London, December 15 : Madonna and Guy Ritchie, who were granted a "quickie" divorce last month, are to spend Christmas together as a family for the sake of their children.

The warring couple, locked in a bitter custody battle of their kids, are reportedly set to reunite at the Brit director's 10million-pound Ashcombe House in Wiltshire, England.

The Queen of Pop, who is currently on her `Sticky and Sweet' world tour, will be returning to the country mansion with sons Rocco, 8, and David, 3, and the singer's daughter from a previous relationship, Lourdes, 12.

Madonna's rep confirmed that the singer "is coming back to England for Christmas with the kids."

The Daily Telegraph quoted a source as confirming: "Because of what the kids have been through this year, Guy wants to treat them to a special Christmas."

The `RocknRolla' filmmaker was said to have been granted joint custody of their sons, while Lourdes had to reportedly live with her mum in the US.

The paper suggests that the couple are still in dispute as to where the kids should be raised, with Madonna wanting them to live with her in New York and Guy being eager for Rocco to go to a Brit school. (ANI)
