A series of tweets posted on Fadi Fawaz's Twitter account this morning claimed "the only thing George wanted is to die"
George Michael killed himself on Christmas Day after numerous suicide attempts, tweets from his boyfriend's Twitter account have claimed.
A series of tweets appearing on Fadi Fawaz's account this morning claimed the singer killed himself after a number of attempts at his life.
The tweets said: "Not sure who that nasty close friend of George (sic) but i was in a relationship with George Michael till i found him dead in bed.
"The only thing George wanted is to die. He tried numbers of times to kill himself many times and finally he managed.
"We loved each other very much and were together almost 24 hours a day."

The tweets were soon deleted and the account closed. No official confirmation has yet been given and the Mirror has contacted the singer's representatives for comment.
It is not known if Fawaz's Twitter account had been hacked. He used the same account last week to reveal that he found George dead in bed.
He also posted a tribute to the singer.
A tweet posted on Fawaz's account last night said: "I hate you 2016 from the bottom of my heart".

Another tweet said: "I would like to get the record straight. I’m 40-year-old and I’m fine art photographer."
On Boxing Day, a tweet on the account read: "Its a Xmas I will never forget finding your partner dead peacefully in bed first thing in the morning..I will never stop missing you."
It was reported today that George was in despair when he died because the voice that made him a superstar had been ruined.
The pop legend lost 20 per cent of his lung capacity after contracting pneumonia in 2011 and was devastated to find it had reduced his ability to sing.

He was torn apart by the setback to his plans for a comeback in 2017.
News of his state of mind emerged after an inconclusive post mortem raised the possibility that he did not die of natural causes as initially thought.

A source close to George, who died aged 53 on Christmas Day, said: “Losing voice capacity for a man like him was like losing his inner self or his soul.
“Things got so dark and difficult after it hit him. It tipped him over a psychological edge. George would never be the same man again – and more importantly, never be the same singer.
“He needed drugs and alcohol and anything he could get hold of to cope with such a severe loss.”
Friends revealed that the singer who shot to fame with Wham! suffered lasting effects from the life-threatening pneumonia, which left him unconscious for 15 days. Doctors had to perform a tracheotomy to keep his airways open
He recovered but found it difficult to walk uphill, swim and do the thing he loved most – sing.
It is understood he was left with only three quarters of his lungs functioning and could only limp through performances with the help of steroids and other medication. He could barely finish a concert, never mind a whole tour.
“It was the third big loss in his life,” said the insider. “He lost his partner Anselmo Feleppa to HIV, his mother Lesley and then the voice he once had.
“To lose your three most cherished things by your early 50s is very hard and was a big load to carry.
“George was an old soul who died young because he found it very hard to manage the albatrosses in his life.”

But he was determined to get back to making music and was set to release a new album next year, produced by Naughty Boy.
UK songwriter, musician and producer Naughty Boy, 31, said last month: “I can’t wait. I don’t know what to expect. He’s mysterious.”
The source confirmed: “Yes, he was going to do another album. He was planning to regain some breath control by regular swimming with a therapist and walking, to strengthen his lungs and get the weight down.
“But George knew that in reality his lungs would never regain their same capacity. Sooner or later he would be the star who used to sing for hours and do tours. Could he ever do this again? Could he be like Madonna, or Elton, or Mick Jagger – all older than him but but still bouncing around? That’s the kind of thing he was filled up with. He was a haunted man.”
George left three full albums of unreleased music in his private collection. Now they may never see the light of day.
The perfectionist performer had shelved the nearly-finished albums and those in charge of his estate will not go against his wishes.
George was found dead in bed at his home in Goring-on-Thames, Oxfordshire, by his partner Fadi Fawaz, 40. Further tests are planned to determine how he died. Police said the star’s death was still being treated as unexplained but not suspicious.
