In the aftermath of George Michael’s death, tweets posted to Fawaz’s account claimed the 53-year-old attempted suicide on multiple occasions and wanted to die.

Fawaz maintained his Twitter had been hacked, but a family member of Michael’s cast doubt on their relationship.

“One thing is for sure this was not an act of suicide,” Michael’s cousin Andros Georgiou shared on Facebook in mid-January.

Since his death, Michael has received several tributes from artists including Chris Martin, longtime friend Elton John and Adele.
