Sir Elton John says his mother was against his civil partnership due to mild homophobia .
The 74-year-old musician and his husband David Furnish had a civil partnership in 2005 and married in 2014 but Elton admitted their big day was overshadowed by his mother Sheila Farebrother s disapproval.
Speaking during YouTube Pride 2021, David, 58, said: We surround ourselves with the people in life that give us the skills to cope, the support that we need. So many people are rejected by their biological families. Particularly within queer communities. Coming out can be a very difficult thing.
Elton added: Families can be very pro or very anti. My family, my mother and my step father, were very, very easy with me coming out.
