John Farnham spotted with family in rare public appearance

John Farnham has been spotted in a rare public outing at Coldplay's concert in Melbourne. 

The music legend was seen alongside his wife Jill and their two sons, Robert and James, at Marvel Stadium on Sunday to watch the British rockers on their tour around Australia. 

A heart-warming photo of the family was shared on Instagram by Robert, who captioned the snap, "We were guests of @coldplay last night at Marvel Arena."

"They were amazing. Was a pretty special night."

With Farnham in the audience, Coldplay's frontman Chris Martin announced to the crowd, "Mr John Farnham’s in the building,” prompting huge cheers.

The band then performed a call and response with the audience, singing the chorus of Farnham’s 1986 hit You’re The Voice.

James Farnham later posted a video of the special moment on Instagram, writing, "Coldplay’s little tribute to dad. Was pretty cool! Such a sick show!"

Farnham’s legion of fans jumped on social media to react to the singer’s surprise appearance.

“We were there and hearing that JF was in the house made my absolute year. Sssooo happy to see you all out and about enjoying life together. Please pass on my love,” one fan said.

“Awww amazing, what a prestigious honour and none more deserving than The Farnhams! Glad to see you all have a wonderful night together,” added another.

“Aw your dad looks amazing Rob! Bet you guys had a sensational time,” a third said.
