One of the most brilliant performers of his generation, George Michael’s music career spanned 35 years. Following global fame with the pop group Wham!, his solo career sent him into the stratosphere. But the death of both his lover and mother, along with the pressures of keeping his sexuality a secret, took their toll. Conflicted and depressed, Michael turned to drugs and alcohol to numb his pain. His slide into self-destruction led to his sudden death at the age of 53. Now expert pathologist and coroner, Dr. Michael Hunter, investigates what was going on in the singer’s body that caused him to die so suddenly and at such a young age.
