Madonna's son Rocco Ritchie stepped out with his new girlfriend at his art exhibition on Thursday night while his music legend mother admired a portrait of herself, which she branded 'remarkable.'
Rocco's sister Lourdes Leon who is a model, singer, and dancer shared a photograph of her brother cosied up to his mysterious new girlfriend on her Instagram, which Rocco later shared on his own page with over 45k followers.
In the picture, the 23-year-old artist and his girlfriend are seen enjoying some drinks. He wears a black turtleneck jumper while his new woman coordinates their outfits and sports a low-neck black top. The couple, alongside their close friends and family, celebrated the launch of Rocco's art exhibition in London on Thursday night.
Guests at the event included Rocco's brother David Bandas, 18, and mother Madonna, 65, as well as Stella McCartney, 52. Rocco, who is the eldest son of Madonna and Guy Ritchie and has established himself as an expressionist painter under the name Rhed, reportedly sold some of his most precious artwork pieces for £45,000.

Taking to Instagram, the 65-year-old pop star shared a series of shots of his collection and penned: "Congratulations Rocco. Your show was remarkable!"
While Rocco prefers to keep himself out of the spotlight, his secret life as an acclaimed artist was unveiled last year by Page Six. His bio on London's Tanya Baxter Contemporary gallery website states: 'Rhed is a young emerging artist whose cultural background is diverse and unconventional.
"His childhood was spent between New York and London which have given him an eclectic and diverse artistic background. Society conflicts such as the obsession with social media, fixation of celebrities & labels and generational problems such as drug abuse and depression are subjects that he approaches in a coded fashion.
'It is almost as if the artist uses the paintings to act as a spokesman for the millennial generation who have overdosed on a toxic society."
Little is known about his dating life, however, back in October last year he was pictured on a date with a mystery brunette. Prior to this, he was linked to model Kim Turnbull in 2017 before they went their separate ways.
