Madonna, 65, 'grows close' with British boxer Richard Riakprohe, 34, just days after ending year-long romance with boxer Josh Popper, 30


The singer, 65, has 'grown close' to Richard, 34, in recent weeks after they met through mutual friends in the fashion industry.

Over their short-lived relationship, Popper remained by the mom-of-six's side battle with a serious bacterial infection, which required her to stay in the ICU for multiple days, last summer. In December, Popper joined the Vogue singer on stage during her Celebration Tour stop in Brooklyn, where they shared a kiss in front of a crowd exceeding 14,000 people.
