The identity of Cristiano Ronaldo Jr’s mum is a mystery
Cristiano Jr – full name Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Júnior – was born on June 17, 2010, and is the football star’s first child. And while we know that Cristiano is his father, his biological mother’s identity has never been revealed, per People magazine.
Ronaldo Sr told Jonathan Ross in 2015, “Some points in life are private and people have to respect the privacy. When Cristiano is going to grow up, I am always going to say the truth to him because he deserves it, because he is my son. But I am not going to say [it just] because people want me to say.”
In a statement, Ronaldo tweeted at the time of the birth, “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. I request everyone to fully respect my right to privacy (and that of the child) at least on issues as personal as these are.”
He plays football just like his dad
