Madonna and ex-husband Guy Ritchie are blasting a recent report about their divorce settlement.

On Monday, a rep for the singer told The Associated Press that the singer, 50, had given Ritchie, 40, between $76 million to $92 million as part of their divorce agreement, adding that "it's one of the largest payouts ever."

Look back at Madonna's biggest scandals.

But in a joint statement Wednesday, the two say, "We have tried to maintain a dignified silence regarding the details of our divorce for the last few months whilst accepting the obvious media interest.

"A misleading and inaccurate statement, specifically in relation to the sums of money involved, was wrongly issued to AP this week.

"The financial details of the settlement will remain private, save to say that both of us are happy with our agreement. Our primary concern, like any co-parents, is the care and well being of our children."

Rosenberg said on Monday that custody arrangements for the couple's children -- Rocco, 8, David, 3, and Lourdes, 12 -- had not been finalized.

Their divorce is expected to become final in January.
