Madonna reunited publicly with her ex-husband Guy Ritchie for the first time in years. The pop icon and the British film director put their differences aside to show support for their 25-year-old son Rocco’s art exhibition in London on Friday. Photos published by the Daily Mail show Madonna, Ritchie and Rocco in conversation together at the “Talk Is Cheap” show in the English capital. Rocco even documented the moment his parents appeared together for the first time in 17 years on Instagram, writing: “It’s obvious why some people might hold judgment against me, I don’t blame them. However, I am proud to be who I am, but I’m even prouder to have both of my parents together in one room supporting me.” Madonna and Ritchie have reportedly not spoken since their turbulent divorce in 2008, following eight years of marriage. Before the break-up, Rocco moved into Ritchie’s London home as a teenager while Madonna was on her Rebel Heart Tour, resulting in an ugly custody battle that Madonna said left her feeling suicidal at one point. Rocco and Madonna have since rekindled their strained relationship, including appearing on stage together during the singer’s Celebration Tour in Stockholm in 2023.
