Pop legend Sir Elton John has revealed he “can't wait” to bring son Zachary to watch the Hornets at Vicarage Road.

Sir Elton, 63, Life President of Watford FC, and his partner David Furnish became fathers when Zachary was born on Christmas day to a surrogate mother.

“I was talking to the Watford manager Malky Mackay and they've dropped off a Watford kit for him at my house in London,” he told the Daily Telegraph.

“One of the great things about having a boy is that he'll be brought up as a Watford supporter. I can't wait to take him there for his first game.”

He joked: “If he chooses Chelsea, I'm going to kill him.”
