Guy Ritchie picking up his sons David Banda and Rocco Ritchie from the Manhattan Kabbalah Centre for a visitation. New York City, USA - 24.01.09

Snatch director Ritchie was the first to arrive at the centre on Saturday (24Jan09), with Madonna and the children joining him shortly afterwards as the family put on a united front.

Ritchie stayed in the building for over an hour, leaving with his son Rocco, eight, and adopted son David Banda, three, while 12-year-old Lourdes - Madonna's daughter from a previous marriage - left later with her mother.

A source tells WENN, "Guy was smiling and in good spirits and seems to still spend time with Madonna as a family. Perhaps he's even still practising Kabbalah."

Last year (08), when Ritchie and Madonna were splitting, the pop star's brother, Christopher Ciccone, blamed Kabbalah for the break-up, and the moviemaker confessed he was puzzled by the faith.

He said, "It's a complicated subject... I don't really understand Kabbalah as a religion or a belief system."

The former couple's divorce was made official earlier this month (Jan09).
