After weeks of speculation, Madonna has seemingly confirmed her romance with her son's boxing coach, Josh Popper, in a recent social media post.
Taking to her official Instagram stories, the musician, who's set to perform on a series of concerts later this year, shared a photo of herself and her new lover while kissing each other despite having their faces covered.
In the caption, the musician wrote, "Killers who are partying." The pop star was said to be cosplaying Queen Esther by wearing a lace face mask at a Purim party.

Madonna and Popper have been teasing the public with their connection for weeks as they first made headlines earlier this month.
According to insiders who spoke to Daily Mail, the "Material Girl" songstress is reportedly in a relationship with New York City-based boxing coach Josh Popper.
The fitness enthusiast owns Breadwinners gym in the Big Apple and he's 29 years old. The trainer is also the coach of Madonna's son, who had been training for a charity boxing match.
This wasn't the first time the singer shared a photo with her rumored beau online as she posted a series of snaps of herself clinging onto the boxer's arms while her lips seemingly kissed his biceps.

Josh Popper also shared a photo on his account, but the snap featured other people surrounding them.
The boxing coach might be familiar to some people as he recently made an appearance on Bravo's "Summer House" where he hung out with Sam Feher.
After the initial reports about their relationship came out, sources spoke to Page Six to reveal that their relationship might not be true.
Insiders noted that Madonna and Popper are only getting together to promote the latter's fitness center in Manhattan. The reason why the musician allegedly agreed to boost the trainer's gym was that she was impressed with his skills as he trained her son.
"Josh has been training her son and she's impressed. She said she would help him promote the gym," the source added.
Even though Popper is "good-looking," Madonna is said to be not looking for any relationship in the present. However, it appears that the two might have a chance in the future as the source noted that the musician is not ruling out any possibility of a romantic connection.
In other updates, Madonna will be embarking on a series of concerts later this year for her highly-anticipated "The Celebration" tour, which will feature some of her greatest hits from her decades-long career.
The upcoming shows will be kicking off at the Rogers Arena in Vancouver, BC, on July 15, 2023. She will then visit several cities around the world like New York, Los Angeles, Paris, Montreal, and more.
