Haven't got a link, not sure which paper broke the story but BBC saying Stephen Gateley found dead in the early hours on hol in Majorca. Anyone on the island up to speed on it?

Google news

Here's the story http://http://uk.news.yahoo.com/5/20...n-45dbed5.html

Another link, the other didn't work http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz...es-age-33.html

It's being reported in The Sun as being the result of a drinking binge.

it would be, wouldn't it?


still sad, even if it's true

Rumour has it he and his partner went out on Friday night and returned home with a person (male) they met that night.

He was found face down on the living room sofa at around 11am.

Until the tox report after tommorrow we can only guess, but the papers are usually good at paying insiders to talk.

My guess its another famous artist with too much cash and an "I can do whatever I like attitude".

I feel sorry for the family.

Exactly Chulo - and all respects to them for standing up and saying they are not happy with he just died after a night on the town
I did wonder if he'd had a fit or was sick - whichever way he died it is a great shame and my thoughts are with all his family and friends

RIP Stephen Gately

Damn, no gossip then.

I guess a health guy found dead on a sofa is completely normal.

Its in the press, so it must be true.

well, it says it's the postmortem results & pulmonary oedema

one known cause of pulmonary oedema is congestive heart failure


which does cause death in 'healthy' young people - they rarely know they've got it & it's only discovered at postmortem

I guest its the little sceptic in me.

I`m sure I watched Elvis in drag once performing in Benirdorm.

now THAT I believe
