George Michael reveals 'great pain' following Kenny Goss break-up

Washington, August 29 (ANI): George Michael has opened up about his split from longtime partner Kenny Goss for the first time, telling fans that he has been suffering "great pain" and is still "searching for peace of mind".

The 'Faith' singer admitted earlier this month that he and Goss had separated over two years ago, despite denying the split rumours on U.K. TV series The Wright Stuff in March.

"For the few of you that might care, I don't lie to you ever. When I called Wrights (sic) Show in March I told him 3 things. That Kenny had not left me, that he had never threatened to, and that i still loved him. All of those three things remain true," Contactmusic quoted him as writing on his Twitter page.

"Love is not always enough when the past isn't finished with us. Kenny and I have learnt that the hard way, and it put us both, and unfortunately others, especially our loved ones, through great pain.

"I pray he is searching for peace of mind as hard as I am. In the meantime I have a huge family of friends in the people I sing for," he added.

And Michael insists his career is helping him move on from the love split, adding: "Music, the great healer. More fun than time too. Time just means waiting to heal, music reminds you right now that there's a good f**king reason to, that one day you will wake up and count your blessings again." (ANI)
