So this great talent combined with this great personality? That’s how I’ll remember him.”

“His boyfriend would sometimes go to the cafe opposite his house to pick up food, but never George himself,” the source added. “I have never seen him.”

Fadi Fawaz, George‘s rumored boyfriend, told a publication that he found his boyfriend passed away in bed on Christmas day.
