It seems that Madonna wants to bring her romance with Jesus Luz, her 22-year-old boyfriend, to the next level.
She is said to be planning to take a “commitment ceremony” in front of a rabbi at the Kabbalah Center in Manhattan. The Brazilian model reportedly has helped Madonna recovering from her disappointment after she was recently turned down in her appeal to adopt Malawian Mercy James. “They are totally besotted with each other and he’s really helped Madonna through this tough time,” a source tells London’s Mirror. “It wasn’t that the relationship went off the boil, it was more a matter of Madonna wanting to concentrate on her adoption bid of Mercy and they wanted to keep a low profile while that became the main Luz has been accepted by Madonna’s children 12-year-old daughter Lourdes Leon, 8-year-old son Rocco, and 3-year-old adopted son David Banda. “Lourdes mocks him by calling him The Babysitter, because he is so young. She likes him, but also likes winding him up,” the source adds. Elizabeth Edwards says if she had known her husband John was having an affair rather than her initial belief that he’d had just a single betrayal, she would have strongly resisted his running for president again. Edwards said “I do love him” and also said in a nationally broadcast interview that’s the reason she has remained with Edwards despite his admitted affair with videographer Reille Hunter.
Edwards went on NBC’s “Today” show Monday to discuss “Resilience,” the book she has written about her battle with incurable breast cancer and her discovery last year that her husband had been involved in an affair with Hunter.
