Boyzone star Stephen Gately passed away while vacationing in Majorca. The the cause of his death is unclear but according to News Of The World , a close friend revealed that “It looks like he went out for a few drinks, then got back, fell asleep and never woke up”.
Boyzone manager Louis Walsh said: “We’re all absolutely devastated. I only heard after The X Factor and we will rally around each other this week. He was a great man”.
Stephen, 33, was one fifth of irish sensation Boyzone. I grew up listening to them and It’s a terrible lost. My thoughts are with his family, specially his partner Andrew Cowles.
Rest in peace, Stephen.
Update: According to The Mirror, Stephen died in his sleep when he choked on his vomit after drinking at a gay club until 6am. He was found kneeling against the sofa with his face buried in a pillow, almost in a praying position.
Lawyer Gerald Kean explained “There’s no foul play involved. There is nothing untoward. It’s not drugs, it’s not suicide, it’s not murder, it’s not a fight”.
