Madonna likely to get custody of children?

Wellington, Oct 20 : Madonna will receive custody of her three children in the divorce settlement with soon-to-be ex-husband Guy Ritchie, according to reports being published in Britain.

The Mail on Sunday reported that Madonna and Ritchie, who recently announced their divorce publicly, had reached agreement over custody of their three children, reports the NZPA.

Madonna will have custody of her daughters Lourdes, 12, from a previous relationship, as well as the couple's eight-year-old biological son Rocco and their three-year-old adopted son David, the paper reported.

According to reports, the singer would take the children with her to the US, but Ritchie would have "broad access" to David and Rocco.

Ritchie is expected to receive up to 60 million pounds in the divorce settlement.

The British helmer plans to buy a home in New York so he can see his children, the Mail on Sunday reported.
