The Long-Awaited Reunion: Madonna and Guy Ritchie Support Their Son’s Artistic Journey
In a touching moment that has been eagerly awaited by fans, Guy Ritchie and Madonna made their first public appearance together in nearly two decades. The reunion came at the opening of an art exhibition for their son, Rocco Ritchie, who recently graduated from Central Saint Martins School and is now pursuing his career as an artist.
A Family’s Artistic Legacy
The event took place in London’s Soho district, where Rocco presented a series of new works at a gallery space. This exhibition was not just about showcasing Rocco’s talent; it was also a celebration of family unity after years of estrangement.
“It’s obvious why some people might hold judgment against me,” Rocco wrote in the caption to his Instagram post, appearing arm-in-arm with both his parents. “However, I am proud to be who I am, but I’m even prouder to have both my parents together in one room supporting me.”
A Journey Through Strife and Support
Despite their 25-year relationship resulting in two children—Rocco Ritchie, born in 2000, and David Banda, adopted in 2008—the couple separated in October 2008. Their divorce was marked by legal battles over custody of Rocco, with the young man refusing to travel to New York for holiday seasons during his adolescence.
In 2016, eight years after their separation, Madonna and Guy Ritchie settled a dispute out of court, respecting Rocco’s wish to live in the UK with his father. The move signaled an end to their contentious split, paving the way for today’s amicable family gatherings.

Their first public appearance together since 2008, while bittersweet for some, is a milestone in their children’s lives and a reminder that family comes first, even through the challenges of separation and divorce. As Rocco continues to explore his artistry, the support from both his parents stands as a beacon of hope and encouragement.
