Madonna is one renowned person who, despite her parents’ lack of fame, has been greatly influenced by them.
Although Madonna’s father and stepmother are still living, Madonna’s career has been influenced by the loss of her mother.
Madonna, 61, was actually born Madonna Louise Ciccone, despite the misconception held by people who only know her for her ground-breaking music and provocative live performances.
One of seven siblings, she spent her childhood in Michigan (five full and two half-siblings).
Where is Silvio Ciccone now?
The father of Madonna, Silvio “Tony” Ciccone, is still alive. He remarried Joan Gustafson, their maid, in 1966, just three years after the passing of his first wife. He is one of three sons of Italian immigrants.
They currently jointly own a vineyard where some of their relatives work.
To put it mildly, Madonna did not approve of her father’s choice to be married again.
It took a long time for Silvio and his daughter, Madonna to achieve harmony in their relationship, and only recently have they been able to do so.
Nonetheless, it was because of him that Madonna attempted to mend fences with her brother Christopher after a bitter family conflict for years (in which he called out Sean Penn and Guy Ritchie, not just his sister).
