contactmusic.comSIR ELTON JOHN and DAVID FURNISH dashed from their wedding car when they 'married' in December (05), because they feared they would be attacked by homophobic protesters.
The pair were the most high profile gay couple to marry the first day same-sex civil partnerships became legal in Britain on 21 December.
And film-maker Furnish was convinced they would be singled out by those opposed to the change in law.
He says, "We were worried we'd be pelted with eggs or flour so we rushed into the building, but then we came out afterwards and our families were their, and our friends, and I felt, 'Wow, I can't believe this is happening.'"
