Here's the sweet reason George Michael decided to fund a stranger's IVF treatment.

Good guy George Michael is responsible for babies everywhere, and not just because of his music. After hearing Jo Maidment's story of her fertility troubles on morning TV, the late George Michael anonymously donated thousands of pounds for her to undergo IVF treatment.

A truly generous dude, Michael felt motivated to do something after hearing the story. And while most of us only have the means to tweet or talk about it, George Michael paid it forward.

The singer identified himself at first as a "businessman," and after the treatment, Maidment gave birth to her daughter Betsy in 2012.
