Rocco Ritchie ‘blocks mum Madonna on Instagram as rift over custody battle deepens’.
After repeatedly cropping up in snaps on his mother’s social media page, it has been claimed that 15-year-old Rocco has taken further steps to cutting her out, by blocking her Instagram account from seeing his photos.
This follows reports that the family were recently embroiled in a legal battle, after the teenager preferred to spend Christmas with his father, Guy Ritchie, in London, rather than with his mother and siblings in New York.
A source told The Sun: “It’s not a great sign that Rocco is blocking his mum on social media, especially after all the rumours that she was embarrassing him with her posts about him.
“It’s even more of a blow because he allows Jacqui and Guy to still follow him and he follows them back. Hopefully this is just a teenage teething problem.”
It’s thought that Madonna and Guy are currently in a legal battle over where Rocco will live permanently, with TMZ reporting that father and son are teaming up in a bid to allow him to move to the UK full-time.
During their marriage, the pair also adopted a son from Malawi, David.
Madonna also has two daughters, Lourdes, from a previous relationship, and Mercy, also adopted from Malawi.
Meanwhile, Guy and his new wife, Jacqui Ainsley, have three children together, Rafael, Rivka and Levi.
