Madonna and Guy Ritchie have made an statement claiming that they are both happy with their divorce settlement.

said: "We have tried to maintain a dignified silence regarding the details of our divorce for the last few months whilst accepting the obvious media interest.

"A misleading and inaccurate statement, specifically in relation to the sums of money involved, was wrongly issued to AP this week.

"The financial details of the settlement will remain private, save to say that both of us are happy with our agreement.
"Our primary concern, like any co-parents, is the care and well being of our children."

The statement comes after Madonna’s US spokeswoman Liz Rosenberg told news agency AP that film director Guy would receive between 76 and 92 million dollars (£49 to £60 million) in the divorce.

She also said he would be given the couple’s country mansion Ashcombe House in Wiltshire and their London pub, The Punchbowl.
