Stephen's body is to be flown home on Friday and his funeral will be held on Saturday at his local church on Sheriff Street in Dublin where he was raised. From what i've heard the rest of the boyz from Boyzone are flying back out to Majorca later in the week to accompany him home :(

Pretty annoyed today about something I read in the paper. The mysterious Bulgarian who allegedly went back to Stephen and Andy's home with them is making horrible allegations. I wish he'd just shut up! And anyway, isn't he making himself a suspect by saying these things? :angry::angry:

It is disgusting but it's the same when any celeb dies, there is always someone waiting in the wings to sell some dodgy story.

Just saw the rest of the boyz making a statement to the media in Palma, Majorca before they bring Stephen home, it was pretty sad and defintley brought a tear to my eye :(
