A High Court from Malawi yesterday Tuesday Feb, 7th granted the 58-year-old singer the ability to adopt 4-year-old twin girls from the country. The twins mother died just a week after giving birth to them in 2012.

The twins were then taken in and cared for by their grandmother, who, after a while said she could no longer provide for them so they were taken into an orphanage.

Madonna appeared in court with her lawyer alongside the twins’ father and uncle,who both witnessed the adoption.

The 58 year old singer who just added to two new addition to her family, in 2006 and 2009 adopted Malawian children David Banda and Mercy James.
