Sir Elton John and David Furnish constantly wear cloths over their shoulders to protect their clothes from baby vomit.
The couple welcomed their son Zachary into the world on Christmas Day last year (25.12.10), and the 48-year-old filmmaker revealed he and Elton have taken to sporting the unusual fashion accessory as they adjust to being first time fathers.
He said: "We have muslins over our shoulders in case the baby spews up on us."
Elton, 63, recently revealed he and David found it quite easy to adapt to the rigors of parenthood thanks to the fact he has so many godchildren - including Elizabeth Hurley's eight-year-old son Damian - and his husband has a large group of nieces and nephews.
He explained: "I have a lot of godchildren. It's not as if children aren't in my life at all. They've been very prevalent in my life, over the last few years. David has lots of nieces and nephews. I'm a great lover of children.
"I never thought that one day I'd actually be a father, but I'm very pleased that I changed my mind. Children are extremely important. They are the future of the world. As long as David and I bring our son up to be a loving and compassionate boy, then I'll be very happy. I love kids."
