He previously won in 1995 for Can You Feel the Love Tonight from The Lion King. Picking up his second Academy Award, he said: “To my beautiful boys who are watching this in Sydney, how much do I love you? Daddy loves you.”

Elton, 72, said: “I just wanted to say that because I am so moved, so overwhelmed, this means so much. I actually have two Oscars now, one each for my boys.
