Lourdes Leon reveals that since she was preparing she wanted to leave her house because Madonna, her mother, is a controller
Lourdes Leon , Madonna’s first-born , has just made a strong confession: when she was in high school she couldn’t wait to leave her house and become independent from her mother, as she assures that she is a “very controlling” woman.
The model and fashion design student told Interview magazine : “I think my mother saw all these other children of famous people and said ‘My children are not going to be like this.’ Also, I feel that if your parents pay for things, then it gives them influence over you. My mom is such a control freak… she has controlled me all my life that I needed to be completely independent from her as soon as I graduated from high school. ”
In a previous interview with Vogue, Lourdes León had said that, in fact, she is in charge of paying her tuition and she supports herself now that she lives alone, in the Bushwick neighborhood of Brooklyn , New York .
“People think that I am a rich girl without talent to whom they have given everything, but I am not,” he assured that publication.
Madonna’s daughter told Interview that although she does not like being controlled by her mother, she admires “how empowering she has always been for other women and ahead of her time.”
