As per the Independent, Elton John and David Furnish gave witness testimonies during Spacey’s UK trial in 2022. During his interview, Morgan asked Spacey what it was like garnering support from the singer and his husband.
He said, “You actually just reminded me that Elton was the first email I got on October 30th of 2017.” This was after Anthony Rapps’ allegation had come out against Spacey.
The email read, “‘We love you. Whatever you need, we’re here for you.’” The Usual Suspects actor revealed that he did not ask the pair to testify in court, but they insisted on doing so.
After Spacey told the couple about a “piece of information that one of the accusers had said about them, which was not true,” John and Furnish, both wanted to let it be known to the jury that the person wasn’t telling the truth. Spacey expressed that he is fortunate to have these friends.
