Earlier this year, Elton shared a heart-warming letter to his sons in TIME magazine in honour of his 75th birthday.
Elton called his children "the two most precious parts of my life" before saying: "I have had an incredibly fortunate 75 years. I’ve had my share of adventures, and I’ll tell you about some of the wilder ones another time.

"But know this: the most rewarding journey in my life has been the one I began 12 years ago with your Papa, when we decided to start a family.
"Zachary and Elijah, you two are the greatest gifts I have ever been given. You have filled my heart with love and my life with purpose and meaning in ways I didn’t think were possible. You are my proudest achievements, and I love you both so, so much."
