Default Sir Elton John's partner will not become 'Lady John'

Quote:
SIR ELTON JOHN's new partner-in-law DAVID FURNISH will not become LADY JOHN, according to etiquette authority Debrett's.

In Britain it is customary for wives of knights of the realm to take the title of Lady in place of Mrs, but the rule will not extend to gay civil unions, which became legal in the UK this week (begs19DEC05).

A spokesman for Debrett's, publishers of PEERAGE AND BARONETAGE, says, "Even though they are married, people should still address him as Mr David Furnish."

Hee hee, it's too funny that someone took the time to ask the sore-arses if David Furnish would now be a lady! Classic.

Yep, I just don't think the upper crust are ready for that yet. BUT what would have been a better title for him?

It's fun just thinking of the limitless possiblities!
