Madonna and her boyfriend Akeem Morris were spotted landing at JFK Airport on Friday after their family’s getaway to Morocco.
The Like A Virgin singer, 67, showed off her smooth, ageless face as she led Morris, 29, through the crowded terminal wearing a black puffer outfit and carrying an oversized Dolce & Gabbana bag.
While the duo appeared to be in high spirits after their adventurous journey, Morris was trailing behind, packed and carrying additional luggage.
The escape included a visit to Morocco’s Sahara Desert; where they were joined by many of their children, including Rocco, 25, David, 20, Mercy, 19, and twins Stella and Estere, 13.
Madonna drew attention to the fun-filled escape by sharing clips of the family horseback riding in the dunes and images from their camp in the desert.
But even in the midst of the carefree holiday, she used Instagram to post a passionate message in support of the Iranian people, highlighting her activism.

Iran has been rocked in recent weeks by nationwide protests sparked by economic collapse, inflation and political repression, with demonstrators increasingly calling for fundamental change.
Authorities responded with force and expanded internet restrictions.
While casualties are feared to be in the tens of thousands, the country’s judiciary has threatened to execute the protesters.
The Vogue hitmaker wrote: ‘As I reflect on my time in Morocco over the holidays, I think of all the people in IRAN who fought for a much-needed Revolution and were willing to die for what they believed in.
‘We take so many things for granted. Including me. Freedom to travel the world. Wearing what I want to wear. Horseback riding in the desert. To speak freely and not be silenced by punishment, torture and possibly death. To sing a song. Dance. Choosing my own spiritual path, not someone else’s path.
‘Iranian women do not have this freedom. I am with them.
‘The Iranian people have not known freedom for centuries, I cannot claim to truly know the suffering, but my thoughts and prayers are with the Iranian people. Now is the time. Hold on Tight!’
Before adding: ‘I stand with Iran. Let their voices be heard.. FREE IRAN!’
