The Like A Prayer singer was hospitalised in June after being found 'unresponsive'

Madonna has made a welcome return to social media to update her fans with how she's doing following her ICU dash last month.

The 64-year-old singer's hospitalisation happened at the end of June, resulting in the postponement of her 40th anniversary tour.


Her manager, Guy Oseary, admitted Madonna had endured "a several day stay in the ICU" after falling victim to "a serious bacterial infection".

She was discharged a few days later and told to rest up at home.

Madonna clearly seems to be on the mend and in high spirits after sharing two new selfies less than a month after her initial hospitalisation.

Taking to Instagram on Tuesday evening, Madonna shared two selfies to her Instagram Story showing her cuddling a purple plush toy.

In one snap, Madonna put her eye-popping red lip on display while the second showed her snuggling into the toy.

She also took to her main Instagram page to share a cryptic post, complete with what appears to be a throwback snap of herself.

Madonna penned the photo of her hugging a rose bush: "'A single rose can be my garden. A single friend my world.'

"Thank You," she signed off before including a love heart and rose emoji to complete the caption.

Seeing Madonna back active on social media sparked a number of pleased reactions from her followers - and from a number of famous faces as well.
