the essential
Madonna is in mourning. Indeed, after the loss of two of her loved ones in the space of a year, the singer must now face the death of her brother Christopher Ciccone, who was 63 years old.
Times are tough for Madonna. The little brother of the American pop star has died at the age of 63, report American media TMZ and DailyMail. Christopher Ciccone died of cancer. The sad news comes ten days after the death of Joan Ciccone, Madonna’s mother-in-law and a year after the death of her older brother, Anthony. The latter had struggled with alcoholism for a long time and had lived on the streets for a while.
Madonna and her brother Christopher have always shared a beautiful relationship. He worked closely with the Queen of Pop, acting as her assistant, dancer, dresser and stylist. Over the years, he also became artistic director for some of her tours, including the Blond Ambition World Tour. They subsequently took different paths.
Quarrel and reconciliation
Madonna and Christopher also went through some tough times together. In particular in 2008 when Christopher published his autobiography, Life with My Sister Madonna, where he revealed the disagreements they may have had. They had since reconciled.
