Madonna and Christopher: united by art
From their childhood in Michigan to their life in New York, Madonna and Christopher never let each other go. If Guy Ritchie’s former wife declared on Instagram that their bond was “difficult to explain”, she explained this complicity by their common passion: dancing.
“Dancing was a kind of superglue that held us together. Discovering dance in our small Midwestern town saved me, and then my brother came along, and it saved him too,” she wrote. Christopher has worked alongside the international star for a long time. Starting as an understudy dancer, he then became its artistic director, stylist and even interior decorator. “Somehow we always found each other and held hands and kept dancing,” she continued.
