Amy Winehouse has reportedly been taken to hospital for the third time in as many months.

According to The Sun, the singer was admitted after she fell ill at her St Lucia villa on Friday following a drinking session, but was discharged later that night.

Winehouse may now postpone her planned concert at the Shepherd's Bush Empire in London on May 31, it has been claimed.

A source said: "Amy's gig might as well be cancelled now. She's not going to make it. It's not worth her while even if she does make it, it will be a shambles.

"She is not ready for it and she proved it at the festival."

Last month, Winehouse's father Mitch reportedly told filmmaker Daphne Barak that his daughter may have swapped her dependence on hard drugs for alcohol.
