Who Did the Singer Leave Out in the Will-derness?
During his lifetime he was known for his generosity, financially helping out family, friends and even strangers.
So it’s come as a surprise to many that George Michael excluded two of the men he was closest to from his will.
The singer, who died from natural causes on Christmas Day 2016, aged 53, left a staggering $176 million, but none of the money will go to his former lovers Fadi Fawaz and Kenny Goss.
Instead, it’s been confirmed that the bulk of his estate will go to his sisters Melanie (55) and Yioda (57), with his father Kyriacos (80), and seven close friends and staff getting the rest.
Hairdresser Fadi (45) was in an on-off relationship with George for the last five years of the Careless Whisper star’s life and was the one who discovered his body at his country home in Oxfordshire.
