It is no sҽcrҽt that Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the biggest personalities in the world. His life has been displayed for the world to see over the years. To be specific, details about his family have always been available on the internet for fans to read. This hasn’t been the case with Cristiano Ronaldo Jr’s mother.
We’ve seen the younger Ronaldo with his dad on many occasions now. But a point to note will be that his mother has never been spotted by the media or anyone from the public for that matter. It looks like Ronaldo was sure to keep her identity a sҽcrҽt.
For those who don’t know, for many years, reports suggested that Ronaldo‘s oldest son was born through surrogacy and his mother’s details would be kept a sҽcrҽt. However, there have been a few contradicting rᴜмors coming up along the way as well. Let’s take a look at every detail we know about Ronaldo Jr’s mother.
Cristiano Ronaldo Jr’s mother was rᴜмoreɗ to be an American waitress in 2010
Ronaldo welcomed his son, Ronaldo Jr, nicknamed ‘Cristianinho’ on June 17th, 2010. This was when he was playing for the Spanish club Real Madrid. When he was born, many claimed that Ronaldo Jr was born through a surrogate. However, that was only until reports of the ‘real’ identity of his mother emerged. According to The Mirror, Ronaldo apparently seduced an American waitress to have a one-night stand with him.
One of his friends mentioned, “It was just yet another one-night stand and Ronnie assumed he would never see her again.”
However, he didn’t expect that she would get pregnant, which prompted the former Real Madrid star to arrange a paternity deal through one of his friends. Ronaldo’s mother, Maria Dolores dos Santos Aveiro, was also present when the deal was agreed upon between the concerned parties. It is claimed that Maria made sure to bring Ronaldo Jr back to Portugal at the time.
When announcing the news to the world, Ronaldo said, “It is with great joy and emotion that I inform I have recently become father to a baby boy. As agreed with the baby’s mother, who prefers to have her identity kept confidential, my son will be under my exclusive guardianship.”
It is not known how much Ronaldo and his family paid to his son’s mother but many sources claim that it could be about $12 million.
Ronaldo Jr’s mother reportedly wanted her son back in 2011
Ronaldo Jr’s mother was reported to be an American waitress at first. Many believed that the pair had met at a restaurant when the soccer star got to know her better. However, a report from Bleacher Report in 2011 doesn’t suggest the same.
It is mentioned that Cristianinho’s mother was a British student who was 20 years old at the time. Despite receiving millions, sources claimed that she wanted her son back just a few months later. “She is often calling him [Ronaldo] late at night. She cried down the phone to him and pleads with him.”
“But he simply leads her on and teases her about Cristiano Ronaldo Junior. She feels like she’s sold her soul. She has this millionaire lifestyle, but can never tell her friends and family the truth about what has happened—and that makes her incredibly lonely,” the source added.
Despite continuous attempts from the lady, Ronaldo reportedly didn’t cave. He stood his ground but it looked like the former Manchester United striker was teasing the mother of his child.
Elma Aveiro told Ronaldo Jr his mother is in heaven in 2014
We all know Ronaldo to be an outspoken and straightforward person. He has never backed down from an opportunity to express himself over the years, even if that attracts plenty of attention from soccer fans. According to a video from Goal 90 and various other reports, Ronaldo’s sister, Elma Aveiro said something to Ronaldo Jr that the soccer icon was not impressed with.
Elma told her nephew that his mother was in heaven. When Ronaldo and Maria Dolores heard this, they instructed Elma never to repeat the same mistake again. It is understandable why the family is being careful about what the young boy knows. After all, he is still a young teenager who has his entire future ahead of him.
Cristiano Ronaldo admitted in 2015 that he doesn’t know when he will tell his son about his mother
In 2015, Ronaldo featured on the Jonathan Ross Show. Among a few other things, he was asked about why he has chosen to keep his son’s mother’s identity under wraps. Ronaldo said, “Some points in life, it’s private, and people have to respect the privacy. When Cristiano gonna grow up, I’m always, always gonna say the truth to him, because he deserves it. I’m not going to say because people want me to say it.”
Together with that, Ronaldo pointed out that his son has the support of his grandmother, and the rest of the family as well. Ronaldo also realized that his son doesn’t have his mother’s presence, but felt that it wasn’t a problem.
The identity of Ronaldo Jr’s mother has always been speculated in the media. Even after more than a decade, we have not been able to figure out who it could be. However, if Ronaldo and his family wish for privacy on the matter, it’d only be fitting that the world fulfills that. This is especially after all that they have gone through with the death of a newborn child, one Ronaldo had with Georgina Rodriguez a few months ago.
