Madonna adopts twin girls, Estere and Stelle, from Malawi

The Queen of Pop has confirmed that she has adopted twin sisters from Malawi.

Madonna, who is also mother to Lourdes (20), Rocco Ritchie (16), David Banda (11) and Mercy James (11), announced the exciting news on Instagram this week with the following statement:

"I can officially confirm I have completed the process of adopting twin sisters from Malawi and am overjoyed that they are now part of our family. I am deeply grateful to all those in Malawi who helped make this possible, and I ask the media please to respect our privacy during this transitional time. 🙏🏻 Thank you also to my friends, family and my very large team for all your support and love!"

She then told her Instagram followers that they can donate or volunteer to help the orphanage where her new adopted daughters, Estere and Stelle, grew up:

"There are 650 Orphans at Home of Hope where Estere and Stelle have lived for 4 years since they were 5 days old. Run by the generous and compassionate Rev. Chipeto and his daughter Lucy, Raising Malawi has been working with HOH for over 10 years since I met my son David there. If you would like to get involved by volunteering or donations go to. Raising Malawi.org. Every little bit helps!!!"
