Madonna losing her son to her ex-husband....Rocco wants nothing to do with her
Quote:
One of the singer's closest friends last night conceded: 'The fact is Madonna has now accepted Rocco isn't coming home and that his home is now with his dad. Rocco wants to be with his dad but she won't give up being his mother.
'She won't stop fighting to try to make sure Rocco is kept safe and has what he needs. She can't understand why it has come to this. Her world has been shattered.'
The temporary truce comes after weeks of stalemate negotiations between lawyers for Madonna, Ritchie and their son.

The source said: 'It is unbelievable but so far Madonna does not know when she will be able to see her son again, let alone have any say in his future. The situation between her and Guy is toxic.'
The battle for Rocco began in December when the teenager left his mother's world tour after a row over his mobile phone and flew to London to be with Ritchie.
When Madonna requested information about her son's return, Ritchie failed to respond, prompting the star to resort to a Manhattan court where their custody arrangements were made after their divorce in 2008.
The judge ordered that the teenager be returned home. And despite invoking the Hague Convention, which is used in child abduction cases, and subsequent appeals to the court, Ritchie's own lawyers stonewalled any return, defending the teenager's right to make his own decisions about where he lived.
