Last week, Madonna officially adopted twin girls named Stella and Esther from Malawi and they seem to be adjusting well so far. On the flip side, the girls’ father, Adam Mwale is not adjusting so well and is alleging that he was lied to about the girls’ adoption. He explains his side of the story with the #DailyMail.
“I was told from the start that Esther and Stella were going to a rich woman’s home abroad, that she would give them a good education, then return them to me, to live with me and help all of my family,” Mwale told the Daily Mail. “I accepted they would go abroad, but I was told they would also be coming back.”
There does appear to be some conspiracy surrounding the adoption. Mwale was painted to be an unfit father who ran off and remarried, abandoning the girl’s after his wife, Patricia, died. However, he along with a few witnesses claim that this is far from the truth and that he placed the girls in an orphanage because it was the best thing to do.
Via Daily Mail:
“Kayembe village chief Khwele said that despite being poor, the local community had tried to help. He added, ‘Adam was sad and troubled at that time. We supported him as best we could but no one here has very much.’
Mr. Mwale remarried two years after Patricia’s death and far from abandoning his children, he worked hard to put them through school, visiting the twins regularly at the orphanage.”
Hopefully, Madonna will bring the girls to visit him one day!
