Investigations
into George Michael's death seem to be becoming a "pain" for the late
pop-star's family. A new report has claimed that the iconic singer's
father Kyriacos Panayiotou is "devastated" as the ongoing police probe
continues to delay the traditional Greek Orthodox burial.
According
to The Sun, Michael's father has already narrowed down on all the
"funeral details" with pall bearers coming all the way from Cyprus. "But
it cannot go ahead until the body is released. That is a real source of
pain for the family," a source close to the family said.
With
the ongoing police investigation into Last Christmas hitmaker's
"unexplained" death, family friends have revealed that their "pain"
increases by the day. "Kyriacos is devastated and has been comforted by
the priest and his closest family. He's in shock and no one has seen or
spoken to him," the source added.
The
insider continued, "George was a hero for our community, and the Greek
radio stations are expected to play the funeral in its entirety. We are
all waiting for the word and will be lining the streets to pay our
respects."
If
rumours are to be believed, Michael's long-time former boyfriend Kenny
Goss will also take part in the funeral ceremony. Shedding more light on
Goss attending the superstar's funeral, a source revealed, "It is not
acceptable in our community to be homosexual and so that was very hard
for George's father, but we accepted George as he was."
Michael
died at the age of 53 and was body was found at his own home in
Goring-On-Thames, Oxfordshire. While initially it was believed that the
Careless Whisper singer died of a suspected heart failure, the post
mortem report was inconclusive. Further tests are being carried out and a
full inquest into Michael's death will take place later in the year.As of now, Thames Valley Police has been considering the singer's death as "unexplained but non-suspicious".
