Madonna, 67, Poses Topless in Photo Shoot With Age-Gap Boyfriend Akeem Morris
Madonna posted a risqué Valentine’s Day photo series on Instagram this week that features her 29-year-old boyfriend, Akeem Morris, and has drawn attention for its topless final portrait and a string of lingerie looks.
Valentine's Day post includes a blunt caption and a shared selfie
The pop star, described in the post as the “Like a Virgin” singer, wrote beneath the images: “Thief of Hearts…………..Will you be my Valentinnnnnnnneeeeee?, ” and signed it with a heart. The photo fans can’t stop talking about is the final shot: Madonna sits atop a bed with Morris, staring into the camera and covering her breasts with her arms while a cross pendant dangles around her neck. In that selfie Morris is shirtless, smiling at the camera and leaning back on a pillow behind his scantily clad girlfriend.
Inside the shoot: outfits and intimate portraits
The carousel included three striking looks: a lilac lingerie top; a pink silk underwear set paired with fishnet tights; and a black corseted lace number with matching gloves. In one portrait Madonna lies on a bed in light pink stiletto heels, the angle exposing her undergarments. In another she opens a white fur coat to reveal a steely blue satin lining and an elaborately layered lingerie look.
Photographers credited and site prompt on the post
Image credits in the coverage named STEPHANE CARDINALE/Corbis Getty Images for at least some images.

Akeem Morris: former soccer player, frequent Instagram partner
Morris is described as Jamaican-born and a former soccer player. He has been romantically linked to Madonna since 2024. Although the couple has not publicly commented on their relationship, they have attended many high-profile events together, including Paris Fashion Week and the Met Gala on May 5, 2025, where they appeared at "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. Morris frequently posts photos of his pop-singer partner on Instagram, sharing snapshots of their strolls through New York City museums and date nights by the fire.
Earlier racy session: December 'Secret Santa' carousel
The Valentine's Day shoot was not the pair’s first racy portrait session. In December, Morris shared a series of holiday-themed images that began with sweet, simple family shots but transitioned into more explicit portraits. As the carousel progressed, it showed Morris in a Santa suit standing over a blindfolded Madonna in a short, tight red velvet dress; that post carried the caption: "Secret Santa. "
It is unclear in the provided context what the couple’s next public appearance or Instagram post will be.
