverting the course of justice and assault.
