“We’ve got our sons, you know, they’re getting into their teenage years now,” Elton‘s husband David Furnish then added of their sons Zachary, 13, and Elijah, 11.
“We don’t want to miss anything. We want to be present for that,” David, 61, continued. It’s sort of a key decade, I think, in a child’s life.”
“He’s been doing it for 60 years,” David said. “So it’s nice to have that time to spend at home with family.”
Elton then recalled, “The last show in Stockholm on the farewell tour after Glastonbury, I got in the car and went: ‘Yes! yes!’ We went out on the biggest high, just the way I wanted to, and there’s no going back [after] that.”
