Alcoholic mum wants to keep her baby away from Elton John

After having announced plans to adopt a Ukrainian baby, the mother of the child now said in an interview, that she would never let Elton John adopt the 14-month-old boy.

She has serious problems with alcohol and is a victim of HIV. 25-year-old Marina does not have the ability of taking care of her two little children, that is why they had to be taken away from her. Faded Youth Blog has reported on the case: Sir Elton John and his husband David Furnish want to adopt one of these children - a little boy called Lev. He fell in love with him at first sight, but Ukrainia refused adoption, for John is too old. And as homosexuals do not have the right to marry in Ukrainia, he may not be seen as the right person for a father.
