Elton John has been spending the summer in France with his husband David Furnish and their two sons after wrapping up his Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour last month.

The 330-show, five-year tour grossed £720.11million, which is the equivalent to £2.18million per show or about £16,000 a minute.

While Elton hasn’t ruled out releasing new music in the future, he’s decided to retire from touring to spend more time with David and their kids.

However, Elton John added that he hasn’t given up performing for good and will likely still play “the odd show” every now and then.

Earlier this month, Elton was pictured celebrating with Kevin Spacey just weeks after the Hollywood star was cleared of sex assaults.

The music star gave a key testimony in Spacey’s trial last month and this week the pair partied in a restaurant with a band.

A video posted by The Snugglers showed Spacey, who had been accused of assaulting four men, filming as Elton joined in with the 1969 Elvis Presley classic.

The dinner, also attended by Sir Elton’s husband David Furnish, was held at the posh Petite Maison in Nice, France.
