Inside Elton John and David Furnish's Love Story
After more than 25 years together, Elton John and husband David Furnish have become the very public face of same-sex coupling. The English rock legend and Canadian filmmaker and former advertising executive are red carpet regulars, attending events and fundraisers, proudly posing for photos hand-in-hand or one with an arm around the other. John met Furnish, 15 years his junior, in October 1993. Sober for three years following more than a decade of substance abuse, the singer was learning to live life without drugs or alcohol, residing mainly at his home in Atlanta.
