Call it delayed reaction.
A year after Madonna called him "emotionally retarded," former husband Guy Ritchie said in an Esquire magazine interview that hit the Web on Wednesday that he still loves her, but that she is "retarded" herself.
The 41 year-old British director said Madonna "makes things happen" and works hard at her career.
"And, of course, here you go: I still love her," Ritchie told the magazine. "But she's retarded, too."
The couple finalized their divorce in a U.K. court last November, after eight years of marriage. They have a 9 year-old son together, and also adopted a boy from Malawi.
During an October 2008 concert in Boston, Madonna told the crowd, "This song is for the emotionally retarded. Maybe you know some people who fall in that category. I know I do."
Madonna's "Sticky & Sweet" tour, which wrapped last month in Israel, smashed her own record for top-grossing tour by a solo artist, with $408 million from 85 concerts.
Ritchie, famed for such British gangster films as "Snatch" and "RocknRolla," returns to theaters in December with "Sherlock Holmes," a raucous adaptation of the Arthur Conan Doyle detective stories, with Robert Downey, Jr. in the title role.

He’s just relieved to be rid of her.
Shakespeare knew his stuff. What fools these mortals be.
I don’t know of ANY LIBERAL that is NOT “emotionally retarded”. He’s just speaking the truth. Watch, the new buzz word will be, “I’m emotionally retarded”.
It's clear that "Madonna" is more than just "emotionally retarded".She's morally bankrupt.
“You’re retarded!”
“No, you’re retarded!”
“No, You’re the retarded one!”
“Takes one to know one!”
I prefer to think of myself as “Pretarded”.
“Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels” still rocks though.
MaDonna went Full Retard a long time ago.
Lotta men stuck on sweet with a crazy woman! Only Mad Donna has lots of mad money perhaps Guy Dickie misses too. But they did create a baby so there’s always that connection too. Ritchie ain’t exactly ‘love starved’ post Madonna I would bet.
“Lotta men stuck on sweet with a crazy woman!”
So I’ve noticed.
Many years ago I went out with a lady shrink, once she got tired of my sense of humor she said “You don’t express your emotions and repress your anger.”
My answer... “I’ve mastered bewilderment and despair and you still want more?”
My family’s response...”Since when did you start repressing it?”
