Stephen Gately's Death Remains A Mystery
Filed under: Music Minute > R.I.P.
The sudden, tragic death of Boyzone's Stephen Gately has left the public wondering what exactly happened to Gately while vacationing on the Spanish island of Mallorca.
Family friend Gerald Kean has assured the media that there was "no foul play" involved with Gately's death and his passing was due to natural causes.
Says Kean:
It's just a tragic accident is what we've been told, and we're happy that that is correct information. There is nothing untoward. It's not drugs, we don't believe. It's not suicide. It's not murder. It's not a fight. That's what we've been told.
Gately was vacationing in Mallorca with his partner of two years, Andrew Cowles, at the time of his death, but according to a statement released by Boyzone, they "don't have too many details" other than he died from natural causes.
An autopsy is expected to be performed on Tuesday, which hopefully will answer many of the questions swirling around Gately's passing.

According to swedish magazines he died of his own vommits. (??)
That is horrible! RIP
I heard he had just watched the Mr. Hands video & decided to recruit a local bull to make a sequal.
Notice that they don't it was NOT from drinking, which is what is actually being reported…
Can't believe we lost one of our boys… RIP Stephen…
You will be in our hearts forever… xxx
Re: TheSwede – Yeah, I heard the same. He drank too much and choked on his vomit. That was released this morning Mario…you've dropped the ball
Re: Karma_Chameleon – Hhmm.. Yeah!! //Åsa
The gay lifestyle is the only one that actually idolizes drinking. It's fucking pathetic. Looks like this guy (whoever he is) paid the price for it.
Re: Brainbug – if you had known anything about him you would know that he was one of the nice members of Boyzone…yes a boy band from the 90's. You should google him and see how loved he was by his fans.
He was on holiday and was having fun like was all do. It has nothing to him being gay or whatever.
Miss you Stephen RIP. Boyzone will never be the same agin.
Get your facts striaght. Stephen had been with his partner Andrew since 2003 and they got married in 2006.
The solicitor is Gerald KEANE not Gerald Kean!!!!
Why is this a mystery? You just got done writting in another article on this same web page that he died from over assess drinking and that he choked on his own vommit?
