Prince Charles makes Sir Elton John member Order of the Companions of Honour
Sir Elton John has been made a member of the Order of the Companions of Honour by Prince Charles for his service to music and charity.
Sir Elton John becomes a hip op star at the age of 74 — showing off his new gong despite needing a stick after surgery.
After being made a member of the Order of the Companions of Honour by Prince Charles at Windsor yesterday he reassured fans: “I’m still raring to go,” The Sun reported.
Sir Elton added: “I’ve had an amazing life, music has been my life, and I got this for music and for work for charity.
“I may not look as if I’m 100 per cent fit – I’m not quite – but I’m still raring to go and I’ve got a lot more work to do as far as my life goes.
