George Michael might have been one of the world’s most iconic pop stars, but that didn’t matter a jot to his longtime lover.

All Texan art dealer Kenny Goss wanted was for the “Faith” singer to stay alive and he became so desperate that he flushed his soulmate’s secret stash of hard drugs down the toilet whenever he found it.

The pair split in 2011 – six years before George was found dead at his English country mansion – and the devastated 58-year-old revealed last week that when they were together, he constantly worried about George’s intake of crack cocaine and ecstasy, and his 25-joints-a-day pot habit.

Heartbroken Kenny tells, “I’d find the drugs and flush everything down the toilet, thinking, ‘If I just get rid of it, he won’t get more.’ He was absent-minded, so would just think he’d lost them.”

Kenny has broken his silence to pay homage to the “kind and generous” man to whom he dedicated 15 years of his life.

George, 53, was found lifeless last Christmas morning by his boyfriend Fadi Fawaz, 43. His body remained in the morgue for 94 days awaiting extensive toxicology reports, but his death was finally ruled to be from natural causes.

In the first glimpse into the star’s very private funeral, attended by 50 family and friends on March 29, Kenny says he didn’t cry. Instead, he pictured George in his prime, wearing “an amazing suit with his Cartier watch on”, and placed his hand on the coffin, feeling reassured his ex was now resting in peace.
