Madonna's management team held a crisis meeting on Zoom last Sunday when they decided to postpone her gigs amid fears that she might not have survived the bacterial infection that saw her admitted to intensive care.

MailOnline can reveal that the group - many of whom had worked with Madonna for several decades - were upset at learning that she was found unconscious in New York on Saturday and taken to the ICU, where she was intubated overnight.

They then took the difficult decision to put off the her much-anticipated 40th anniversary tour and shortly afterwards the plans were put in motion.

They were concerned that the opening night of the 35-night music extravaganza in Vancouver on July 15 was just three weeks away.

On Wednesday, her manager Guy Oseary announced that she was suffering from a 'serious bacterial infection', and needed time to recover.

One source said: 'The simple fact is that nobody knew at this point how it was going to all end. Madonna was very ill and in these situations there are always fears for the worst.

'Realising that someone is in intensive care is scary so there was a lot of worry and upset, these people had been her close friends for some time. But they had to be fair on fans, and with the tour getting even closer they took the decision to postpone pretty much immediately, so plans were put in motion.

'Even if she was to recover quickly, she would be very behind in her rehearsing schedule and nobody wanted to put her under any pressure.'

Meanwhile, it can also be revealed that Madonna's daughter Lourdes Leon was in Paris where she attended a party to celebrate a new collection of Vans trainers - a brand that she has close connections with.

The party, which took place in a skate park on the banks of the Seine River, was on Thursday night. Sources say she found out the news of her mother while in the French capital and immediately raced to her bedside.

Overnight, the 26-year-old posted a picture of herself on Instagram where she was plugging the trainer brand, while wearing a revealing corset and low waist jeans.

While it isn't known when the photograph was taken, fans took the snap as a sign that the legendary singer is now on the mend.

Meanwhile, Madonna's eldest son Rocco had just completed a week-long motorbike trip with two friends in Transylvania, Romania. He wrote of his holiday: 'What a crazy place and a crazy trip. First enduro tour and hopefully the beginning of many.' He tagged in his influencer pal Tommaso Gilardoni.

It appears that the trip finished last Saturday - the same day his mother was found unresponsive at her New York apartment.

He made a dash to the US to see her too and was this week seen walking outside her home which overlooks the city's Central Park.

It comes after a family member said the shocking collapse was a wake-up call for Madonna, who believes she is 'invincible' and has been pushing herself extremely hard to prepare for the tour.
