Exclusive: Madonna is Stubborn

PEOPLE MADONNA

In this installment of "Masterpiece Theater," we learn that Madonna, The Dutchess of Mook Street, is a willful, stubborn woman, driven by a tempestuous desire to overcome; and Guy Ritchie, her broken Silas Marnerish husband, shoulders slouched, defeated -- he of the downcast eyes and the chain of astonishingly bad films, was busy playing pussywhipped nursmaid.

Charmed, I'm sure (The Coirsair sips a chilled grappa di moscato). According to ThisisLondon:

"Madonna and her husband Guy Ritchie had a heated row after she was injured in a riding accident earlier this week - because she was so determined to get straight back into the saddle.

"The singer insisted she wanted only to sit on her horse again."

The high one, no doubt, with the fake Oxbridge accent (The Corsair checks his turby).

"But sources close to the couple say her furious husband told her she had to wait at least a few days to recover."

"Sources close to the couple," that translates roughly as "the servants downstairs."

"Madonna and Ritchie are said to have discussed the matter during her belated birthday dinner on Tuesday night, hours after her release from hospital - where she was treated for three cracked ribs, a broken collarbone and a broken hand.

"'Madonna was going on and on about how she wanted to get straight back on the horse so that she would not be scared of doing it,' said a family friend.

"'But Guy said she was too injured to even be thinking about it.

"'It wasn't one of their major rows, but both were determined to win the argument.' "

In our next episode of Exxon-Mobil Gas-terpiece Theater, Rooco declares himself Zeus.
