Sir Elton John and Madonna have finally put an end to their long-standing feud after the legendary piano-playing superstar wowed audiences on SNL. The two iconic pop stars have been at odds for years, with John previously making some harsh comments about Madonna, including calling her a “fairground stripper.”
However, time seems to have healed one of the music industry’s frostiest fallouts. Approaching his 80s, Sir Elton appears to be mellowing out and made a two-word plea to Madonna to mend their relationship. Madonna, 66, shared a photo of the two standing side by side on Instagram, announcing, “We Finally Buried the Hatchet!”
In addition to reconciling with Madonna, John has also opened up about the challenges he is facing in his final days. He recently experienced partial vision loss due to a severe eye infection, as revealed by RadarOnline.com. The toll of these health scares has taken a significant emotional toll on him and his family.
The 78-year-old musician shared his struggles, expressing how distressing it is to not be able to read or watch his sons, Zachary and Elijah, play rugby and soccer. Both boys were born via surrogate to John and his husband, David Furnish. John shared that he hasn’t been able to watch TV since last July and that the situation has been emotional but he is trying to adjust because he knows he is fortunate to have the life he has.
The journey of reconciliation with Madonna and the challenges he is facing due to his vision loss demonstrate the resilience and strength of Sir Elton John as he navigates through his final days in the music industry.
