Madonna’s little girl is all grown up!
The “Danceteria” singer, 68, celebrated her daughter, Lourdes “Lola” Leon, turning 30 on Wednesday, October 14, with a sweet Instagram post paying tribute to her eldest.
Madonna shared a series of rare photos and videos of Lourdes on Wednesday, ranging from her childhood to present day, and wrote a sweet message to her daughter.
“Happy Birthday My Lolita! You came to me in a Dream. A fever dream. A Dream called Life. If I tried to write it all down, I would cry a river of tears,” Madonna wrote.
She continued, “Your chin was tilted up in my birth canal, you were looking for the stars you were stuck. After 18 hours of labor and your heartbeat slowing down, an emergency C-section was the only option. Did I mention the helicopters and news crews swirling above our heads on the top floor of the hospital in East LA? You’re [sic] birth was dramatic. Like our lives.”
“Our connection – it is Biblical. When I ask God to explain it to me He tells me- Look in the mirror!” the pop star wrote. “We are Two side sides of the same coin. If what we risk reveals what we value then I would risk it all on you.”
“Never forget who you are- Little Star, shining brighter than all the stars in the sky. Never forget how to Dream, Butterfly,” Madonna added. “Never forget where you come from. From Love. ♥️”
Madonna welcomed Lourdes with ex Carlos Leon in 1996. She later gave birth to son Rocco, 26, whom she shares with filmmaker ex-husband Guy Ritchie, in 2000. Madonna went on to adopt son David, 21, and daughter Mercy, 20, from Mawali in 2006 and 2009, respectively, followed by twin daughters Stella and Estere, 14, in 2017.
Madonna recently collaborated with her eldest daughter on her hit album Confessions II, which was released in July.
“Now that I’ve gotten through it and so many very important things have happened to me along the way,” the pop icon said of the album while speaking to Interview magazine earlier this year. “For instance, the song I wrote with my daughter, Lola. She approached me about writing a song together as a way to heal our relationship. It was a really important moment, and it solidified the idea that now is the time to make this record.”
Confessions II topped the Billboard 200 chart in July, marking Madonna’s 10th No. 1 in her career.
