Stephen Gately was found dead at the age of 33 as it was reported.
Stephen Gately, member of the boy band called Boyzone was found dead on Sunday while on holiday in Majorca with his long-term partner Andrew Cowles. The cause of the death was unclear as there was no suicide note or evidence of any drug use or excessive drinking.
Boyzone had 17 top five singles and four number one albums before splitting in 2000. Although they made a comeback tour in 2007, their recent 19-date Better tour was deemed a flop as the band played to half-filled arenas.
Rest in peace.
