In an event that set fans’ hearts racing, Madonna and her ex-husband Guy Ritchie posed together in a photo frame for the first time after 17 years of separation. This emotional reunion occurred at their son Rocco Ritchie’s art exhibition titled “Talk is Cheap” in London, symbolizing parental reconciliation for their children’s future.
Details of Rocco’s Exhibition and Parents’ Presence
The “Talk is Cheap” exhibition was held on December 12, 2025, in a studio warehouse in London’s Soho district. 25-year-old Rocco, now recognized as a prominent artist, displayed his works to the public. Madonna and Guy stood side by side, supporting their son’s artwork. Rocco wrote on Instagram: “I’m proud of myself, but prouder that both my parents are in the same place with me.”
This event marked their first joint public appearance since their high-profile 2008 divorce. Neither parent appeared in the family photo without their current partners Madonna with her boyfriend Akeem Morris and Guy with his wife Jacqui Ainsley were present.
Stunning Style of Madonna and Guy Ritchie
67-year-old Madonna appeared in a bold style: transparent red fishnet stockings, matching top and gloves, tailored leather jacket, and knee-high boots. This trendy combination evoked the signature look of the Queen of Pop. Guy Ritchie opted for a simple look with black trousers, turtleneck, and checkered blazer, while Rocco looked chic and modern in a long leather coat, gray trousers, blue shirt, and black tie.

Turbulent Past: From Marriage to Divorce and Custody Battle
Madonna and Guy were married from 2000 to 2008, with Rocco as their only biological child. Their divorce came with a £50 million settlement for Guy. In 2015-2016, a custody battle over 15-year-old Rocco escalated; Rocco was reluctant to return to New York with his mother, and despite a New York court ruling, he stayed in London.
Madonna recently described this period on the “On Purpose with Jay Shetty” podcast as “the most painful moment of my life”: “I felt like they were taking my child away from me, like a death sentence.” Fortunately, their relationship has improved, and Madonna says she now has a “strong friendship” with Rocco.
Rocco’s Message and Importance of Parental Support
Rocco emphasized in his Instagram post: “Art speaks for itself, talk is cheap.” Madonna wrote: “Art has the power to bring people together, thank you Rocco for this experience.” This event demonstrates the family’s emotional maturity and inspires divorced parents to prioritize their children.
This reunion not only celebrated Rocco’s artistic success but also became a symbol of hope for maintaining family bonds after separation. Fans eagerly await Rocco’s future works and perhaps more family collaborations.
