Madonna continues child adoption hunt
The pop superstar launched a legal battle to adopt Mercy, four, in April this year, but her bid was turned down on the grounds that prospective parents have to be resident in the country for 18 to 24 months prior to an adoption.
The singer, who previously adopted a Malawian boy called David Banda in 2006, appealed the ruling and is awaiting a verdict from three High Court judges in the country later this month.
And Madonna has already got plans in place to search for prospective daughter from another African nation according to close sources.
A representative for Madonna indicated: “Madonna is not a patient person, she is used to getting what she wants. She has said she won’t give up on Mercy, but if she’s blocked from adopting her legally, then she will think about trying to adopt another baby.
She has already started looking at other African countries. She has promised Banda a sister and she wants another African child.
The representative insists the star is still hopeful she willbe successful in her bid to take Mercy home, saying, “There is no news on when the ruling is going to happen. We remain hopeful”. — Femalefirst.co.uk
