Elton John has reassured fans that he is in “top health”, after being spotted in a wheelchair ahead of his Platinum Jubilee performance.
In a post shared on Instagram, the 75-year-old said: “I want to thank all my fans for reaching out to ask about my health, after the tabloids ran a silly story about my ‘looking frail’ in a wheelchair.”
“The true story is that I’m in top health, loving my shows and playing and singing at my very best.”
