Madonna and her boxer boyfriend Josh Popper have ended their longtime romance.
The former couple met through the 65-year-old superstar’s son, David Banda, who took boxing lessons from Popper, 30, at the Bredwinners gym in New York City.
“Madonna has barely seen Josh in months because her schedule has been so hectic. Things just spiraled out of control,” a source said The sun.
The insider added: ‘There’s really no bad blood – they’re still crazy about each other. Right now their relationship doesn’t feel feasible and they have cooled, but they remain friends.’
Their divorce comes seven months after the Queen of Pop kicked off her highly anticipated The Celebration Tour at London’s O2 Arena in October 2023.

She concluded the tour earlier this month with a massive free concert in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
During their short-lived relationship, Popper continued to battle the mother of six’s serious bacterial infection, which left her in intensive care for several days last summer.
He also accompanied her on trips around the world, including one to Portugal for her birthday last August.
In December, Popper joined her on stage at her concert in Brooklyn.
Last March, she supported him at one of his boxing matches in New York, cheering him on from the crowd.
The pair first became romantically involved in early 2023 following her split from backup dancer Ahlamalik Williams in 2022.
Reports of her split from Popper come after she was spotted hanging out with singer Eric Labat at a star-studded soiree in New York City.
