Congratulations to Elton John and his husband David Furnish:
You can now add “father” to Sir Elton John’s jam-packed resume.
He and his partner, David Furnish, became the parents of a 7-pound, 15-ounce baby boy named Zachary Jackson Levon Furnish[-John, according to other sources], born to an anonymous surrogate. Furnish is older than most new dads at 48, but at 62, John is entering fatherhood at an age when others are approaching grandfatherhood.
By the time their son hits 18, John will be 80 years old.
I quote from that piece, because that’s the first thought that came to my mind: DANG, he’s doing the fatherhood thing late in life. Anyway, best of luck!
