Boyzone's Stephen Gately Dies
2009-10-10 by Dave Donnelly STAFF | 38 Replies | 2156 Views

Boyzone singer Stephen Gately has been found dead at the age of 33.

Gately had been on holiday in Majorca, of the coast off Spain, when has found dead in his rented apartment.

Manager Louis Walsh said: "We're all absolutely devastated. I'm in complete shock. I was only with him on Monday at an awards ceremony. We don't know much about what's happened yet.

"I only heard after The X Factor and we will rally around each other this week. He was a great man."


The four remaining members of the reformed boyband will fly to Majorca tomorrow.

Shane Lynch said: "Me and the boys are flying out in the morning. We just need to get over to where he's passed and work out what we need to do."

Gately leaves behind husband Andrew Cowles, whom he married in 2006.
