The late George Michaelā€™s boyfriend, Fadi Fawaz, has recieved an apology from the starā€™s family,

Press reports had said the family tried to ban him from the burial amid an acrimonious grieving process.

Fadi Fawaz had previously said he knew nothing about the funeral, after the family excluded him from all discussions.

He received no invitation or news of the burial as of last week, as the star is thought to have been buried either yesterday or in the coming days.

Heā€™s now posted online ā€œFinally something nice x.ā€ as he received a letter from a family member of Michael.

The letter read: ā€œWe can clearly see from this photo the love that George had for Fadi, sorry to say that some of us including myself were judgemental and maybe cruel to Georgeā€™s lover Fadi and that surely must upset Georgeā€™s soul very much.

ā€œWe are all different, every one of us grieves differently.

ā€œSome go into shock some into disbelief and others into denial, our cruel comments and hurtful feelings and thoughts towards Fadi did not help him to grieve peacefully, and from day one if George could see what Fadi went through emotionally from the newspapers or the social media he would have come back to right the wrong.

ā€œFadi: sometimes a genuine apology, a heartfelt ā€˜I AM SORRYā€™ can change everything and start to mend the deepest wounds. ā€˜I AM SORRYā€™ grieve in peace.ā€

Details of the singerā€™s Ā£105m will have begun to emerge, with a very generous gift to his sister.

It comes after the body remained unburied for three months since his Christmas Day death.

The Wham! starā€™s cousin, Andros Georgiou, had said that Fawaz is banned from attending the funeral because the Michael family ā€œhate himā€.

Georgiou said: ā€œFadi has not been invited to the funeral.

ā€œHe is not welcome, the family hate him. Heaven help him if he turned up.

ā€œFadi was not really his boyfriend. No one has spoken to him and he just seems to be getting on with his life. It makes my stomach turn.ā€

Tests confirmed that George Michael died from ā€œnatural causesā€ last week.

According to a coroner, his death was caused by dilated cardiomyopathy with myocarditis and fatty liver.

Fawaz posted an emotional update online after the starā€™s cause of death was confirmed, saying the past three months as a ā€œcruelā€ experience.

He posted ā€œF*** YOUā€ on hearing the news of the coronerā€™s report.

Adding: ā€œAll the nasty comments, press and 999 were very cruel and unnecessary whatsoever, Now I hope to receive some real LOVE xā€
