Reg Traviss is to appear in court in July

The boyfriend of late singer Amy Winehouse is set to be charged with rape, the Crown Prosecution Service said Thursday.

Traviss, a 35-year-old film director, was dating Winehouse when the singer died at her home in London last July.

He was arrested in April over the allegation of rape reported in January.

Rebecca Mundy, lawyer in the CPS London Rape and Serious Sexual Offences Unit, said in a statement: "I have authorised the Metropolitan Police to charge Reginald Traviss with two counts of rape.

"The alleged offences took place between 29 December 2011 and 1 January 2012."

Traviss is set to appear at magistrates' court on July 17.
