Melanie Panayiotou, the sister of George Michael, was laid to rest today as mourners including some famous faces came to pay their respects
George Michael's late sister Melanie Panayiotou was laid to rest this week, four weeks after her death on Christmas Day.
The 55-year-old hairdresser died in her home exactly three years after her beloved brother George died from natural causes aged 53.
It's not yet known how she died, but the police are not treating it as suspicious.
Many mourners turned up to pay their respects to Melanie, including Martin Kemp from Spandau Ballet, and his wife Shirlie with their son, I'm a Celeb star Roman Kemp.
It's been reported George's ex Fadi Fawaz was banned from the funeral as he had a strained relationship with the family of the late singer, especially after entering a legal fight over his claim on a share of his £98million estate.
Melanie was buried on Thurday morning, before a wake at her former Highgate home which was once owned by her brother.
She has reportedly been buried in Highgate Cemetery next to her mother Leslie and her brother George's unmarked grave.
MirrorOnline has reached out to a representative for George Michael's estate for comment.
Melanie's final public words were honouring George in a joint statement with her older sister Yioda, their dad Jack and George's former manager David Austin.

In it, she had penned: "Hello Everybody, Lovelies, (and pets of Lovelies)! We have come full circle again and Christmas time (and the holidays), are upon us once more.
"I think we as a family, (there are lots of us, we Greek Cypriots, we're everywhere)!! have come to fully appreciate (although we already knew really), quite how much love there is out there in the world, for both Yog and his beautiful music.
"We know how much his lyrics can offer support when things are tough and help celebrate when times are good and life is going well… and that is just as powerful now as if he were still with us and as many of you say in your messages, it's a gift."

George lies in an unmarked grave with no headstone because his family do not want it to turn into a shrine for the singer, and they also feared grave robbers would target it.
A source told The Daily Star: “George still doesn’t have a gravestone three years after his death, and it’s going to stay that way.
“Now that they will also have to visit the family plot to mourn Melanie, they don’t want to be wading through fans and their tributes just to pay respect to the growing number of their tragic loved ones.

During sentencing Mrs Justice Carr said: "This was a brutal and shocking attack with a machete on a police officer carrying out his duties during what should have been a routine stop of a van to investigate whether you were properly insured.
"I'm sure the violence started with you when PC Outten blocked your attempt to close your door.

She said Rodwan deliberately picked up the machete "in a rage" when all he had to do was to stop resisting arrest.
Pc Outten showed "considerable presence of mind and fortitude" in Tasering his attacker, despite his injuries, she said.
