We don't often see photos of Elton John's children, but when we do it's a real treat! The singer shares two sons, Zachary, 12, and Elijah, 10, with his husband David Furnish.

Elton has previously opened up about his plans to step back from performing to spend more time with his children, telling NME: "I will do records and I'll do my radio show, but as far as schlepping and doing shows? I've had enough applause. I wanna be with my family. I wanna be with my boys."

We want to say huge thank you to EVERYONE who has welcomed our family so warmly. From the waves at Bondi Beach to the breathtaking beauty of the Great Barrier Reef, our sons have learned so much about this beautiful country. It’s been the trip of a lifetime and an experience we will treasure and never forget."
