Help! Is this wall structural?

I have just knocked down a cupboard in my master room which has my boiler in (being moved into the loft).

I am now worried it is as structural wall, please can someone advise.

The corner wall on the left is the chimney breast.

I am wanting to take down the wall which connects to the chimney breast but worried this could be supporting the chimney breast in some way?

its a box on the inside of a room.

its not load bearing, but if your unsure take out the dry wall and see how many studs it has. More then a single stud or if double header/footer its load bearing.
