Madonna has taken to Instagram to speak out as her custody battle with ex-husband Guy Ritchie continues. The 57-year-old singer and Ritchie are reportedly gearing up to go to court over custody of their 15-year-old son Rocco, who has refused to return to the US since December.
“It’s possible to be an entertainer and a good mother!” Madonna captioned a throwback photo featuring herself and her four children, Lourdes, 19, Rocco, 15, David Banda, 10, and Mercy, 9. “Too bad we don’t live in a society where many encourage strong independent single working moms! The next great frontier!”
The post comes just days after the singer referenced ‘challenging times’, during a concert in Mexico. “We all go through challenging times in our life, and that includes me,” Madonna said (via Billboard).

“I, too, go through challenging times in my life, and right now is one of them. Sometimes I think I can’t do a show. I don’t have the energy, I don’t have the strength. I come out here tonight and I can see your faces, and I look into your eyes and I see so much love and it gives me strength. So thank you. You are rebel hearts. I feel your hearts beating with mine.”
Madonna spent Saturday night with her former husband Sean Penn, attending a charity bash in aid of Help Haiti Home foundation. The former couple split in 1989 after four years of marriage, but are said to still be very close friends.

According to Variety, Madonna paid tribute to her ex in a speech saying: “I want to say Sean, I love you, from the moment that I laid eyes on you. I just wish you’d stop smoking cigarettes.”
The singer was accompanied to the gala by her daughter Mercy James and son David Banda. The event raised $ 6 million for the cause and afterwards Madonna shared a photo of herself and Penn on Instagram writing: ‘Tonight was Fire! thanks to Sean and everyone at J/PHRO!!!!! We raised 6 mullion dollars for Haiti #rebelhearts (sic)’
