The outlet adds that the Queen camp have not supported these claims, but fans can expect to see a continuation of the Queen story in TV form.

As it was reported last month, Queen and Adam Lambert are set to appear in new documentary The Show Must Go On: The Queen + Adam Lambert Story.

The two-hour film, which will air on ABC in the spring will follow the legendary band's ongoing collaboration with Adam Lambert, who opened the Oscars 2019 with Brian May and Roger Taylor with an epic performance last month.

As detailed on ABC's website, The Show Must Go On "chronicles Queen and Lambert’s incredible journey since they first shared the stage together on American Idol in 2009."

They add: "From his humble beginnings and meteoric rise on reality TV to now standing center stage as lead singer of Queen + Adam Lambert, the documentary features brand-new interviews with Lambert, his parents Leila and Eber, and Queen founding members Brian May and Roger Taylor, as well as American Idol judge Simon Cowell, Golden Globe and Oscar winner for Best Actor Bohemian Rhapsody's Rami Malek, and Foo Fighters’ Taylor Hawkins."

The show must go on will air on ABC on 29 April at 8pm EDT.
