Elton had already declared himself homosexual in 1976 and, after his divorce from the German Renate Blauel in 1988, said he was comfortable being gay. Elton and David they started in 1993 a relationship that lasts until today. They are one of the first couples in fact of the United Kingdom, having formalized the relationship on the same day that it came into force in the country, the December 21 of 2005.
Apart from being a stable couple, Elton and David are a complete family: Its first son, Zachary Jackson Levon Furnish-John, was born from a surrogate on December 25, 2010. His godmother is the well-known Lady Gaga. his second son He was born on January 11, 2013, also born to the same surrogate mother, and was named Elijah Joseph Daniel Furnish-John.
With the law of equal marriage that is about to take effect in the United Kingdom, Elton John declared a few months ago that it was his and David's duty to be one of the first couples to get married in the country. As one of the most famous and stable homosexual couples worldwide, we hope that this wedding planned in May is an event of the stature and visibility that this Legislative progress in equality it supposes
Because love is love, Love is love, and as Elton sings in «your Song«: How wonderful life is while you're in the world.
