SIR ELTON JOHN AND DAVID FURNISH

Twenty-seven years after the first meeting, 73-year-old Sir Elton John and 57-year-old David Furnish are still happily together. They met each other at a dinner with a friend and fell in love at first sight. Elton “The Rocket Man” John and David Furnish are among the most popular LGBT couples in history. We think this has largely to do with the fact that Elton John is, to a huge degree, one of the most popular musicians in history, but we digress.

In any case, John and Furnish have been together for more than 25 years, and their relationship, at least as far as we can tell, seems to have survived without a hitch. Actually, “survive” is the wrong word—the word we’re looking for is “flourish.” John said that when they met, he was “attracted to Dave immediately.” And more than 25 years on, he seems to be “attracted to Dave” still.
