More from Sir Elton –
October 13th, 2019 – In particular, John opened up about the important role his drug addiction and eventual sobriety have played in his life’s story.

But in the end, unless I’d have got sober, I wouldn’t be the person I am today.” You can watch the entire Elton John CBS This Morning segment below:
