After weeks of speculation, Sir Elton John and David Furnish have finally revealed how their son Zachary was conceived.

While the pair had previously remained silent on which of them was the biological father, Furnish has now confirmed that he and Elton 'both contributed' to the conception of Zachary, who was born to a surrogate mother on Christmas Day last year.

In the case of a same sex couple using a surrogate to start a family, they are required to submit either one, or two (in the case of Elton and Furnish), semen specimens which are then used to fertilise a previously chosen egg.

Ummmmm, errrrrrrrr...Oh, never mind.

It doesn't matter if the two sperms were mixed together ... only a single sperm from one of them penetrates the egg, thus only ONE of them is the real father.

[Sacajaweau]

Guess what brainos....A DNA will tell which one is the father.

This kid doesn't have a chance.

[ladyvet]

...the couple haven't ruled out having more children in the future...

How special.

[rarestia]

So do they splice the gene profiles from both semen samples or what? If they just mix it all up and dump it on an ovum, only one spermie is required for fertilization.

Article is a bit sparse on details aside from the gushing.

Kinda makes me queezy.....poor, poor, little guy. I can’t imagine being raised in a “Liberace like” home and turn out “normal”.

[MsLady]

No kidding, it truly makes me sick to think of how this child is going to be raised.

[crosshairs]

So they both spit each other’s load into the test tube.

[macquire]

Betting that Elton & his boyfriend had an agreement that they BOTH would not conduct a DNA test to see which one was the REAL Father.

Also betting that both of them cheated on this agreement and have already secretly run their own DNA test just to hedge on the next lawsuit the boyfriend will file when Elton kicks the boyfriend out.
