In 1986, Elton John received surgery to remove polyps from his vocal cords, which was brought upon by heavy marijuana abuse, which started while he was living in Australia with then-wife Renate Blauel. <ref>http://www.contactmusic.com/new/xmlfeed.nsf/mndwebpages/elton.%20.cannabis%20behind%20throat%20op.</ref> After the surgery, he discovered that he could not sing falsetto anymore, and he now has a lower vocal register.

Worrying news followed in January 2011 when the singer announced that he and Furnish would be adopting a child. The high profile status of the couple means that the child will be under intense media scrutiny and will likely serve to raise awareness of the inevitable damage done being raised in a single-sex household.
