Madonna sparked engagement rumors with her boyfriend Akeem Morris when she shared several photos with him while wearing a diamond ring on her left finger.
Eagle-eyed fans were quick to notice her shiny new accessory, which she put on full display as she proudly flashed it at the camera in multiple images.
In one photo, she held her new piece of jewelry as she walked down an aisle with her man, 28, after a night out.
Other snaps showed the loved-up duo on the dance floor and the Like a Prayer hitmaker sharing a sweet hug with her daughter.
‘”I’ve been to hell and back and let me tell you, it was wonderful!” she captioned her post. ‘I saw this phrase at a Louise Bourgeois exhibition in Tokyo on New Year’s Eve. She took the words out of my mouth. Being a Mother and Artist. In equal parts, joy and suffering.’
She continued: ‘I can’t imagine living another life. For more love, for happy children, for magical thoughts, for good health and eternal blessings. I give thanks and praise to anyone who is brave, in this life and in all others. In 2025 I raise a glass to anyone who has the courage to be their authentic self.’

Morris is a former college football player and political science graduate from Stony Brook University.
The 28-year-old met the pop icon in August 2022.
They were not romantically linked until July 2024 after Madonna posted photos of them hugging on social media.
The couple recently rekindled their romance just weeks after they reportedly called it quits in October.
Her return marks another chapter in Madonna’s high-profile love life, which included boxer Joshua Popper and dancer Ahlamalik Williams.
She has been married twice.
First to actor Sean Penn from 1985 to 1989 and then to director Guy Ritchie from 2000 to 2008.
In 2022, Madonna said she regretted both marriages.
‘”I’ve been to hell and back and let me tell you, it was wonderful!” he captioned his slideshow. ‘I saw this phrase at a Louise Bourgeois exhibition in Tokyo on New Year’s Eve. She took the words out of my mouth. Being a Mother and an Artist – In equal parts, joy and suffering’

The singer previously said in a 2015 interview with The Sun that she “felt imprisoned” at times during her marriage to Penn.
“I wasn’t really allowed to be myself,” she told the outlet. “You have to find someone who accepts who you are and is comfortable with that.”
Meanwhile, she compared her marriage to Ritchie to a ‘soap opera’ to Details magazine in 2011.
‘It’s definitely not something I regret… In the end the experience was very positive. “I love kids (Rocco Ritchie and David Banda) and that came from that, and I didn’t see any other path to take,” he concluded.
