Judge pleads with Madonna and Guy Ritchie to resolve issue over son Rocco

A High Court judge in London has pleaded with Madonna and her ex-husband, Guy Ritchie, to resolve a legal dispute over the future of their son Rocco, 15.

Mr Justice MacDonald said it would be a “tragedy” if any more of the “fast-receding days” of the teenager’s childhood were taken up by the dispute.

The judge said Rocco was a “very great credit” to his parents. He said it would be better if Madonna and Mr Ritchie could each enjoy his company.
