Elton John and David Furnish – 26 Years

Five-time Grammy award-winning musician Elton John probably doesn’t need any introduction. He bagged an Academy Award and a Golden Globe, to name a few outstanding credits. In 1993, he met his partner, the Canadian filmmaker David Furnish. It was only in 2014, however, that they were able to exchange vows. This was the year that England legalized gay marriage, and we’re certainly glad that more couples can come forward and have their right to enjoy wedded bliss. The Hollywood pair was so overjoyed that they even chronicled the special day on Instagram!

Today, David serves as a member of Elton John’s AIDS charity board. Annually, they host a black-tie event to raise funds for the organization very near to Elton’s heart. In an interview, the Candle of the Wind singer revealed that their love for each other got better and better over the years— although he acknowledged that things still have to be worked out every now and then, especially when you’re married.
