Cristiano Ronaldo is a big family person. The Portuguese star has always had his family close to his heart and by his side at every major event in his life. If it’s not his children, it’s his beloved girlfriend, Georgina Rodriguez, or his mother. The former Real Madrid man does not hide his love for his family, as he always shows them off every chance he gets.
As a seasoned professional, Ronaldo had to miss out on his brother’s wedding anniversary due to his professional obligations at Al Nassr. However, this did not stop the 38-year-old from sending a heartwarming message to the couple, congratulating them on their wedding anniversary.
Cristiano Ronaldo sends congratulation to brother Hugo Aveiro
Hugo Aveiro, Ronaldo’s brother, renewed his wedding vows with his wife, Rubina, and a noticeable absence was Ronaldo himself, who had to miss out on the occasion due to his club commitments. Ronaldo’s club commitments did not hinder him from sending a heartwarming message to his brother on his wedding anniversary, as revealed by his sister Elma Aveiro.
“Congratulations! I hope you’re very happy,” Cristiano Ronaldo’s message read. “I’d love to be there with you in Madeira to celebrate this special day, but we’ll have the opportunity to be together more than once. I didn’t want to miss this opportunity to say that we’re very happy; it’s a long life, and I hope you’ll be together for another 25 years. Love to you all,” he concluded.
The special anniversary celebration took place at Funchal, an Island at Madeira, where Cristiano Ronaldo and his siblings were born. Elma Aveiro kept sharing videos of the event on her Instagram, including one where Rubina entered the altar with their son. “Memorable day. Congratulations, my brother. Another stage in our lives,” the beauty expert captioned the post.
Ronaldo’s decision to stay back in Saudi Arabia did raise a few eyebrows, but the Portuguese star must have thought he made the right decision, and if recent reports are true, he could extend his lucrative $75 million-a-year contract at the club beyond the next World Cup in North America.
Cristiano Ronaldo dedicates his goal to Georgina Rodriguez
Cristiano Ronaldo justified his absence at the family event in Madeira by scoring his 12th league goal of the season in the 2-0 win over Al-Khaleej in the Saudi Pro League on Saturday. This was Ronaldo’s 44th goal for club and country in 2023 in 48 games, which keeps him at the top of the goalscoring chart for the year.
Ronaldo’s goal was dedicated to his beloved Georgina Rodriguez, who was in the stands cheering him on. The Spanish model posted Ronaldo’s goal and gesture on her Instagram with the caption, “Lucky girl,” accompanied by a love emoji.
Ronaldo’s goal was an outrageous strike from outside the box to give Al-Nassr the lead in the 26th minute. Aymeric Laporte added the second almost 15 minutes into the second half to double Al-Nassr’s lead, which was enough to give the club its third straight win.
Despite his good goalscoring run, Ronaldo hit the headlines last week when he mockingly commented on a post criticizing Lionel Messi after his eighth Ballon d’Or win.
