Madonna has apparently taken her relationship with lover Joshua Popper to the next level, introducing him to her son Rocco Ritchie over the weekend.
Rumours arose earlier this year that the music singer, 65, was dating boxer Joshua, 29, after several photos of them together surfaced, however neither has formally acknowledged the romance.
Her new romance comes after she ended her five-month relationship with ex-lover Andrew Darnell, 23, at the end of February.
According to The Sun, during her recent birthday festivities, the Like A Virgin hitmaker travelled to Lisbon with her loved ones, where Joshua and Rocco are alleged to have met.
Madonna’s eldest kid is Rocco, whom she shares with ex-husband Guy Ritchie. According to the article, her children Lourdes, 26, David Banda, 17, Mercy James, 17, and 10-year-old twins Stella and Estere were all there.
The pop singer posted a lot of photos and videos from her vacation in an Instagram Reel, captioning them ‘it’s lovely to be alive.’
The photographs and videos show Madonna in a variety of stunning clothes while sightseeing in Lisbon, including riding horses along a picturesque beach, dancing, and listening to live music.
In the birthday post, she wrote: ‘It’s great to be Alive………….. and Amazing to Be able to put on my dancing shoes and Celebrate my Birthday! 🎉🎉🎉
‘I’m So Grateful. Thank you Lisbon and to all who made it possible!’
It comes after she was hospitalised due to a severe bacterial illness.
The music legend recently reflected on her hospitalisation and stated that she was “fortunate to be alive.”
‘Love from family and friends is the best Medicine. One month out of the hospital and I can reflect,’ she wrote.
‘As a Mother you can really get caught up In the needs Of your children and the seemingly endless giving……….. But when the chips were down my children really showed up for me. I saw a side to them I had never seen before. It made all the difference.’
She continued: ‘So did the love and support from my friends. If you zoom into this Picture I am holding You will see A Polaroid taken by Andy Warhol of Keith Haring wearing a jacket with Michael Jackson’s face painted on it. A perfect triangle of Brilliance.Artist who touched so many lives including my own.

‘And Thank you to all my angels who protected me and let me Stay to finish doing my work!’
