Madonna's brother Christopher Ciccone dead at 63


Recommended Posts

Posted

Madonna and Christopher reconciled years ago. They were spotted together at Silvio's birthday celebration, and Christopher mentioned in interviews that their relationship was like brother and sister again. Madonna also stood by her father's side at the hospital. Tragically, he passed away from cancer, just like both his biological mother and stepmother. To add to the heartache, he died on the same day as Joan's funeral.

 

My heart goes out to the Ciccone family, especially Madonna and her father, Silvio, losing both a son and a wife in 10 days.

That's terrible. I feel so sorry for the family.

"He had battled prostate cancer for some time. Cancer also took their mom, was partly responsible for her oldest sibling Anthony's 2023 death and recently killed their stepmom, Joan, who died September 24, just two months after a liver-cancer diagnosis."

Her brother, one of her biggest supporters of the early days of her career, had also a huge influence on some of her most iconic work, namely BAT and TGS. She must be feeling horrible right now ❤️‍🩹

I'm glad they reunited since his book. He really did help with her career, being there as a backup dancer during the first era, before being her personal dresser, to eventually directing her best tour The Girlie Show. But most importantly, he was there to comfort her when she was being abused by Sean Penn.

That's very sad, my condolences to M and her family.  It seems like his family knew it was coming due to the nature of his disease, so I hope everyone had time to say goodbye and spend time with him.

Fans are talking about this on the Madonna forums, but it hadn't been confirmed so we weren't quite sure if it was true.

Poor Madonna, losing two brothers and her step Mother within the space of a year is awful.

this reminds of mariah losing her mother and sister at the same time last month

M's tribute. :cries:

May Christopher rest in peace.

Madonna has now made me cry three times. 
1. First time I saw her live 

2. When the hospital sepsis news broke last year 

3. Her Instagram post to Chris. 
 

Her and her family while no strangers to tragedy must really be going through it.  Condolences to them. 
 

rest in peace Christopher. The world thanks you for contributions and collaborations that changed pop culture forever.

RIP. He was such an integral part of her life and career in the 1980s and 1990s. Condolences to M, the Ciccone family, and his husband.
