Madonna shares photo of her and twin daughters with Billie Eilish backstage
The iconic pop superstar is a mom of six.
Madonna enjoyed some fun with her twins Estere and Stella at a recent Billie Eilish concert.
In an Instagram post on Monday, the "Like a Prayer" singer shared a series of photos and videos of herself and her 12-year-old daughters from their outing at Eilish's Madison Square Garden "Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour " gig last week.
One photo shows Madonna and her twins standing alongside Eilish backstage with the group posing for the camera.
Madonna also posted a selfie of her and the twins enjoying the show from the audience, soaking in the moment together.
Madonna is not shy about sharing the spotlight with her children and celebrating her kids' talents and milestones. In addition to Estere and Stella, she is a mom of four other children: Lourdes Leon, Rocco Ritchie, Mercy James and David.
Just days after her 66th birthday on Aug. 16, Madonna shared a photo on Instagram posing with all six of her children.
Earlier in the summer, on July 22, Madonna stepped out with her daughters Estere and Stella for the New York City premiere of "Deadpool & Wolverine."
The trio posed on the red carpet together and also with stars Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman, who star as the titular characters in the Marvel film series.
Madonna wrapped her "Celebration Tour" in May, which included four of her six kids -- Mercy James, David, Estere and Stella. They have not only traveled the world but also performed alongside their superstar mom, an accomplishment Madonna highlighted ahead of their 80th show.
"I think what my children learned the most this year of rehearsing and performing is that if you want to follow your dreams, you have to work hard for them," Madonna captioned a series of Instagram photos of her kids on tour. "And if all of them choose something different later in life, they will never forget this year of blood, sweat, and tears. Nor will I."
Earlier this year, Madonna celebrated her daughter Mercy James' milestone 18th birthday, writing on Instagram, "Beautiful Mercy James. You're already a young woman! Beautiful African Queen!! You Surprised all of us!"
When Rocco Ritchie opened an art exhibit in Miami in early April, Madonna again took to social media to praise his talent.
"So Proud !" Madonna wrote on Instagram alongside photos of herself with her son and his paintings.
Get to know Madonna's six children below.
Lourdes Maria Ciccone Leon
Madonna welcomed her eldest daughter Lourdes Leon with her then-partner Carlos Leon in October 1996.
Lourdes is now a model and has also followed her mom into the music industry as a singer and dancer. Her latest single, "Spelling," was released in 2023 under the stage name "Lolahol."
Rocco John Ritchie
Rocco Ritchie, Madonna's second child, was born in August 2000. His father is Madonna's ex-husband Guy Ritchie, the English director behind such movies as 2019's "The Gentlemen" and 1998's "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels."
Rocco is now a painter, who makes art under the name "Rhed."
In a birthday tribute to Rocco in 2023, Madonna wrote on Instagram, "You have made me worry -- possibly more than any other person on the planet. But You have taken the road less traveled by and that will make all the difference! Nothing gives me more Joy then to watch you grow as an artist!"
David Banda
Madonna adopted her third child David Banda from Malawi in 2006.
David turned 18 in September 2023 and in an Instagram post at the time, Madonna shared that David's tribal name is Senzangakona.
"You light up like the brightest star!" Madonna wrote in part.
Mercy James
Like her brother, Chifundo Mercy James was also adopted from Malawi.
Through her nongovernmental organization Raising Malawi, Madonna opened a children's hospital in Malawi in 2017 called the Mercy James Institute for Pediatric Surgery and Intensive Care at the Queen Central Hospital, which was named after her daughter.
Estere Mwale and Stella Mwale
Madonna's twin daughters Estere and Stella were similarly adopted from Malawi in 2017.
Madonna celebrated the twins' birthday in an Aug. 27, Instagram post, writing, "Happy Birthday to my Twin Virgos ! Estere and Stella!!! I blinked and you are almost teenagers.. Time is a ferocious Beast!! You are both SO FIERCE -talented-opinionated-and full of LIFE. Can’t wait to read the next chapter.. LOVE YOU BOTH SO MUCH !!!"
In October 2023, Estere joined her mother onstage at the opening of her Celebration Tour in London.
The pre-teen vogued to a ballroom interlude in front of the audience and alongside her mom.
