Gately Signed Off With ‘i’ll Be Busy On My Book’ Tweet
By WENNSunday, October 11, 2009
Tragic BOYZONE star STEPHEN GATELY was happy and busy in the days leading up to his sudden death on Saturday (10Oct09) - he was concentrating on completing a book while holidaying in Majorca, Spain.
After attending the Pride of Britain Awards on 5 October (09), the Irish pop star jetted off on vacation, telling fans he wouldn’t be posting updates online for some time.
In his final Twitter.com entry on 6 October (09), Gately wrote, “still busy - lots going on. Focussing (sic) on finishing my book next so may be quiet here.”
The singer was found dead on Saturday (10Oct09). Details of the tragedy have not been released.
Boyzone bandmate Shane Lynch, who is heading to Majorca to mourn Gately’s passing with family and friends, cannot believe the sad news.
He tells the News of The World, “We just need to get over to where he’s passed and work out what we need to do.”
Fellow bandmate Keith Duffy adds, “I feel like my world has fallen apart.”
A Boyzone publicist has confirmed the sad news.
