A representative of Madonna on Tuesday denied widely circulating rumours that the singer was divorcing her husband, British film director Guy Ritchie, the dpa reported.
The couple have been married for seven years and are raising three children together. The denial followed reports that inferred that Madonna was having an affair with baseball superstar Alex Rodriguez. Rodriguez is also married and has been spotted late at night leaving Madonna's New York apartment.
"Madonna's husband, Guy, arrived in New York last night to be with his wife and family (not in a last ditch attempt to save his marriage, which does not need saving)," Madonna's spokeswoman Liz Rosenberg told People magazine Tuesday. "There are no plans for Madonna and Guy to divorce."
Rosenberg also dismissed the reports of a relationship between Madonna and Rodriguez.
"Madonna and Alex have the same manager, Guy Oseary. They have met. They know each other, and Madonna took her kids to a Yankees game last week," she said. "There's really not anything to comment on beyond that. It's nothing new that people are airing tons of dirty laundry Madonna's way lately - much of it untrue."
