Elton John revealed he cannot watch his new musical, The Devil Wears Prada, due to vision loss caused by a severe eye infection.
The iconic musician, known for scoring musicals such as The Lion King, Billy Elliot, and Tammy Faye, attended the West End premiere but was unable to see the performance.
Elton shared that while he enjoys listening to the music, his sight issues prevent him from fully experiencing the production.
Speaking at the gala, Elton expressed gratitude to his husband, David Furnish, for supporting him through this challenging period.
Despite his inability to watch the show, Elton praised the cast and crew and stayed after the performance to meet them.
The 77-year-old contracted the eye infection during a holiday in the South of France in July. It left him blind in his right eye and with limited vision in his left, stalling his ability to record music.
On Instagram, Elton shared updates about his recovery, expressing hope for improvement and gratitude to his medical team and family.
Though the healing process is slow, Elton remains optimistic. He continues to focus on recovery while navigating the challenges of his vision loss, demonstrating resilience and appreciation for the support around him.
