Posted September 5, 200618 yr Madonna and Guy Ritchie are planning to adopt an African baby, according to reports. The couple hope an addition to the family will strengthen their marriage, which has been the subject of speculation for some time, according to The People. A source told the paper that they took the decision after trying unsuccessfully to have their own child for some time. Now they plan to visit an orphanage in Malawi next month and bring back a child. "Guy would have liked nothing more than to have had another child with Madonna," said a friend of the pair. "But after months and months of trying this hasn't proved possible yet. Madonna has now fallen for the idea of adopting a child in Malawi." The source also said their marriage is still coming under increasing pressure. "She is still as up for the showbiz lifestyle as ever," he said. "It's hard to keep up with Madonna. For Guy it has become nigh on impossible. "Guy is a very talented film director in his own right but his career has not taken off in anything like the way it looked as though it would. Sometimes he doesn't look like he wants to be around the Madonna entourage. It is not his scene and never has been." source: http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/article/ds36624.html
