Troubled British star Amy Winehouse is convinced her husband Blake Fielder-Civil will walk free from jail later this month.

Fielder-Civil is currently awaiting sentence in London's Pentonville Prison after pleading guilty to perverting the course of justice and causing grievous bodily harm (Gbh) in relation to an attack on a pub landlord James King in June 2006.

The 25-year-old is expected to be sentenced on 21 July. He faces a maximum of five years behind bars for the Gbh conviction, while perverting justice charges carry a maximum life sentence - although the judge is unlikely to impose such a severe penalty.

And Winehouse is sure her husband will receive the minimum possible sentence for his crimes and will walk free, having already served seven months on remand.

She says, "Blake's the best thing that has ever happened to me. I live for visits, even when they're behind glass. My Blake will be out in 11 days."

"That's all I care about. He's my best friend, he's everything to me."
