George Michael's sister Melanie dies aged 55 on #Christmas Day exactly 3 years after her brother's death
George Michael's sister Melanie Panayiotou has died at the age of 55 exactly three years since the singer's death on Christmas Day 2016.
The hairdresser was found by her older sister Yioda Panayiotou, 57, at her home in Hampstead, north west London on Wednesday, December 25. Andrew Ridgeley, 56, shared his heartache over the 'utterly tragic' death of his Wham! bandmate's sister on Twitter this afternoon. He said: 'Utterly tragic news of Mel Panayiotou's passing. My thoughts are with her sister and father at this desperately sad time.' Melanie and George were close, and she was left part of his estate - which included a £97.6million fortune and a Grade II listed mansion in Highgate, North London - after his death.
