The pop icon and her new beau turn heads in Italy as they celebrate her 66th birthday together
Hold onto your seats, because the Queen of Pop has a new man by her side, and this one’s got everyone talking. Madonna, 65, is turning heads once again, but this time it’s not just her iconic fashion choices or her latest chart-topping hit. Nope, it’s her new beau, 28-year-old Jamaican-born Akeem Morris, who’s stealing the spotlight.
The pair was recently spotted arm-in-arm, strolling through the picturesque streets of Portofino, Italy, just in time for Madonna’s 66th birthday bash. But before you start thinking this is a whirlwind romance, let’s set the record straight: Akeem’s been in the picture for a hot minute. In fact, this isn’t the first time they’ve been snapped together. Flashback to August 2022, and you’ll find both Madonna and Akeem gracing the pages of Paper magazine in a steamy shoot that had fans buzzing.
So who exactly is Akeem Morris? This isn’t your typical rags-to-riches story. Born in Jamaica and now living in the heart of New York City, Akeem is more than just arm candy. He’s got brains to match his brawn, holding a degree in political science and government from Stony Brook University. And let’s not forget his athletic prowess-Akeem played soccer during his university days and even took to the field as a forward for Oyster Bay United.
Madonna’s relationship history is no secret, with her most recent fling with 30-year-old Josh Popper fizzling out earlier this year. But it seems Akeem is here to stay, at least for now. The pop icon has been dropping hints about their budding romance on social media, from cozying up on the 4th of July in NYC to sharing intimate snaps from their time together. Akeem’s ex wasn’t too thrilled about the relationship, even taking to TikTok to air out her feelings. But it seems Akeem has moved on, and so has Madonna.
