Scientists at The National Toxicology Institute in Barcelona concluded that the Boyzone star suffered a heart problem caused by atheromatosis, a thickening of arteries, and ruled out drink or drugs as a factor in his death.
The 33-year-old passed away while holidaying with husband Andrew Cowles in Majorca on October 10.
According to a report obtained by The Sun, Gately was dead for eight hours before his body was found and Cowles had slept next to him for three hours.
"There are no indications of a violent death," the report states.
The star's relatives previously revealed that the family had a history of heart problems.
In October, a preliminary pathology report said that Gately died from a build-up of fluid on the lungs and his passing was due to "natural causes".
Meanwhile, Gately's partner Andrew Cowles has formally complained to the Press Complaints Commission over Jan Moir's article about the singer's death in the Daily Mail, claiming that it breached guidelines on accuracy, intrusion into grief or shock, and discrimination.
