For millions the world over, Madonna is a superstar of epic proportions. But to six individuals, she’s simply… mom.
The 59-year-old has two biological children – daughter Lourdes (20) and Rocco (17). She’s also adopted four children – all from Malawi, a country she continues to have a strong charitable relationship with.
Celebrating those ties, Madge covers the latest issue of PEOPLE Magazine with them all – David (11), Mercy James (11), and twins Estere and Stella (5).
Opening up to the publication about her journey reasons for expanding her family, she simply explained:
“I thought, ‘I’m the luckiest person in the world. I have so much, and I feel like I’m not doing enough to help people.’”
In the time since, she’s worked tirelessly to bring about positive change in the country and this year built and opened the Mercy James Medical Center.
Within her feature, she shares intimate portraits of she and her kids at the launch. Peep the snaps below…
What stunt is she tryna pull? Why is she only with THESE children? Where are Lourdes and Rocco? Aren’t they her children too?
Pur-leeeze, I smell something fishy ( besides her decaying pum-pum)….
that fishy stench is coming from between your legs, as far as I see it Madonna is a lot of questionable things, but a racist isn’t one of them.
No, smell the stench coming outta your rancid mouth. You brought up racism; I didn’t.
So shut the f*** up, and only talk to me when I address you.
I can’t say, that I don’t agree with your statement!!
I always feel like White people do this just to prove something! I can say more, but Imma just leave it at that! **DUECES***
It’s impossible for white people to do something good in the eyes of black people.
They make her happy. She has always given the impression of a strong and cold woman but she’s vulnerable on the inside. People like her usually have the biggest hearts.
I smell a rat. That cover pic don’t even look like her. Wow.
She is making a difference in these kids lives! Why hate on her. She didnt have to do what she is doing.
I didn´t know she had 4 adopted people. I thought they were 2 or so.
Why take these kids from their parents instead of just helping them so they can stay with them? I call foul. Africans stop letting this happen time and time again. Its so embarrassing letting Europeans think they are African children descendents. Look how they have tricked multiple continents?
shut up.
Seriously? Their parents are probably dead. ffs.
Madonna is an amazing person.She has a lot of love and i admire her a great deal for that.I wish her abundant blessings from God.
You can definitely see your enthusiasm in the work you write.
The world hopes for even more passionate writers like you
who aren’t afraid to say how they believe. All the time go after
your heart.
