Elton John Rushed to Hospital and Treated For Injuries After Fall
Elton John Rushed to Hospital and Treated For Injuries After Suffering Fall
Elton, 76 Hospitalized After Falling at Home in France
BBC 28 AUG 2023
Elton John has been rushed to hospital after he suffered injuries following a fall in his villa in Nice, France. The legendary 76-year-old musician was taken to hospital after the incident late on Sunday night.
He was rushed to the orthopaedic department of the Princess Grace hospital in Monaco, his team tell The Mirror. Sir Elton received 'checkups' from medical professionals after the slip at his lavish mansion in the south of France.
The Tiny Dancer hitmaker is now thought to be recovering at home after being discharged from the hospital on Monday morning. A representative for Elton confirmed the ordeal in a newly released statement, saying he suffered a 'slip'.
He was enjoying some relaxation time after retiring from performing after his Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour in July. The tour which started in 2018 managed to gross £649,131,280 worldwide. However, he is now choosing to spend some more time with his husband and their children, despite saying he might play the 'odd show'.
Speaking about how much his children mean to him, he said: "If you'd had said to me ten years ago I'd be sitting on your show married to the man I love and have two beautiful children I would have said, 'You put acid in my drink'.
"But life throws you challenges and life throws you curveballs — great curveballs — and these two children have come along at a time I never thought I'd have children. There's no words to describe how much we love these boys. They're just amazing."
