The family of Stephen Gately have said his death on Saturday was a “tragic accident.”

The Boyzone star died whilst on holiday in Majorca with his partner Andy Cowles at the weekend.

Now a statement from his family’s solicitor has said that no drugs were involved and that it was not suicide.

A post mortem on the body will be carried out in Majorca today- where the rest of Boyzone have flown to.

Gately’s family have also rejected tabloid claims that he was on a massive drinking binge when he died.

The Sun today claims that it was Bulgarian clubber Georgi Dochev who found the star dead.
