How Elton John became a close friend of the Royal Family: From jiving with the late Queen to becoming part of Meghan and Harry's inner circle

From Rocket Man to Tiny Dancer and all the hits in between, members of the British Royal Family have been long-time fans of Sir Elton John, who turns 78 today.



Elton John's friendship with the British Royal Family began in the 1970s with Princess Margaret and grew to include multiple generations, including the late Queen Elizabeth II, with whom he shared a mutual love of music and a playful dynamic. He developed a close bond with Princess Diana through their shared activism for AIDS awareness and became a part of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's inner circle later on.
