UPDATE: Elton introduces the world to his son
Tuesday, January 18 2011

Elton John and David Furnish have been pictured for the first time with their newborn son Zachary Jackson Levon.

The couple became parents to the baby boy, who was born on Christmas Day, through a surrogate mother.

In an interview with OK! Magazine, Elton and David talk openly about the birth and their love for Zachary. Elton said: "There just aren't proper words to describe that feeling. It's indescribable. It was just...we have a son."

They also talked about their plans for Zachary's upbringing.
"I'm ready to have a child and lavish my love on our son and not spoil him," Elton said. He had previously spoken of his desire to become a father, announcing last autumn that he wanted to adopt a boy from an orphanage in Ukraine. But his plans to adopt a baby named Lev were thwarted because the country does not recognise same-sex marriages and its laws deemed him too old.

In the interview, the couple also said they will never give up on the 26-month-old orphan and his HIV-positive brother Artyom, four. The couple is donating all fees received from the interview and pictures of Zachary to charity.

Readers in the US should get the the new issue of Us Weekly (out January 19, 2011), in which Elton and David share first-ever photos of their beautiful baby son, who was born on Christmas Day.
