9th January 2024 – (Dubai) Cristiano Ronaldo, the Portuguese football superstar known for his extraordinary skills and handsome physique, has always captivated the hearts of numerous fans. However, getting up close and personal with him has never been an easy task. Yet, in recent days, an internet user from Mainland China claimed that Ronaldo himself approached him for a photo. The question arises: Who is this mysterious individual? Sharing the photo on the Chinese social media platform Xiaohongshu (Little Red Book), the user not only presented the picture with Ronaldo but also provided insights into how he managed to achieve such a feat, leaving many fans envious and curious.
The internet user revealed that he encountered Ronaldo multiple times in the fitness centre and on the beaches of the luxurious Bulgari Resort Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. Their children even had the opportunity to swim and play together. Due to privacy concerns, the user refrained from taking any photographs until a chance encounter at the hotel’s breakfast restaurant. Coincidentally, Ronaldo and his entire family were seated behind them. It was during their departure that Ronaldo took the initiative to ask the user’s son, Lucas, if he wanted to take a photo with him. The internet user praised Ronaldo for his genuine and amiable nature, describing him as a truly nice person.
Upon the exposure of the photo on Xiaohongshu, netizens expressed their admiration not only for the opportunity the user had but also for his respect for Ronaldo’s privacy. Mutual respect was seen as the key to obtaining this cherished moment. It was emphasised that, had the user attempted to take unauthorized photos, the encounter would have likely ended on a sour note. The overall sentiment among netizens was one of envy and appreciation for the respectful interaction between Ronaldo and his fan.
