Sir Elton John has revealed that being deemed unsuitable to adopt two Ukrainian children broke his heart.
The singer and his partner David Furnish wanted to adopt two young brothers that they met on an orphanage tour last September.
A government minister said at the time that Sir Elton would be denied adoption rights as he was "not traditionally married" and too old.
According to the Sunday Mirror, the 62-year-old explained to The Oprah Winfrey Show: "There were too many laws that said we couldn't do it in the Ukraine and it broke our hearts because we fell in love with these kids.
"Life is all about learning, trying to change what you are. I think a child would possibly be the icing on the cake but, so far, no."
