Avicii’s ex-girlfriend opens up: ‘He was my closest confidante, and my best friend’

Tributes for the recently-departed Avicii have surfaced in abundance from those that had the pleasure to know the artist. As the electronic dance community mourns the loss of the beautiful and all too young Tim Bergling, these touching remembrances and heartfelt speeches have been plentiful. Now, his ex-girlfriend has opened up about her feelings around his sudden and tragic passing.

Avicii was not believed to have been dating anyone at the time of his death, though Emily Goldberg — who he dated from 2011 until 2013 — took to Instagram to share a handful of photos of the two together and a song he wrote for her.

‘“Come on babe, don’t give up on us. Choose me, and I’ll show you love.” Those are lyrics from a song Tim wrote for me. I wish I could have lived up to them. ‘For the two years we were together, he was my closest confidante, and my best friend. Now I can’t look at Bear [the dog they shared] without knowing I’ll never see his face again. ‘I’m still collecting my thoughts and thank you for all your kind words and texts. Wake me up when it’s all over, because I don’t want it to be real.”

 

Avicii’s official cause of death has not yet been revealed, although authorities have ruled that zero criminal foul play was involved.
