Elton John and his partner David Furnish are planning a low-profile wedding in May, following a change in British law allowing gay marriages.
The singer told NBC’s Today show that he wants to celebrate very quietly, and added: It will be a joyous occasion and we will have our children.
The two men, who have been in a civil partnership since 2005, have two children.
In quotes released on NBC’s website Monday, the singer said: We shouldn’t just say ‘Oh, well, we have a civil partnership, we’re not going to bother to get married’. We will get married.
Same-sex marriages were allowed for the first time in Britain Saturday, when a new marriage law came into effect.
