Early Childhood

Estere and Stelle’s father was unable to provide for his daughters financially. He chose to bring them to a local orphanage, Home of Hope in Mchinji and would visit them often.
In 2017, their dad consented to Madonna’s adoption of his twin daughters, with the hope of furnishing them with a more promising life. Eventually, the family moved to New York City to live with the pop sensation.
Madonna has two kids of her own and four adopted. One of them is her daughter, Lourdes Maria Ciccone Leon, who was born in 1996, and her son Rocco Ritchie who was born in 2000.
In 2006, she adopted one-year-old David Banda from Malawi, and then in 2009 she adopted four-year-old Mercy James, also from Malawi.
