Guy Ritchie plans to ‘fart around’ with kids for Xmas

Guy Ritchie says he plans to “fart around in the English countryside” over Christmas after agreeing with ex-wife Madonna that he will look after their children during the festive period.

The film director, who had flown to New York to collect his children for the holiday, said he was looking forward to heading back to the UK.

He said: “I’m here to pick up my kids and I’ll go back and I’ll fart about in the English countryside for the week.

“I imagine I’ll have a bonfire at some point.”

He is said to have thrashed out an agreement with Madge, 51, who looks after the pair’s two children, Rocco, nine, and adopted son David, four, in America full-time, as well as her two other kids, daughters Lourdes, 13, and Mercy, three.

In a US TV appearance on It’s On With Alexa Chung, Ritchie also said he “may be” opening a New York version of his London pub, the Punch Bowl.
