According to reports, pop queen Madonna, currently entangled in nasty divorce proceedings, has lately been showing signs of poor health. After a Kabbalah meeting, Madonna could be seen coughing repeatedly, and her veins were standing out.

The pop superstar, looking quite frail, allegedly tried her best to conceal her deteriorating health behind large sunglasses and a baseball cap. However, she could not hide her repeated coughing fits, and strained looks.

Madonna's failing health appears to be a complete contrast to her 'hale and hearty' looking estranged husband, Guy Ritchie. He has been regularly spotted raising glasses with his mates at his pub.

Even on the set of his movie, Sherlock Holmes, Guy looks fairly relaxed. A source on the film's set said: "Guy is looking great at the moment. He's chirpy with everyone and is really powering on with Sherlock Holmes - he is as passionate about his work as ever."

The source also added that from the looks of the actor, one cannot make out that he is the least affected by what is being termed as a very bitter divorce. In fact, Guy actually appears quite relieved "it is all out in the open."
