Sir Elton John's love life is far from quiet and it was even depicted in his wild biopic, Rocketman.
The legendary rocker, born Reginald Kenneth Dwight burst onto the scene in 1962 and has lived almost every moment of his adult life in the eyes of the media.
Middlesex-born Elton grew up in a working-class background with his mum Sheila Eileen but the singer has previously said his dad, Stanley, was "sealed off" from his music, adding: "Was it homophobia? Was it fear?"
