Lourdes attended the Willy Chavarría fashion show, where her dad walked the runway wearing wide-leg trousers and a white shirt paired with a black tie, black shoes, and a belt. 

The father-daughter duo posed for photos after the show, with the pair having a sweet moment and smiling for the cameras. Madonna and Carlos had a brief romance and called it quits seven months after Lourdes was born, but despite the separation the model and singer maintains a good relationship with her dad.

Carlos previously talked to People about his romantic relationship with Madonna and his appreciation for his daughter. “I’m forever grateful to [Madonna],” he said to the publication. “I have no regrets. I wouldn’t change anything. I got the best thing out of that relationship, and that’s my daughter. My daughter is everything to me.”

The personal trainer and actor is known for having a private life. “I’m a lenient dad,” he said to the outlet. “I’m very empathetic, and I’m good at listening to my daughter I’m probably a bad dad when it comes to disciplining her.”
