Blake Fielder-Civil, the husband of Amy Winehouse, reportedly offered an ex-bouncer money to organise an attack Pete Doherty.

Fielder-Civil apparently wanted Doherty “smashed to pieces” following conflicting newspaper reports about the singer's relationship with his wife.

Richard Lyttle, 39, claims he was approached by Fielder-Civil when the pair were inside Pentonville prison.

“We were sitting in my cell and he said, ‘If you get Doherty for me I’ll give you £20,000',” he told the Sun newspaper.

“He kept saying, ‘Can you arrange it?’ and telling me to get some guys to his house. He knew the address. He said, ‘Amy’s obviously sleeping with him.’

“He knew I used to be a doorman and knew some tough people. He said he wanted him smashed to pieces.”

Although the paper claims that Lyttle has since been released, Fielder-Civil is awaiting sentence after he pleaded guilty to assaulting a man and then attempting to cover the incident up.

Fielder-Civil faces a maximum of five years in prison over the assault charge.
