Singer Elton John spent the night in a Monaco hospital after he fell at his villa in Nice Sunday.
John, 76, was taken to the orthopedic department of the Princess Grace Hospital Center in Monaco where he was treated for minor injuries.
A spokesman confirmed to the BBC that John was admitted “following a slip yesterday at his home in the south of France”.
“Elton visited the local hospital as a precautionary measure,” his spokesman said.
The “I’m Still Standing” singer was discharged “following check-ups,” according to the spokesman and is “now at home and in good health.”
John recently completed his Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour in July.
According to TMZ, John had been vacationing in Nice with his husband and their two children.
