Never trust the Greek boy friend Lol

I don't know the details of their relationship such as how long they were together, did the bf play a role in his professional life such as manager, had the bf been in any previous wills, etc. I would think it would be pretty unusually if they were in a long time committed relationship and Michael did not make some provision for the bf, especially if the bf had been dependent on him in life. Who would exclude someone of such importance in their life? Perhaps Michael was still in denial about his sexuality to some degree?

Unlikely, since he came out. And then wrote a song about an unfaithful lover that he was afraid would contract something and "bring it on home to me." The song title was Spin The Wheel Likely a song about AIDS. Perhaps that wasn't simply a song, but a comment on their relationship? Pretty dark song, to boot, although it's just about infidelity. But a legitimate worry about something deadly the boyfriend could pass on (hence, likely a reference to AIDS).

Fadi Fawaz is dramatically arrested after ‘smashing up George Michael’s £5m London mansion’ [The Sun]

GEORGE Michael's ex Fadi Fawaz was dramatically arrested after going berserk and allegedly smashing up the late singer’s £5million house...

They also heard loud smashing noises and saw water gushing out of the front door.

When officers arrived, jobless Fadi was arrested on suspicion of aggravated criminal damage.

One neighbour said: “The damage inside the house is really bad. I’ve never seen anything like it.

“Every fixture and fitting, every door and window, everything George left in there - it’s all completely destroyed.

“Even the toilets and sinks have been smashed. There’s major damage to the walls and even the ceilings.

“This can’t have happened in just one night, he must have been systematically smashing the place up for a long time.

“It’s such a shame because George loved that place and it used to be so beautiful.”

It's conceivable maybe he was losing love for him & thinking of separation. And so didn't add him to the will. There's THAT possibility.

His trashing of the place hardly is good for his cause. The family offered him more than $600,000 to leave. That's pretty good.

Given his pronouncement of not wanting to work again, sounds like he's an entitled bum!

He's merely following a Greek tradition, no?

The house was worth £5 million. The entire estate was worth close to £100 million. Fawaz spent 9 years with George Michael. George Michael was a moody, alcoholic, difficult person. Fawaz got left out of the will.

If the family offered me just $600,000 out of a £100 million estate, I would have trashed their houses before I trashed George Michael's.

The family certainly was pretty mean minded when it came to Fawaz.

But he also seems to be a highly unstable man and I suspect, was an enabler of George's addictions. And now he has probably earned himself permanent eviction from the house.

^ and at least a temporary spot in the big house

Why buy the cow if you get the milk for free.

It's a pattern... Whitney, Michael Jackson, George Michael.. when you're the one with the talent, the checkbook and the income, those who are dependent have little choice but to enable.

Why buy the cow if you get the milk for free.

This thread is about George Michael, not Devin Nunes. Stay on topic.

oh, he does not age well.
Too much body fat.

 

[dpnice]

I am not supporting him in anyway but how do you survive when your boyfriend was a millionaire, paid for everything and shared a life none of us can imagine.

How do you go from being given everything to having nothing?

Is this way the greeks are poor in that country ?
Greek in other countries are quite rich.

I wonder how much he thinks would be fair? I bet the family will have to settle with him, they wouldn't have offered the 600 grand if they didn't bet that, too.

Are they SURE he wasn't a renter?

I'm guessing that he wanted the house.

 

[rareboy]

We had a neighbour who died unexpectedly...he died very, very, very rich, but left nothing to his wastrel brother who also lived on a property adjoining our farm, instead leaving all his estate to charity. In the end, our neighbour's partner and executors, with the co-operation of the charity, bought off the brother with $5 million.

Sometimes it isn't worth the hassle of fighting with someone contesting a will.

I suspect that Fawaz would have gone away for 5 million.

I suspect that Fawaz would have gone away for 5 million.

In the end, the family will end up paying close to that to repair the damage to the house.

The question that came to my mind is, "How codependent do you have to be to spend nearly a decade with someone and not either get married or make sure that you were in the will?". After that close call with pneumonia and liver issues a few years back, the handwriting was on the wall that Fawaz was going to outlive him.

 

[NotHardUp1]

That seems rather harsh.

People are notoriously ignorant and/or reluctant to address issues of inheritance. Many a widow has awakened to find herself bereft of her inheritance in states that allocate to children and leave widow's only lifetime tenancy.

I don't get how that the couple had to be codependent instead of merely devoted. Maybe it was always understood that it wasn't a forever bond, that they took comfort in one another's companionship, but that it was it.

Many celebrities are understandably skittish when assessing how much they are the object of love versus their great wealth. It's sad.

In the end, Fawaz wasn't promised any rose garden. His actions in destroying the interiors show his true character, which is all there is in the end.
