Madonna Parties in London with Kids Rocco and Lourdes in Lacy Dress

Madonna hit the town in a lacy black dress on Friday, throwing a major party in London the same day she released her 15th studio album, Confessions II. The Queen of Pop wore a sexy short dress with lace and criss-cross detailing, paired with fishnet stockings, knee-high black boots, and bedazzled shades.

Her loved ones came out to support: she was escorted out of London's Nikita private members club by her much younger boyfriend, Akeem Morris, and joined by her kids Rocco Ritchie and Lourdes Leon.

About a decade ago, Madonna's relationship with Rocco was heavily strained when he grew tired of her on-the-go lifestyle and moved to London to live with his father, Guy Ritchie. This sparked a months-long custody battle that ended with Rocco staying with his dad.

Madonna and Lourdes haven't always seen eye-to-eye either, even singing about their relationship turbulence in their new song The Test. In the track, Madonna sings about how life in the limelight affected Lourdes: 'Or how it hurt / I wish I knew / The pain I've caused / My butterfly / Was always being watched.' But now it's all water under the bridge as her children celebrated her album debut with her.

Madonna is also the proud parent of four adopted children — David Banda, Mercy James, and twins Estere and Stella — whom she adopted from Malawi between 2006 and 2017. She shares Lourdes with former personal trainer Carlos Leon.

Now she has put another baby into the world — Confessions II — featuring pop princess Sabrina Carpenter. The London party marked a symbolic end to a long workday and a testament that Madonna, despite her age, continues to command attention and set trends.
