Medical professionals in Majorca will examine the late Boyzone’s singer’s body tomorrow, three days after he died suddenly at the holiday home he shared with his partner Andy Cowles in Port d’Andratx.

The examination was delayed for 24 hours due to a public holiday in Spain today.

The 33-year-old singer’s body-which is being kepy at the Hospital Anatomico Forense de Palma-was discovered in a crouched ‘praying’ position by Andy on Saturday lunch time (10.10.09), after the pair had enjoyed a night out at a local gay club.

The family has been told the most likely scenario is Stephen had a bit too much to drink, vomited in his sleep and choked. It was a terrible accident. Another source added,

“It is believed the pop star died after choking on his vomit.”

A family friend said, “The family has been told the most likely scenario is Stephen had a bit too much to drink, vomited in his sleep and choked. It was a terrible accident.”

Another sourced added, “Andy said he screamed, ‘Wake up! Wake up!’ at him. He also tried mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.

“But doctors later confirmed Stephen’s lungs had filled with fluid. There was nothing Andy could have done. He had drowned and asphyxiated.”

Spanish police are not treating the former Boyzone stars death as suspicious and Stephen’s family lawyer Gerald Keane has called his death a tragic accident.

Gately’s partner, Andy Cowles is said to be devastated by his death and completely blames himself for the tragic accient. “I will never forgive myself for this. He died and I couldn’t help him. I feel like my life is over,” he is said to have told the fellow Boyzone band members, according to the Daily Mirror.

A close friend also told the newspaper, “They kept telling Andy that he shouldn’t blame himself-but he just kept crying his eyes out.

“The guy is in a deep state of shock and he hasn’t slept for a minute since this tragedy unfolded. He is a total mess and everyone is worried about him.”

The friend added, “The told him that there is nothing he could have done at that he has to stop blaming himself.”
