Mercy James,the three year old Malawian girl adopted by ‘Queen of Pop’ Madonna from Malawi was flown into London while the pop star was still expected in the African country after flying from London earlier.
“A private jet flew in from South Africa and collected her at five minutes to six last evening. She connected to London from Johannesburg at 10:30 p.m,” an airport source told People magazine.
The toddler was accompanied by a nanny,a child nurse and another aide and was taken to Madonna’s London home,reported the magazine online.
Malawi’s highest court granted the adoption on June 12,overturning an April court ruling that the pop star did not fulfill the residency criteria required for adoption.
