I’m, you know, I have four children now and I’d like to think I’m a good mother. So yeah, I mean I feel a great sense of satisfaction in many areas of my life.”

As for her former life in London, where she lived with ex-husband Guy Ritchie, the pop star said she misses some aspects of the British city.
“I miss being able to walk around my neighborhood," Madonna said. "It’s much more mellow and laid-back and relaxed than Manhattan."
