Superstar MADONNA is reportedly taking her adopted son DAVID to a tropical island for his first Christmas with his new family.
Madonna and husband GUY RITCHIE initially planned to bring the whole family to the Maldives, but changed their mind when a hotel reportedly demanded $450,000 (£250,000) for them to have the whole place to themselves for one week.
A source close to Madonna tells British newspaper The People, "Madonna has been so happy since adopting David. She decided to make Christmas really special this year as it is his first with his new family.
"She and Guy decided to go somewhere idyllic where they could get away from it all. When it went wrong she was devastated."
The couple are now said to be seeking out an alternative destination, possibly in the Cayman Islands or the Seychelles. (MP/WNSPE/ES)
