Despite the shocking image of the eternal “bad girl”, Madonna values family very much. Now it’s even smaller. Madonna’s stepmother Joan Ciccone has passed away.
The woman was 81 years old. The cause of death was aggressive oncology, which killed Joan in a very short time. “He will be greatly missed by his family and friends whose lives he enriched with his enthusiasm, joy and love,” his online obituary said.
Madonna’s mother died when the singer was only five years old. Three years later his father remarried. The future star’s relationship with her stepmother was not good, but Joan still fulfilled parental responsibilities for the star and her five brothers and sisters. “Looking back, I think it was very difficult for him. She tried… I’m very close to my father, and I didn’t want to accept the changes in my life,” Madonna said in an archived interview with Larry King.
The singer is survived by his father, Silvio Cicone. He celebrated his 93rd birthday this year. The star could not miss this event and shared a touching photo.
