Neil Patrick Harris has gushed about a dream "play date" between his twins and Elton John's 2-month-old son.

The How I Met Your Mother star first expressed his desire to introduce 5-month-old Gideon and Harper to young Zachary soon after John and partner David Furnish welcomed the child into their family on Christmas Day.

Speaking to Access Hollywood, Harris revealed that the long-awaited rendezvous had recently taken place.

He said: "Elton and David came to our house for Zachary’s first play date a couple weeks back. They’re great guys.

"They’re super great parents. They’re so fiercely involved in their son’s life and it’s really kind of great to watch them interact with him."

Harris and his partner David Burtka became parents to Gideon and Harper via a surrogate in October 2010.
