Sir Elton John Welcomes Zachary Jackson Levon On Christmas Day

Sir Elton John, 62, and his partner David Furnish, 48, welcomed a boy on Christmas Day, born via surrogate in California.

The newborn’s name is Zachary Jackson Levon. Fans of Elton John’s music will recognize the name Levon from the title of one of his songs.
