Sheila Farebrother has revealed that Elton has cut her out of his life and she hasn't heard from him for three years.
According to The Sun, the 86-year-old said: "He has cut me off completely. It happened three years ago this June. He has had nothing to do with me since then."
Mystery surrounds the exact reasons behind the family feud but friends claim a row with Furnish was to blame.
Sheila admitted that it was "something like that" but added: "I don't want to go into what caused it. It is a painful subject. My son cut me out of his life for good."
Whatever the reason, the rift prevented Sir Elton from attending the funeral of his doting stepfather and Sheila says she knew nothing of her son's baby plans. She has yet to meet baby Zachary.
However, she confirmed that John still looks after her financially and insisted she would not "start mudslinging".
A spokesman for Elton told The Sun: "I have never had a conversation with him about whether he talks to his mother. She is a lovely lady but she is 86 and she is frail and old."
What do you think? Should Sir Elton make amends with his mother now that he has a child of his own? Leave a comment below...

Celebrity Feuds
These two who were once inseparable seem to be BFFs no more. What started with a few veiled comments from Gwynnie about an argument with a friend, has now escalated to snubbing each other at gigs. Will they ever make up?
The poor man's Simon Cowell has labelled Alan Carr a "stupendously mediocre" comic with a "whiny, repugnant" voice after Alan said he'd like to replace Morgan on the Britain's Got Talent judging panel.
Liam made a bit of an a*se of himself at the Brit Awards, prompting Peter Kay to take the mick out of him - to which Liam has responded with a volley of threats and insults. And we thought northerners were supposed to be friendly!
But then Liam does have a habit of rubbing people up the wrong way - including brother Noel after allegedly questioning the parentage of one of his children. Things got so bad between them that Noel left Oasis in the end!
Two of the biggest egos in tellyland collided when Morgan (as editor of the Daily Mirror) published pictures of Jezza snogging a woman who was not his wife. Water and punches have both been thrown, although the violence has subsided in recent years.
Piers obviously likes a barney though, because he seems determined to rile his fellow Britain's Got Talent judge - criticising her for talking about sex texts and claiming she would do anything for money.
Twitter has been something of a godsend to the celeb feud connoisseur - bringing us such delights as Lily calling Courtney a "paranoid drug addled lunatic" after she claimed Lily had stopped anybody else wearing Chanel at the event. Needless to stay, it didn't stop there...
If feuding ever becomes an Olympic event, we wouldn't bet against Sharon winning gold for Team GB. She's taken a series of pot-shots at Dannii since leaving The X Factor - all of which smells a bit of sour grapes to us.
Gordon Ramsay knows how to cook up a tasty controversy, so it was no surprise when asked when he had last complained in a restaurant, that he said it had been the last time he ate in one of Jamie's. Ouch!
Once they were BFFs, but Paris and Kim's friendship seems to have soured at about the point where Kim started getting more attention than Paris. The heiress was later quoted as saying that Kim's bum "reminds me of cottage cheese inside of a big trash bag". Lovely!
