Sir Elton John has credited Zoom for preserving his sobriety by allowing him to stay connected with the Alcoholics Anonymous fellowship during lockdown. Now 73 years of age and a father to young sons Elijah and Zachary with husband David Furnish, Sir Elton says video conferencing software Zoom helped keep him engaged with the AA community while isolating at home with his family. 'If it hadn’t have been for Zoom I don’t know what we would’ve done, I really don’t. Old times: Sir Elton has been very open about his battle with alcohol and cocaine addiction, a habit which nearly derailed his career and cost him his life'I am a survivor. Elton previously opened about his cocaine habit in his memoirs, which were serialised in the Daily Mail in October.
