“I was a ticking time bomb. I guess I could have died at any time,” the now 77-year-old singer said.
In 2017, he had life-threatening complications following surgery for prostate cancer and said, “I didn’t really know how close to death I was.” John, then 72, continued, “I was ill because I kept saying, ‘Please let me get well. I want to see my kids.’”
And most recently the “I’m Still Standing” singer revealed he’s recovering from partial blindness.
‘Never Too Late’
On September 6, John and his 61-year-old husband walked the red carpet at the Toronto International Film Festival for the premiere of Elton John: Never Too Late, a documentary co-directed by Furnish.
It was the first public appearance for John since an eye infection left him with “limited vision.”
The film follows John’s decades-long career from his legendary 1974 performance at Madison Square Garden show to his final concert at Dodger Stadium in 2022.
It also shares some private moments.
