Madonna’s bid to adopt from Lesotho

Pop queen Madonna is rumoured to be considering adoption from another African country

Madonna is rumoured to be considering adopting from Lesotho.

Following Madonna’s controversial quest to adopt Mercy from Malawi, it has now been reported that the Queen of Pop is now considering adoption from the African country, Lesotho.

Madonna’s bid to adopt Mercy is looking likely to fail, the new rumours came about following her recent excursion with David Banda to watch Prince Harry play polo to raise money for his charity Sentebale.

The prince has close links with Lesotho, which has one of the highest AIDS rates in the world, and his charity raises funds for vulnerable children in the country.

Madonna still has an appeal pending for adopting Mercy but has been warned the judges are not likely to rule in her favour.
