Madonna's children 'concerned' for pop icon but she 'doesn't want to hear it'

Madonna's kids are said to be 'concerned' for their superstar mum after she shared a series of 'disturbing pics'.

The Frozen singer, 63, caused quite a controversy when photos emerged of her flashing her bum and looking years younger than her actual age.

Many have accused the star of going too far with plastic surgery, although the Material Girl has not confirmed she's had anything done.

Madonna is mum to sons Rocco Ritchie, 21, and David Banda, 16, whom she shares with ex Guy Ritchie; daughter Lourdes Leon, 25, whom she shares with ex Carlos Leon; and daughters Mercy, 15, and twins Estere and Stella, 9.

Despite doting on her kids, the Papa Don't Preach star is said to have worried her brood after her 'altered appearance'.

A source told Heat magazine : "Lourdes, Rocco and the other kids tiptoe around this subject with their mum, but it's reached the stage they're getting concerned about her.

"She isn't ready to give up music - but the whole industry is so youth focused."

The source added that the idea of losing her Madonna 'identity' was unthinkable for the star and so the only hope for change, was "through her kids".

They concluded: "She doesn't want to hear it, but they won't let it ago".

The Mirror has contacted Madonna's reps for comment.

Fans couldn't get over the star's latest pics in which she looks a world away from any normal 63 year old.

One of her 17.7 million Instagram fans wrote: “What’s wrong with her cheeks? Photoshop gone wrong. She looks like an alien bug.”

Another commented: “Your face is very different.. it’s terrible”, while a third accused the MDNA star of looking like plastic surgery veteran Lil Kim.

Not known for her shyness, Madonna regularly posts provocative snaps on social media, including a a slew of naked snaps in protest at Instagram’s ‘no nipple’ rule for women.

The singer also recently came under fire for posting photos in which she smoked cigarettes, posed with knives and mimicked holding a gun.

The star, who is dating toyboy Ahlamalik Williams, 27, is now set to direct a biopic of her life in what should make explosive viewing.

Auditions are currently underway with Midsommar's Florence Pugh and even Madonna's daughter Lourdes said to be in the running to play the superstar.

In January 2022, the singer teased Kanye West's former muse Julia Fox’s possible casting in her biopic on Instagram.

Alongside a pic of the pair she wrote:“Went to dinner with Julia to talk about my movie.."

Julia is reportedly being considered to portray Madge's long-time best friend Debbie Mazar.
