Madonna taped an interview for the “Oprah Winfrey Show” today via satellite from London, which will go to air on Wednesday.
Madonna said she had been surprised by the attention and controversy, especially surrounding the baby’s father, Yohane Banda. Lewis said Madonna talked about meeting with the father.
“She said she met with the father, she looked him in the eye,” said Lewis. Madonna, according to Lewis, told Oprah that she and Ritchie had followed the country’s customs and had secured both “oral and written approval … and just now the press have gotten to him.”
A consortium of 67 human rights groups has gone to court to try to stop the adoption. A hearing in the case is scheduled for Friday.
Both Bannon and Radecker said Oprah showed photos of the baby, calling him a “precious little boy.” Bannon also said that Madonna denied having been influenced by movie stars Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, who have adopted African children. The pair have adopted two children, including a baby girl from Ethiopia. [Source]
No, of course she wasn’t influenced. Nothing like jumping on the bandwagon of the latest Hollywood fad, and than denying it.
