George Michael’s boyfriend has lashed out after a coroner confirmed the 53-year-old died of natural causes.
Authorities have confirmed the Wham! musician died from a disease of the heart and a fatty liver, quashing the need for police to investigate his death any further.
Michael’s boyfriend Fadi Fawaz, who found him dead inside his home in the English town of Goring-on-Thames on Christmas Day, took to Twitter after hearing the news.
Listen: The news will likely help the singer’s family in their grieving process. The Well speaks about the seven stages.
Appearing to be addressing those fans who speculated about the pop icon’s death and their relationship, the Australian-born man wrote, “F*** YOU” and “The Truth is out”.
Fawaz referenced the hate he had received from fans, as well as the leaking of his call to emergency services after discovering Michael had died.
In the wake of Michael’s death, Tweets from Fawaz’s account suggested he had taken his own life, but the 43-year-old insists he was hacked and did not post them.
The announcement means that Michael’s body will finally be returned to his family and the late singer will be laid to rest at a funeral.
It is unlikely a full toxicology report will ever be released to the public with only his family likely to see it.
