Troubled singer Amy Winehouse was found dead in her London apartment on Saturday, according to the UK Press Association. The Grammy Award winner was only 27.

Winehouse, who was best known for her hit single “Rehab,” had a history battling drugs and alcohol, which seemed never-ending. She recently left a British rehabilitation program that a representative said “was intended to prepare her for scheduled European concerts.” She ended up canceling the tour after a performance in Belgrade, Serbia, where she barely made it through some of her songs while staggering across the stage.

Her troubles also spread to her two-year marriage to Blake Fielder-Civil. The two were in the public eye for most of their marriage, which appeared to consist of drugs, alcohol and arrests. The couple divorced in 2009.

The singer’s parents went public with their efforts to help their struggling daughter in 2009, telling the London Telegraph that Winehouse was on the road to recovery:

“A gradual recovery, which is good,” Winehouse’s father Mitch told the Telegraph. “With slight backward steps – not drug backward steps, more drink backward steps if you follow my drift. I think that will be the pattern of recovery.”

This is all very sad. Rest in peace, Amy. And our well-wishes to your family.
