Madonna shared a sweet throwback snap with her mother on Sunday to mark Mother’s Day.
The Queen of Pop, 62, took to Instagram to share an image with her beloved parent Madonna Ciccone, who died in 1963, with the pair of them both sporting a mock-up of her signature ‘Madame X’ eye patches.
Captioning the snap: ‘Madame X has a mother’, Madonna also took to grid to share a black and white snap of herself holding the picture, as well as a plethora of images of her with her children, to mark the occasion.
Like mother, like daughter: Madonna shared a sweet throwback snap with her mother Madonna Ciccone, who died in 1963, on Sunday to mark Mother’s Day
The mother and daughter photo sees a young Madonna sitting on the lap of her mother, who sadly passed when Madonna was just five years old.
In reference to her alter-ego Madame X, the Crazy For You hitmaker superimposed her famous black eye patches featuring a red X onto her baby self and her parent.
Explaining why she wears an eye patch as part of her latest persona, Madonna told Today in 2019: ‘She’s a spy. She’s a secret agent. She travels the world. She changes her identity. She sleeps with one eye open. And she travels through the day with one eye shut. She’s actually been wounded. So she’s covering up one of her eyes’.

‘Does everyone get really f***ed up when they get tattoos? So they don’t, like, feel anything? Should I drink more wine?’ the self-made superstar nervously asked Robbie.
‘I’m ready, yeah. Do you have a bullet for me to bite down on? Ow, ow, oooooh that hurts. Oh my god, I really don’t like you right now.
‘Even if I complain, don’t feel like you have to stop. I’m used to people hurting me and also I’m also used to being in pain. Why do you need a bigger needle? Everything is coming into focus now.’
When Madonna told her 15-year-old son David Banda that it was going to be ‘blood red’ he replied: ‘Blood red, huh? Because this revolution business is a bloody business.’
