It looks like
Madonna
and at least some of her brood will be ringing in 2021 in Africa.
As depicted in her
Instagram Stories
and
feed
, Madonna and her children are now in Malawi, the African nation from which she adopted son
David
and daughters
Mercy
,
Stella
and
Estere
. Madonna has hashtagged her videos and photos of the trip “#homecoming.”
In some of the images and
videos
, we see either Stella or Estere — it’s tough to tell the twins apart — sleeping against a plane window as their plane arrives in what Madonna calls the ”
Warm Heart of Africa
.” We also see the family driving through the roads in Malawi, and Mercy on a swing on the grounds of what could be their hotel. Based on the picture, the U.K.’s
Daily Mail
says it’s Kumbali Country Lodge, near the capital of Lilongwe.
It’s not clear if either David or Madonna’s two eldest children,
Lourdes
and
Rocco
, are part of the trip.
Madonna has spearheaded numerous charitable projects in the country via her charity
Raising Malawi
, including establishing the Mercy James Institute for Pediatric Surgery and Intensive Care, and building 14 primary schools in rural areas.
The
Daily Mail
also notes that Americans are still allowed to fly to Malawi despite the pandemic, but they need to be tested 10 days prior to departure and may need to be tested again when they arrive.
