Pop icon Madonna is said to have been “one step away from disaster” for a while, with her children set to “stage an intervention” after her scary hospital dash that left her needing intensive care.

Last month, it was revealed that the singer, 64, had developed a bacterial infection and was checked into an intensive care unit. Reports even claimed that Madonna was intubated. But now it has emerged that the singer’s kids, including daughter Lourdes, 26, have staged an intervention for their famous mother due to the way in which she reportedly “punishes herself” and is said to go “overboard” with surgery.
