Elton John has hit out at reports he was seen looking 'frail' and offered assurances to his UK fans ahead of his show in Sunderland at the weekend.
The music icon has seen plans for his Yellow Brick Road Farewell Tour thwarted over the past few years, with the pandemic and subsequent restrictions, as well as his own injury, forcing him to postpone a whole host of dates across the globe. There was great excitement last year when it was announced that he'd be playing the Stadium of Light, with fans in the North East excited at the prospect of seeing him for one last time.
And, after a long wait, there are now just days to go before Elton, the man who's given us countless classics like Your Song, I'm Still Standing and The Bitch is Back is on the pitch at the home of Sunderland AFC, with a few tickets still available.
