George Michael can now be laid to rest after it has been revealed the iconic singer died of natural causes.
The 53-year-old star was found dead at his home in Goring-on-Thames by Australian partner Fadi Fawaz, 43, on Christmas Day having suffered heart and kidney failure.
“As there is a confirmed natural cause of death, being dilated cardiomyopathy with myocarditis and fatty liver, the investigation is being discontinued and there is no need for an inquest or any further inquiries,” revealed Oxfordshire’s senior coroner Darren Salter.
“No further updates will be provided and the family requests the media and public respect their privacy.”
Michael’s friends and family endured an agonizing wait for the official cause of death, as speculation mounted that drugs had been involved.
Following the coronor’s report, Fawaz tweeted “F**k you” along with a picture of the pair captioned, “The Truth is out…”.
The Australian hair stylist, who was Michael’s lover for a number of years, also added, “All the nasty comments, press and 999 were very cruel and unnecessary whatsoever, Now I hope to receive some real LOVE x”.
A public memorial for the singer is expected to take place later this month as well as a private funeral for close family and friends.
