Cristiano Ronaldo is known for his incredible athleticism on the soccer field, but off the field, he is a dedicated family man.
Recently, the soccer star took to Instagram to celebrate Portuguese Mother’s Day by honoring the important women in his life.
In a touching tribute, Ronaldo shared a carousel of images featuring his girlfriend, Georgina Rodríguez, and his mother, Maria Dolores dos Santos Aveiro. The caption read, “Feliz dia da mãe para as melhores do mundo ❤️,” which translates to “Happy Mother’s Day to the best in the world ❤️.”
The first photo in the gallery captured Ronaldo and Rodríguez posing with all of their children on a boardwalk. The family looked happy and content, dressed in casual attire with the ocean and sunset as a backdrop.
Ronaldo also included photos of himself with his mother, showcasing their bond over the years. One image showed a young Ronaldo sitting on top of a lion statue with his mother, while another photo captured them sharing a sweet moment together.
As a father of five, Ronaldo’s family is a central part of his life. He welcomed his eldest son, Cristiano Jr., in 2010 via a surrogate, followed by twins Eva Maria and Mateo in 2017, also through surrogacy. In the same year, Ronaldo and Rodríguez welcomed their daughter Alana Martina.
Tragically, Ronaldo and Rodríguez recently shared the heartbreaking news that one of their twins, baby boy Angel, had passed away. Despite their grief, the couple found solace in the love of their daughter Bella, who was born as Angel’s twin.
In a poignant Instagram post, Ronaldo expressed his deepest sorrow over the loss of baby boy Angel and the resilience they found in their daughter Bella. This heart-wrenching experience has undoubtedly brought Ronaldo and Rodríguez even closer as they navigate the highs and lows of parenthood.
