George Michael is said to have died a "lonely and broken figure" who had become reclusive towards the end of his life, according to a biographer in an upcoming book.
The acclaimed musician had been one of the biggest names in the industry during his career - both as a solo artist and in pop group Wham! - though he wasn't necessarily happy.
He's said to have descended into a tormented and reclusive lifestyle towards the end of his life, with George having passed away of 'natural causes' in late 2016, aged just 53.
