Celebrity couple will not be publicans in spite of widespread rumours
Madonna has denied stories that she has bought a London pub with husband Guy Ritchie.
The singer’s UK publicist told ThePublican.com reports that the couple had spent around £2.5m on the Punchbowl in Mayfair were “not true at all”.
Spokeswoman Barbara Charone said: “There’s no truth in it at all. I told the papers that on Friday but they decided to run it anyway. That’s the tabloids for you.”
False reports that the Material Girl singer was to start a new life as a publican spread like wildfire over the weekend – even making it into papers in India and San Francisco.
But, although the couple often enjoy a drink in the Punchbowl, they will remain firmly on the customers’ side of the bar, the publicist said.
