Pop superstar Madonna has canned her two-year bid to adopt a Malawian girl — and will instead support the orphan financially from Britain.
The ‘Material Girl’ star — who turns 50 this year — told aides she has been left “exhausted” by a mountain of red tape.
The singer’s adoption of Malawian son David Banda, 2, was finalized this month. Pals were sure she would be bringing home Mercy, also two, as a sister for him.
But Madonna — who has two other children and is married to British film director Guy Ritchie — feared another two year legal battle.
A family insider said: “Madonna wanted to adopt a boy and a girl.
“But Mercy’s relatives objected and she had a complete turnaround.
“Everyone was stunned. Normally nothing will stop her.
“She now believes David will be the last child she adopts. Instead she will support orphans through her charity.”
