SPOTTED George Michael & His Boyfriend!
George Michael has been spotted out and about for the first time since recovering from a life-threatening bout of pneumonia.
The 48-year-old boarded a plane to Amsterdam at Heathrow airport with his boyfriend Fadi Fawaz, 38, last night.
Though a little thinner than he was prior to his illness, the singer looked on good form.

The pop star received treatment for pneumonia at the AKH clinic in Vienna, Austria, for five weeks after falling ill in late November.
He was discharged from the medical centre on the morning of the 22nd December, and taken straight to the airport so he could be at home for Christmas.

George had to cancel all the remaining shows on his 'Symphonica Tour' when he became unwell.
The medics explained that Michael's case 'evolved from a severe pneumococcal infection', and 'necessitated intensive care due to its severity and extension.'
They made clear that he will need a period of 'complete rest' to recover from the illness but emphasised he had no further underlying health problems.
His doctors have said 'complete rest and peace and quiet are mandatory' for his recovery.'
George announced his return to England on the 23rd of December by posting on Twitter: 'hey everyone, your favourite homo is home :)))'
On Christmas Day he maintained his positive attitude, writing: 'I have a feeling this one is going to be my best yet....:)'
Happy 2012 my lovely boyz n gelz, hope yours was as heartwarming as mine..
On the 3rd January he responded to a Virgin Music poll in which he was voted best male artist with a cheerful: 'My God. I should catch something life threatening more often if this poll is anything to go by! Hehe!'
He added: 'Love to you all, may 2012 be the BEST year we've known, not the last, after all x'
