Madonna’s Son David Banda, 18, Fires Back at Critics: Mom’s Got My Back, I’m Not Hungry

Here is the rewritten article:

Madonna’s son, David Banda, has reassured fans that he is doing well after sparking concerns about his financial situation.

The 18-year-old musician, who is dating model Maria Atuesta, 21, took to Instagram to set the record straight, saying, “My mother is very supportive of me, she has always been supportive of me. I am very happy in my life and I am not living out on the streets, starving!”

David’s clarification comes after he revealed that he has been living a humble life in The Bronx, where he sells guitar lessons online to make ends meet.

David said, “I love it. I’m not on my own, I’ve got my girlfriend. But I love it.” He added, “It’s lovely to experience it being nine o’clock at night, me being hungry and realizing that I don’t have enough money to get food and scavenging. It’s fun to be young.”

To bring in extra funds, David gives guitar lessons online, and prospective students can book lessons off his main Instagram page, which boasts nearly 52,000 followers.

Madonna, who is worth around $600 million, previously gushed about David during an appearance on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon, saying, “You know he makes music now, too. He’s going to end up being one of your guests.”

The singer also talked about her son’s eye for fashion, saying, “He’ll put on any outfit and look swag as you know what. It’s really irritating. He wears my clothes and looks better in them.”

Last year, Madonna faced a “near death” health scare caused by a bacterial infection. In April, she reflected on David and her five other children “saving” her during the health crisis.

He added, 'It's lovely to experience it being nine o'clock at night, me being hungry and realizing that I don't have enough money to get food and scavenging. It's fun to be young'

Along with David, Madonna is mother to Lourdes Leon, 27, Rocco, 23, Mercy, 18, and twins Stella and Estere, 11.

According to The Sun, David also confirmed that his mother has a new romance in her life during an Instagram Live, but did not name the mystery man she is dating.

‘Truth be told, she’s not single. She’s dating a guy…That’s her life. She’ll do what she wants to do,’ David said.
