More from Malawi

Posted by Sylar On Wednesday, April 18, 2007

MADONNA’S son David waves to pals as she takes him and daughter.

Lourdes to his old orphanage — and announces she wants to look after ALL the kids there.

The Queen of Pop returned to the Home of Hope so the 18-month-old could see his biological dad in Mchinji, Malawi.

But she told the 1,500 children there: “I might take over the orphanage because the pastor here is getting old and about to retire. I love you and I have all your welfare at heart.

“I will do my very best to support you all and take care of you in the same way as David.”

She added: “If Malawians will work hand in hand with me, I will help Malawi.”


The star then asked the kids, who were dressed in the best uniforms, to sing — and they performed a hymn.

The home was set up in 1998 by the Rev Tompson Chipeta, a retired Presbyterian minister who was brought up as an orphan.

Madonna, 48, and David spent half an hour in a classroom with the tot’s dad Yohane, 32.

Orphanage worker Chimbutus, 19, said: “David grabbed his father’s hair and just laughed and laughed.

“Madonna told Yohane that she was proud to be a mother to his son and that Yohane was part of the family.There were tears in both their eyes.”

It had been rumoured that Madonna — who is visiting Malawi without her husband Guy Ritchie or son Rocco, six — wanted to bring home a girl from the orphange.
