Agency Report/
A set of twins have been adopted, from Malawi, by Pop superstar, Madonna.
The girls named Stella and Esther reportedly lost their mother a week after their birth, due to complications from a caesarean-section operation.
The adoption, according to a report on Radar Online, has brought the grand total of Madonna’s brood to six, just like Pitt and Jolie.
“I can officially confirm I have completed the process of adopting twin sisters from Malawi and I am overjoyed that they are now part of our family. I am deeply grateful to all those in Malawi who helped make this possible,” Madonna wrote on a picture with the girls on Instagram.
Madonna’s lawyer explained why she was granted the adoption.
“Madonna has demonstrated over the years that she has a passion for Malawi and her children and therefore the court was satisfied and could not stop the adoption of the twins,” he said.
Madge and their father were in the court for the adoption proceedings and the four-year-old girls, who were born on August 24, 2012, had previously been living in the Home of Hope in Mchinji, reports say.
Madge has two older children adopted from Malawi, Mercy, 10, and David, 11, and two biological children, Lourdes, 20, and Rocco, 16, who is now living with his father, Guy Richie, in London after a bitter custody battle between his parents.
