Sir Elton John has revealed he will not be having any more biological children – because he has had a vasectomy.
And his partner David Furnish said they had decided not to expand their brood any more, explaining: “Our family is complete.”
The singer, 68, and his husband David, 53, have two sons – five-year-old Zachary and three-year-old Elijah.
The boys were born to a surrogate mother. It is not known whether Elton or David is the biological father.
According to The Sun, Sir Elton announced the news about his vasectomy at his Aids Foundation Oscar-viewing party on Sunday night in LA, adding: “No, I won’t be having any more children.”
It is not known why the singer decided to get a vasectomy.
But it was only a few weeks ago that Sir Elton said how much he would like a daughter.
In an interview on ITV’s Lorraine, he confessed “I wish I had done it earlier. I’d like a little girl.”
The couple said they had left their sons at home in the UK instead of bringing them to LA.
Sir Elton explained: “We normally bring them with us to this but didn’t this year as they are in school now.
“They’re not at all interested in dressing up like us, though. They couldn’t care less – only if they have Star Wars on them.”
