By the time Madonna hit her mid-twenties, she was already known as the reigning queen of pop. Her record-breaking hits dominated the airwaves, ultimately making the Material Girl one of the most influential recording artists of all time. Today, the superstar is a mother of six, and some of her children are nearly as old as she was when she first forged her path to stardom. In particular, Rocco Ritchie, Made's son with filmmaker and actor Guy Ritchie, is all grown up at 20—and yes, he is every bit as stylish as his dapper dad.

Rocco has been followed by paparazzi since his star-studded christening in Scotland when he was four months old, so it’s no surprise that he has occasionally embraced the limelight. In 2013 and 2015, respectively, he joined his mother as a dancer on her MDNA Tour and Rebel Heart World Tour. More recently he appeared as an extra in Sherlock Holmes, which his dad directed.

Rocco abruptly left the Rebel Heart World Tour, allegedly due to clashes with his famous mom on the road. “Rocco spent most of the second half of 2015 on tour with his mother and got upset about not spending enough time with her,” a source reported to Page Six.

His decision to separate from his mother lead to a heated international custody battle to determine where Rocco would live. Ultimately, he moved to London to live with his father and stepmother, reportedly citing a need for greater stability and privacy than he was afforded on tour with his pop star mom.

Whether he finds himself in New York City or London down the line, he’s sure to have plenty of family around. On his mother's side, he's got a large blended family that includes five full- and half-siblings, both biological and adoptive: Lourdes Leon, David Banda Ritchie, Mercy James, and twins Estere and Stelle Ciccone.

In addition to his two sons with Madonna, Guy Ritchie later had three more children with his current wife, Jacqui Ritchie: Rafael, Rivka, and Levi Ritchie. And for more on the Material Girl's brood, Madonna's Daughter Lourdes Looks Just Like Her in New Ads.
