Stephen Gately dies on holiday
October 11th, 2009
Stephen Gately from boyband Boyzone died on Saturday. Police have said there were no signs of suspicious circumstances.
The 33-year-old singer was on holiday in Majorca with his partner and reportedly died in his sleep after a night spent in local bars.
Boyzone were one of the most popular boybands on the 90s. Gately came out as gay in 1999, and married his partner Andrew Cowles in a civil partnership ceremony in 2006.
Boyzone manager Louis Walsh pulled out of Sunday’s X Factor TV show in order to travel to Majorca with the remaining four members of the band.

There have been so many sad/tragic stories in the news lately. The reports on Gately’s passing seem pretty vague in general, but there are (of course) a lot of rumors about it floating around
