If he hadn’t lost his twin son, Cristiano Ronaldo and his children could have formed a 7-a-side football team.

Cristiano Ronaldo has long been regarded as one of the greatest players the world of football has ever seen. The Manchester United striker’s successful football career has allowed him to live a lavish lifestyle. He can afford everything in life, but nothing is more important to him than his family and children.
Ronaldo was born in 1985 in Madeira (Portugal) with a humble beginning. His father was an alcoholic and died in 2005, at the age of 52. The images of his childhood made Ronaldo always have an aversion to alcohol and after his father passed away, he vowed never to touch alcohol again and started focusing on creating a family of his own.
After dating a number of famous models, Ronaldo suddenly dated Spanish model Georgina Rodríguez in 2017. It is worth mentioning that when the Real Madrid striker at that time met Georgina, the 28-year-old girl was working as an assistant in a Gucci store in Madrid.
Before falling in love with Georgina, Ronaldo had an older son, Cristiano Jr., born in 2010, and twins Eva (girl) and Mateo (boy) born in 2017, both born via surrogacy.

Georgina and Ronaldo then had a child together, Alana Martina, born in 2017, and most recently another set of twins – also a girl and a boy. However, sadly, the baby boy of the twins passed away shortly after birth in the early morning of April 19 (Vietnam time). Ronaldo announced that one of the two children, his son, had passed away.
“I am deeply saddened to announce that our son has passed away. This is the greatest pain any parent can endure. Only the birth of our daughter has given us the strength to get through this difficult time, with a little hope and happiness.”
The news comes just weeks after Georgina posted a touching tribute to the five-time Ballon d’Or winner as they await the arrival of their little angels. She posted on Instagram: “Every day with you is happy and special. Me and the kids love you so much. Thank you so much to the best dad in the world.”
Georgina has previously spoken about how the family have adjusted to life in Manchester following Ronaldo’s decision to return to the club. She told Hola magazine: “I don’t feel like much has changed because we have the same conditions as in Italy and we have a great house. The good thing is that we live closer to the children’s school. In Italy we lived further away.”
