Last year, Madonnaopened up about the difficulties of parenting.
In January 2023, she toldVanity Fairthat motherhood “has been the most difficult, the hardest battle,” adding that she is “still struggling to understand how to be a mother and do my job.”
“Because, whoever you are, having children and raising them is a work of art,” she told the magazine. “And no one gives you a manual. You have to learn from mistakes. It is a profession that requires a lot of time.”
