Pictures show a solemn-looking man in his 50s at the address on December 23 as well as a number of friends carrying gifts, according to the Mirror.

A woman also delivered flowers, a handyman fixed a light outside and an Ocado driver dropped off at least three bags of groceries to the pop icon's home. 

George Michael's boyfriend Fadi Fawaz, who has since been quizzed by police as part of their investigation, was also seen in and out of the property.

A source told the Mirror: 'It was very busy at the house in the days before George died.

'A number of people were coming and going, delivering various items.

'It looked like they were preparing for a gathering – which makes George's death even more tragic. He definitely wasn't alone. 

'He looked to be surrounded by many people who cared about him.'

George Michael's death on Christmas Day at his Oxfordshire mansion aged just 53 brought an outpouring of grief from his fans around the world.

The cause of death of the singer, who had battled with drugs and depression, was said to have been heart failure.

But after the first post-mortem results were 'inconclusive' and further tests were ordered, the mystery surrounding his last moments has deepened. 

On January 2, his boyfriend Fadi Fawaz denied sending tweets saying the star was suicidal, claiming his Twitter account had been hacked.

The confusion was compounded when Mr Fawaz, who originally said he spent the weekend at the mansion in Goring-on-Thames, told a newspaper he'd slept in his car overnight.

New test results are expected to be established within six to eight weeks which could help shed some light on how the legendary singer came to his premature death.
