Did George Michael want to end it all?
However, the Sun has published an email written by his partner which could blow this theory out of the water. According to Fadi Fawaz, the singer frequently had dark thoughts and may have been capable of killing himself.
'It took five attempts. I’m sick and tired of people asking me what happened on Christmas Day. Well let me tell you, George died on his mother’s birthday, so that might answer a few questions. Not to mention it took five attempts to manage to end his life. I think it’s important for the story,' said George Michael’s lover in an email, however this report has yet to be confirmed.
Fadi Fawaz apparently tried to keep quiet about these new revelations at the time of his partner’s death, as his depression had not yet been addressed.
