Did Elton John have a child with his ex-wife Renate Blauel?

Renate Blauel is best known as the ex-wife of Elton John.

Renate Blauel, a German was born in Munich and was a sound technician by trade.

Renate Blauel met Elton John in early 1983 in London after being introduced when he was finishing his Too Low For Zero album.

Known for being quite quiet compared to Elton, Renate apparently wanted to become a record producer.

Renate Blauel and Elton John married in 1984 while he was on tour in Australia.

However, Renate Blauel and Elton John divorced in 1988 and soon after Elton John came out as gay.

Renate Blauel and Elton John didn’t have children together. However, SIR Elton John did try to have children with his ex-wife despite saying he never wanted kids until he met David Furnish – bombshell court documents have claimed.

According to documents sighted by The Sun,  as part of a £3million legal claim against the singer, Renate Blauel, 67, claimed the couple did try and have a baby but struggled to conceive together.

Renate Blauel’s claims contradict those made by Elton, 73, who said in his memoir, Me, published earlier in 2020, that he didn’t want children until he met his husband David.
