Elton John is Biological Father of His New Baby

When a gay couple becomes parents via surrogate, there’s the question of which guy is the kid’s biological dad.

We recently found out in the case of Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka, each is the father of one of their fratneral twins.

Now it is being reported that in the case of the baby recently born to Elton John and partner David Furnish, the famous singer is the biological father.

“Elton really wanted the child to have his genes,” a friend of John and partner David Furnish reveals to the website PopEater. “He has a God-given talent and wanted to pass that on to a child. And after years of discussion and thought, Elton and David decided together that Elton’s sperm would be used.”

Son Zachary was born weighing 7 lbs., 15 oz. via a surrogate mother in California on Christmas Day. This is the first child for John, 62, and Furnish, 48.
