Elton John Admits He Has A Temper, And His Husband Is Too Darn Rational About It
HuffPost
In 2021, the singer said he was trying to get better at controlling his emotions, but confessed it was still a work in progress.
Elton John is opening up about how he can have quite the cold heart when he gets vexed.
In a new interview with Time magazine, the “Tiny Dancer” singer, 77, said he’s aware of how bad his infamous temper can get at times. But John said that David Furnish, his “very rational” husband of more than 10 years, keeps him centered.
“David can tell you that my fuse is very short, and the worst thing about my temper is that David is very rational about things, and he’ll explain,” John told the publication in a story published Wednesday. “And I’ll get even madder about it.”
Furnish, who met John in 1993, said the musician was “very shut down in terms of accepting love” in the early stages of their connection.
“No one had ever asked him to do personal things like go for a walk together, those kind of joyful things,” Furnish, 62, said.
