A recent report is saying that George Michael may have had a two-month stay at a luxury private retreat, The Sanctuary, in February in Australia to deal with a slate of issues including emotional anxiety and a drug disorder.  He was rumored to be battling a dependency on Valium since undergoing a tracheotomy in 2011.

George cancelled his Australian tour in September 2012 and released a statement at that time, saying that he would receive overdue treatment for the trauma associated with his near-death experience in 2011.

George has been Twitter-silent since January 2013 with only a few comments in the last five months.

In March, he was spotted walking his dog in England.
