Madonna + Ritchie To Renew Wedding Vows

MADONNA and her filmmaker husband GUY RITCHIE are planning to renew their wedding vows in a Kabbalah ceremony next month (Aug08), according to London reports.

Despite claims the couple's marriage is on the rocks, Madonna and Ritchie will host a Shabbat Nachamu event to show family and friends they are still very much a couple.

A source tells The Sun newspaper. "It's a very important dinner for them - they want everyone to know they are still in love."

The special ceremony will reportedly take place at the celebrity couple's British country estate, with two rabbis flying in from New York to officiate.

The event will coincide with the celebration of the pop star's 50th birthday, according to the publication. Madonna turns 50 on 16 August (08).
