NEW YORK, Dec. 15 (UPI) -- Madonna's publicist Liz Rosenberg has confirmed to E! News the U.S. pop star and filmmaker Guy Ritchie have reached a financial settlement in their divorce.

Rosenberg told the entertainment news program the British movie director is to receive between $76 million and $92 million as part of the deal ending their nearly eight-year marriage.

The settlement includes the couple's estate in the English countryside, E! said on its Web site.

An agreement regarding custody of their two children together -- 8-year-old Rocco and 3-year-old David -- had not yet been reached, however, Rosenberg said.
