E! News confirms the George Michael's funeral was held Wednesday. Only close friends and family attended the small ceremony, including boyfriend Fadi Fawaz. "Family and close friends gathered for the small, private ceremony to say goodbye to their beloved Son, Brother and Friend," Michael's rep tells E! News in a statement. Michael died on Christmas, and an initial autopsy proved inconclusive. Further tests revealed in early March that the late singer's cause of death was "dilated cardiomyopathy with myocarditis and fatty liver." In the aftermath of his death, tweets posted to Fawaz's account claimed the 53-year-old attempted suicide on multiple occasions and wanted to die. Fawaz maintained his Twitter had been hacked, but a family member of Michael's cast doubt on their relationship.
