editIn 2009 she paid for the medical tests for a man called Julian Jean DeBaptiste in St Lucia. "She saved my life the Hernia was killing me, it was the most terrible pain from the tip of my toes right up to my chest" he told the Daily Mirror, "I knew I had something seriously wrong with me, but I couldn't make enough money. Amy walked up to me one day on the beach . She could tell something was wrong and she asked me how I was. I told her I had been feeling a lot of pain down there. The next thing I know her bodyguard gave me the money to go and see a doctor."
"I had the surgery on July 1 2009... it cost a fortune and Amy paid for the whole thing. I tried to thank her after but she just hugged me and said not say anything. Her generosity gave me my life back"
