‘Genuinely so happy’

Meanwhile, Furnish says his famous husband experienced “a lot of anxiety” when watching scenes specific to his mortality.

“I don’t think it’s a conversation you want to have with your children. I don’t want to plant that seed in their mind,” Furnish says. “Elton’s been through a lot, but he’s also as strong as an ox. He rarely cancels shows. He’s a strong man, and he’s a healer. He’ll probably outlive me. He’s just so tough.”

Furnish says having the boys was an “instant epiphany” that inspired his husband to retire from touring.

“He’s never going back on the road. He’s genuinely so happy,” Furnish says, adding that after 30 years together, the couple is finally “at this moment that we’ve only ever dreamed of.”
