Elton John and David Furnish

Elton John and David Furnish have been together for more than 25 years. The British singer recalled how he met Furnish, a Canadian filmmaker, in a 2010 interview with Parade.

“In 1993 I went back to my house in Windsor for a while. I wanted meet new people so I rang up a friend in London and said, ‘Could you please rattle some new people together for dinner here Saturday?’” he said.
“I was attracted to David immediately. He was very well dressed, very shy. The next night we had dinner.”
The rest was history, and the pair tied the knot in 2014 after having lived for years in a civil partnership.
