Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace was left heartbroken after the death of her best friend, Femi. The Big Brother star, 45, shared the tragic news on Thursday with an Instagram series.
It’s been a difficult few weeks for Aisleyne, who has been sorting through her grief for her late friend Amy Winehouse in the wake of the biopic Back To Black.
The film follows the life of the singer, who tragically died of alcohol poisoning at just 27 years old in 2011, and includes some of her darkest moments.
Aisleyne, who attended the film’s UK premiere, said she finds it difficult to accept the idea of these moments being dramatized for entertainment.
She told Closer magazine: “I don’t see why they need to go into so much detail about her struggles. I know she’s a global legend, an icon, and people are intrigued by her life, but she was so much more than that. ”.
The reality star, who described Amy as a “pure, fun human being,” admitted that she “doesn’t know why Amy’s dad, Mitch, has been supporting the movie.”
“I really hope the movie gives Mitch some comfort. When I found out the project had his backing, I assumed it was going to be a really positive ode to Amy and her legacy, but now I don’t know,” she shared.
‘If it’s not a fitting tribute to her, I don’t know why I would support it. Maybe it’s cathartic for him. Writing my biography felt cathartic to me, so maybe it’s that way for him. But, for me, knowing that the film describes some of his darkest moments brings up a lot of emotions in me.”
Mitch allegedly banned Aisleyne from attending Amy’s funeral apparently because she partied with Amy in the weeks before her death.
She later tweeted that Amy had “never mentioned” Aisleyne. Writing: ‘Aisleyne Hogan? Amy’s friend? Amy never mentioned her to me.
She shared a series of sweet images while admitting she was writing through tears.
Aisleyne also suffered great heartbreak when her friend Nikki Grahame died.
The couple appeared on Big Brother in the seventh series in 2006 and had several fights during their stay in the house..
However, Aisleyne later became close friends with Nikki until her tragic death.
Nikki died on April 10, 2021, one day after she was discharged from Dorset County Hospital in Dorchester after a three-week stay to treat her for anorexia.
She had struggled with anorexia for much of her life and was first admitted to a psychiatric hospital at age 12.
