Madonna Approved To Adopt MercyIn a reversal of their original decision, a judge approved Madonna’s appeal to adopt three-year-old Chifundo “Mercy” James from Malawi. Madonna’s initial bid for adoption was rejected after a judge ruled prospective parents must live in the country 18 to 24 months. During Fridays’ hearing, Chief Justice Lovemore Munlo called the so-called residency requirement an “old law.” Madonna released the following statement to US Magazine through her publicist Liz Rosenberg. “I am extremely grateful for the Supreme Court’s ruling on my application to adopt Mercy James. I am ecstatic. My family and I look forward to sharing our lives with her.” This will be Madonna’s second child that she adopted from Malawi, the first was David, 3 in 2006.
