Madonna shares unbelievable footage from son David Banda's epic 18th birthday celebrations in sweet
It is a big day over at Madonna's household, as her son David Banda is officially 18 years old, and he is partying like it!
The Queen of Pop adopted David from Malawi in 2006 when he was 13-months-old; at the time, she was still married to Guy Richie, who she was with from 2000 to 2008.
The 18-year-old is the third of the "Hung Up" singer's six children. She also shares Lourdes, 26, with Carlos Leon, Rocco, 23, with Guy, Chifundo "Mercy" James, 17, who she also adopted from Malawi in 2009, and 11-year-old twins Stella and Estere, who were born in 2012 and adopted by their mom aged five.
After the celebratory weekend for the family, Madonna took to Instagram to share all of the epic details from David's 18th birthday, for which the family partied and danced the night away in their most glamorous fashion ensembles.
During the special night out, David got to show off his serious dance moves, while Mercy and one of her twin sisters took a shot at the DJ booth.
