George Michael has admitted he refuses to take HIV tests because he’s so worried about the results.

George makes the confession in a forthcoming BBC2 documentary about the illness and the show’s producer explained: “George says he does not believe in tests.

“He says he finds the wait for results too harrowing and that he hasn’t had a test since at least 2004 due to his fears it might be positive.”

George has been in a long-term relationship with Kenny Goss since 1996 but his first long-term partner, Anselmo Feleppa, died of an AIDS-related illness in 1993. George and Kenny are expected to marry later in the year.
