STEPHEN GATELY

I was shocked when watched in News Program that a member of former
boyband BOYZONE is found dead in Majorca, Spain. He is Stephen Gately.
Stephen was one of two lead singers in Boyzone and the other one is
Ronan Keating. Boyzone was one famous pop group I've ever know. After
years of successful, Boyzone decided to split in 2000.
Stephen's in personal life, he is a gay. Stated on Wiki that on 16
June 1999, The Sun newspaper covered its front page with what it
described as a "World Exclusive" and the headline, "Boyzone Stephen:
I'm gay and I'm in love". At the age of 23, Gately sold his story to
the newspaper because he feared a former member of Boyzone's security
was about to sell the story.
The Sun had two further pages on the story as well as an editorial.
Gately also revealed that in 1998 he had started a relationship with
the then 27 year-old Eloy de Jong, who had been in the Dutch boy band
Caught in the Act. They had first met in 1995.
Updated news about the cause of Stephen dead where a post-mortem and
toxicology tests took place on 13 October and this examination showed
that Gately died of natural causes due to pulmonary oedema.
On 16 October, his body will be brought from Majorca to Dublin where
his funeral will take place at the Church of St Laurence O'Toole the
following day.
Rest In Peace - Stephen Gately
