I'm not banned from George Michael's funeral, says Fadi Fawaz

Former Wham star George Michael's boyfriend, Fadi Fawaz, has rubbished reports that he has been banned from attending the singer's funeral, saying "it is not true."
Fawaz, who was Michael's partner for several years prior to his death last year, took to Twitter to shut down the news.
"Let me make it clear that I'M NOT BANNED TO GO TO THE FUNERAL none of it is true, ITS NOT TRUE, NOT TRUE NOT TRUE NOT TRUE," Fawaz wrote.
He followed up the post by sharing a black-and-white photo of Michael giving him a kiss on the head.
"This image says it all," he captioned the photo.

Fawaz's tweets came after Michael's relative Andros Georgiou told an international publication that the celebrity hairstylist was "not welcome" to attend the burial.
"Heaven help him if he turned up. Fadi has not been invited to the funeral - the family hate him," Georgiou had said.
