 Elton John Is A Dad: Has Baby With David Furnish Through Surrogate

Elton John has finally become a father. The musician and his husband David Furnish welcomed son Zachary Jackson Levon Furnish-John into the world on Christmas Day. The proud parents released a statement to Us Weekly magazine:

“We are overwhelmed with happiness and joy at this very special moment. “Zachary is healthy and doing really well, and we are very proud and happy parents.”

How sweet! Zachary weighed 7 lbs 15oz, was 22 inches long and was born in California. The 63 year old singer would not release any more information about the mother or the birth.

Last year, Elton John attempted to adopt a Ukrainian boy, but was denied because of his age. Looks like he found another way to become a father.

And you have to wonder if  Elton John turned down ‘American Idol’ because he knew he couldn’t commit. His surrogate was pregnant earlier this year. He must have known the scheduling would keep him away from his son.
