The family have been on numerous skiing holidays and it was clear how much the boys had improved as they took to the slopes and were slaloming with ease. The youngsters were all decked out in black as they followed an instructor, who was on a snowboard, down the slopes. They looked like pros as they maneuvered with ease, and David couldn't help but share his pride in his sons.

"They heard us talking - we had planned for Elton to be off the road in February but then they moved the Oscars to March, and fans had been holding on to tickets for 700+ days and we knew we couldn't keep moving shows," David said.

"So the boys said, 'we will help you.' I am really proud of them."
