The 58-year-old singer has told The Associated Press that she is focused on supporting her 16-year-old following reports that he was arrested for possession of marijuana during a stop-and-search in London in September.

ET claims to have obtained a statement released by the Metropolitan Police in London which says Rocco was arrested on Sept. 28.

The Vogue singer called the state of affairs “a family matter.”

“I love my son very much. I will do whatever I can to give him the support that he needs, and I ask that you respect our privacy at this time,” said Madge.
