"Do you think I'll buy a team and go on vacation? There's a lot of work to do,"

he responded to one of the journalists.

The majority shareholder of the Blanquivioleta team spends a lot of time in Valladolid taking care of the team's affairs. There were many rumors about Ronaldo's possible sale of Real Valladolid but the relegation to second place frustrated the options. However, the latest statements made by the former footballer in an interview on Cadena Ser showed that he would continue betting on reviving the Pucelano team. "All the money that enters the club is reinvested in it, in players, in personnel, in infrastructure or in facilities. In no case is there a distribution of dividends," he said.

He also assured that his goal is to "leave a legacy that persists over time

. "

For the ceremony, Ronaldo had to be baptized days before. Both try to bring the other closer to his professional fields and thus we have been able to see how Ronaldo accompanied his wife to Paris fashion week.

His first wedding was to Milene Domingues, alias Ronaldinha, in 1999, with whom he had his first son, Ronald. After divorcing, he simulated a wedding in a French castle with the model Daniella Cicarelli, from whom he separated shortly after. In 2008 he married María Beatriz Antony, with whom he had two daughters, María Sophia and María Alice. In 2010 he underwent a paternity test after which he was found to be the father of a five-year-old child. The new member of the family was born

as a result of the footballer's affair with Michele Umezu,

a waitress he met during Real Madrid's tour in Japan in the 2004 preseason.

With four children, the footballer expressed in 2010 that he had undergone a vasectomy. However, he also said that he had frozen sperm to "form a football team." Thus,

Celina Locks announced in March 2021 that she was expecting her first child with Ronaldo

, the fifth for the former footballer.
