Madonna recently shared her blended holiday celebration with fans on Instagram. The pop icon, 66, posted photos and videos commemorating both Christmas and the first day of Hanukkah with her boyfriend, Akeem Morris, and four of her six children: Lourdes Leon, 28, Chifundo “Mercy” James, 18, and 12-year-old twins Stella and Estere. The family gathered in festive red and black attire, posing in front of a brightly decorated Christmas tree adorned with blue and white bows.

Madonna’s Instagram post, set to Andy Williams’ “It’s The Most Wonderful Time of the Year,” captured the family’s joyous spirit. The photos showcased Madonna in a blue checkered sweater and sheer black gloves, while Lourdes and Mercy opted for stylish black outfits. The twins, Stella and Estere, looked adorable in matching red dresses with silver accents. In addition to the Christmas tree, Madonna also shared a photo of a menorah, acknowledging the first night of Hanukkah. Morris, a Jamaican-born soccer player, appeared in several photos, including some where he sported a cozy grey turtleneck.

This holiday gathering follows a challenging year for Madonna and her family, marked by the loss of her brother and stepmother. In a previous Thanksgiving post, Madonna reflected on the importance of family and the lessons learned during difficult times. She shared photos of a family gathering on a farm, expressing gratitude for the support and love of her children and father. She described the experience as “medicine for the soul.”
