Guy Ritchie celebrated the big 4-0 earlier this week in the Mayfair district of London at the pub he owns with wife Madonna (The Punchbowl) and it looks like homeboy had himself a great time. Madonna, I understand, did not. According to reports, she bolted from the soiree at 10PM to take the kiddies home and didn’t come back. Here are a few pics of the birthday boy partying and his barretted bride Maddy bolting on his birthday night:

Guy Ritchie spent most of his 40th birthday celebrations without wife Madonna. Along with their children, Madonna joined her husband Wednesday at their Mayfair pub The Punchbowl for a low-key party with Trudie Styler and David Gest, among others. Around 10 p.m., Madonna (who is in the middle of her Sticky and Sweet tour) and the kids called it a night. After helping them to a waiting car, he then returned to the pub to keep partying, London’s Daily Mail reports. He didn’t call it a night until 4 a.m. No doubt Ritchie had fun: He was photographed making goofy faces all night and revelers were heard belting out old-fashioned classics such as “My Old Man’s a Dustman” and “It’s a Long Way to Tipperary,” according to the Daily Mail.

I mean, it makes sense … Maddy is on tour right now, she can’t be partying into the wee hours of the night. I think it’s very cool that she came out to the party at all. I imagine it’s difficult to get Maddy off her regimented routine while she is on tour … it must be lurve if she goes against the grain just for her hubby’s birthday. This is just further proof to me that their marriage is sound and everything is A-OK. Yes?
