Stephen Gately, of the 90's Irish boy band Boyzone, has died while on vacation in Spain with his partner.

A statement on the band's website says, "We are truly sorry to confirm that Stephen tragically died yesterday whilst on holiday, with his partner Andrew, in Majorca. We are unable to give any other details at this time."

The remaining members, Ronan, Keith, Mikey & Shane added, "We are completely devastated by the loss of our friend and brother, Stephen. We have shared such wonderful times together over the years and were all looking forward to sharing many more. Stephen was a beautiful person in both body and spirit. He lit up our lives and those of the many friends he had all over the world. Our love and sympathy go out to Andrew and Stephen's family. We love you and will miss you forever, 'Steo.'"

The band was an enormous success in the UK before breaking up in 2000. They reunited in 2008 to release a Greatest Hits album, Back Again... No Matter What.



Our hearts go out to Stephen's family in this difficult time.

How did he die?



Posted by: anna nicole

How did he die? He died from an inordinate lifestyle of unseemly behavior...men with men. That's wrong! I hope it was worth it for him...that is the price you pay. Tragic to lose your life for sure but wait till judgement day!
