Madonna has shared some sweet photos of her six children, as she wished herself a Happy Father's Day this weekend.

The 63-year-old Queen of Pop posted some snapshots on Instagram to her 18.3 millions followers, showing off several photos of her with her children to mark the occasion.

Madonna also paid tribute to her dad, Silvio Ciccone, who grew up as an Italian immigrant in Pennsylvania before working to be the first member of his family to graduate.

The singer shared seven photos and videos in her post, which used the line "Happy Father's Day to Me!!".

Madonna started the post with a young photo of her father, who is now 91 years old. "My dear sweet father Silvio".

She then posted a photo of her alongside eldest son Rocco Ritchie, whose dad is her ex-husband, British director Guy Ritchie.

There was also a photo with eldest child Lourdes Leon, followed with her holding hands with 16-year-old David Banda.

Mercy James, also 16, then appeared alongside her mother, before Madonna posted a photo of her youngest daughters - twins Stelle and Estere Ciccone.
