Madonna, the queen of pop, is once again making headlines — this time for her sizzling new romance.
At 66, the iconic singer was spotted in Portofino, Italy, hand-in-hand with her much younger boyfriend, Akeem Morris.
Though, at 28, Morris is 37 years her junior, but the significant age gap doesn’t seem to be getting in the way of their affection.
The couple enjoyed a leisurely stroll through the scenic streets of Portofino, which provided the perfect backdrop for their romantic outing. As always, Madonna looked every bit the superstar.
She wore a stunning black thigh-length gown with a dramatic lace overlay, blending her timeless elegance with a modern twist. The outfit showcased her ageless beauty, and she accessorized with layers of necklaces and bracelets to add a touch of sparkle.
Her iconic blonde hair was styled in soft waves that cascaded around her shoulders, and she completed her look with black lace gloves, slip-on sandals, and sunglasses, demonstrating once again that her sense of style remains as impeccable as ever.
At one point, Madonna was seen holding a white umbrella, adding a touch of mystery to her glamorous ensemble.
The pair’s public display of affection sparked immediate attention, with Madonna keeping a firm grip on Akeem’s arm as they strolled together.
Their outing quickly ignited a heated debate on social media. Some fans were excited to see Madonna happy, while others were critical of the age difference between her and Akeem.
One user commented: “Madonna keeps going from man to man. Revolving door style. Why can’t she just be content alone?”
Another sarcastically added: “Who does she think she is? Leo DiCaprio?”
The comparison to Leonardo DiCaprio, who is known for dating younger women, stirred up even more opinions. Many fans jumped to Madonna’s defense, pointing out that men in Hollywood have been dating younger partners for years.
One user wrote: “DiCaprio, Jagger, De Niro, and Pacino are all with much younger women. Let Madonna have her fun too.”
Another fan cheered her on with: “He’s cute, you go, Gurlllll.”
However, not all reactions were supportive. Some critics expressed their disapproval, with one remarking: “How absolutely disgusting! Go find someone your own age. I have my own rule — if they’re young enough to be my child, then no.”
Others joined in with snarky comments like: “Yikes. She’s almost old enough to be his grandma. Lol.”
Another Instagram user questioned the relationship, saying: “I don’t understand why a young man would be interested in a 66-year-old woman. 😬”
Despite the mixed reactions, many fans continue to rally behind Madonna, celebrating her decision to live life on her own terms.
“Happiness comes at you from all places in all ways! ❤️😍” one fan commented, while others applauded her for pursuing love and happiness regardless of societal norms.
Whether the age gap is a point of controversy or celebration, one thing is clear — Madonna is living life her way, and her fans are certainly here for it!
