Elton John gets married to boyfriend
Sir Elton John, 58, and his partner, David Furnish, 43, have been together for 12 years, but this is the first time they have had an opportunity to make their relationship official in the eyes of the law and obtain much the same rights as any other married couple would have. The private ceremony was witnessed by just a few people, including Elton's mother and stepfather, and David's parents who flew in from Canada to attend. Jack Furnish called the event "one of the happiest days of my life". The ceremony was held in same venue where Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles married in April, and was conducted by registrar Clair Williams, who also presided over the union between Charles and Camilla.
