The New Testament does not mention her beyond the Gospels.  It should be noted that the view of Mary Magdalene as a prostitute is not found within the Bible or the writings of the early church fathers.  It is possible that she had a son named [[Mark]] who tagged along with her and later wrote the [[Gospel of Mark]], although it seems unlikely that Mark would have described his own mother as "Mary Magdalene."
