Duffy speaks of heartache
Boyzone's Keith Duffy has confessed he has found it hard to deal with the death of Stephen Gately. By Shelley Marsden - 20/11/09
Last night he described the pain of struggling to come to terms with the death of his "dear friend", saying he is "coping much better now" and trying to get on with his life.
"The first three weeks were very tough and I couldn't see any light at the end of the tunnel, but now, things have started to ease. I'm getting back to work and managing to get through the day," he told the Irish Independent.
Mr Gately died unexpectedly last month, aged 33, while on holiday in Majorca
"I'd never experienced losing somebody so close to me, somebody I kind of looked after and was a very dear friend of mine. It's hard to deal with."
He was speaking at the Westbury Hotel in Dublin, at the launch of 'The Keith Duffy Masquerade Ball 2009' in aid of Irish Autism Action and the Saplings School for Autism in Rathfarnham.
