George Michael denies wedding postponed to dodge press

George Michael has denied suggestions that his planned civil partnership with Kenny Goss will not go ahead because of those recent tabloid reports that the singer engaged in some "improper activity" with an unemployed van driver in London. He explained to Richard & Judy that the ceremony had merely been postponed to try and avoid press intrusion. "With all the rubbish I've had to put up with in the last six months, we wouldn't get a small private wedding, which is what we want," he said. "I wanted something small and quiet, but I don't even think we'd get away with that at the moment."
