After giving birth to her first daughter, Lourdes in 1994, by her fitness trainer Carlos Leon, Madonna then met film director Guy Ritchie in 1999, and shortly after had her second child, Rocco. The couple married a in 2000 in Scotland.In 2006 Madonna and Ritchie adopted a Malawian baby boy named David Banda Mwale, but after months of speculation throughout 2008 Madonna confirmed she was to divorce Ritchie. The couple were granted a quickie divorce on 21st November and have agreed to share custody their sons. In June 2009 Madonna adopted her second child, a three-year-old Malawian girl, Mercy James. Madonna was recently in the news for dating Brazilian model Jesus Luz, who at 22, is nearly 30 years her junior.
