Madonna has revealed that going through her divorce from Guy Ritchie was trying.

In an interview with Rolling Stone, the superstar and mum-of-three - whose split from her filmmaker ex-husband was finalised last December - admitted that it was "challenging", before saying: "I'm very grateful that I had work to do. I may have thrown myself off a building."

She added: "Life is an adjustment - my sons aren't with me right now, they're with their father, and I'm not very comfortable with the idea of my children not living together."

Madonna - whose greatest hits compilation Celebration is out now - hinted that her three-year-old son David could be the next pop star in the family.

"Everybody says that when he watches (my concerts), he stays frozen from beginning to end, and he studies everything, and he knows every dance step," she said.

The 51-year-old also spoke about her multicultural New York home.

"My house is like a Benetton ad," said the Material Girl.

"I have French nannies, my security guards are Israeli, I have assistants from Argentina and Puerto Rico as well as a Japanese assistant and chef, and another chef from Italy. It's wonderful, I love it."
