MADONNA has taken her bitter custody battle with ex-husband Guy Ritchie to a shocking new level — appearing to brand him a “c**t” on stage.

The pop legend, 57, who is gearing up for a showdown with her ex in court over son Rocco, stunned the audience at her Nashville show with the foul-mouthed rant.

She responded to a fan’s marriage proposal by saying: “I’m looking for a husband, not a c**t. I already married a c**t.”

The shocking outburst came at her Nashville gig on Monday — where she arrived on stage more than two hours late — after her and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels director Guy, 47, fought in court over 15-year-old Rocco.

The teenager had been travelling with Madonna on her international Rebel Heart Tour, but left in December to go live with his father in London.

Madonna appeared in court in New York before Christmas after Rocco refused to come home for the holidays, and the judge ordered him to return to his mother so she and Guy could work out custody.

However, Rocco has so far refused to return to the US and remains in the UK.

Their divorce case was listed as a ‘quickie’ divorce under the names Ciccone M L v Ritchie G S.

The couple, who were married for eight years before divorcing in 2008, will now battle in court again over their son. Her sweary rant came just days after she fiercely denied reports that she was drunk during her Louisville concert.

The singer eventually came on at 10.31pm — two and a half hour later than her 8pm start time.

She wrote online: “’For those people who like to believe all they read I never drink and perform!!! My show is 2 hours and 15 minutes of non stop singing and dancing.”
