MADONNA - CARLOS LEON: 'LOURDES IS SUFFERING FROM TABLOID RUMOURS'

CARLOS LEON: 'LOURDES IS SUFFERING FROM TABLOID RUMOURS'

MADONNA's daughter LOURDES has been left traumatised by the lurid tabloid claims about the pop star's marriage to GUY RITCHIE - according to the 11-year-old's father CARLOS LEON.
Recent reports have suggested Madonna is splitting from director Ritchie and having an affair with baseball star Alex Rodriguez.
The Material Girl has been in the headlines every day, and it's having an adverse affect on Lourdes.
New York-based fitness trainer Leon has been spending extra time with his daughter, as Madonna prepares for her forthcoming world tour, and he is showering her with affection to compensate for her distress.
Leon tells People magazine, "She's (Lourdes) aware of it, and that's difficult. I just give her more love. Her mother is there for her, Guy is there for her."
And he insists there is no truth to the reports Madonna and Ritchie are splitting: "People have marital problems all the time."
