The unfortunate news of Stephen Gately’s death did not only shock the remaining 4 members of the popular 90’s group Boyzone but it also shocked all of their fans around the world. His death was sudden and unexpected and the 4 remaining members want to release an album as tribute to their fallen friend.
Gately died at a young age of 33 while on a vacation in Majorca with his husband Mr. Andrew Cowles. When the 4 remaining members were interviewed, they revealed that Stephen Gately had pre-recorded 2 songs already for their upcoming album. Ronan Keating also said that Stephen Gately texted him that he was so excited for the album. It’s so ironic that when he was at the time that he exudes happiness and was so full of life that he suddenly died. But, with grief comes acceptance and moving on. For the four remaining members of Boyzone, the way to move on is to complete the tribute album although it was rather hard for them but they needed to grieve together.
Stephen Gately shocked the world when he admitted several years ago that he was gay. He then married his beau Andrew Cowle. As a young kid, Stephen was not able to reveal his homosexuality because it was still at a time that Ireland was still not able to embrace it. He was given a great send off by Dublin and the band was so proud of that.
