The much-discussed identity of the mother of Cristiano Ronaldo's baby son has finally been revealed: she is reportedly an ordinary American waitress.


The Portuguese star became a father on June 17 but the identity of the mother has remained a mystery after she was reportedly paid S$21 million (£10 million) to keep quiet.

Now British newspaper The Sunday Mirror reports that Ronaldo met the unnamed woman in a Los Angeles restaurant last year, and the birth was a result of a one-night stand with the "penniless" waitress.

Ronaldo was reported to have told his friends, "I feel like Boris Becker", the tennis star who fathered an illegitimate child after having sex once in a London restaurant, which resulted in a £20 million settlement and an end to his marriage.

Apparently, the 25-year-old Real Madrid megastar approached the woman at a Los Angeles restaurant with a dirty pick-up line she could not understand.

So Ronaldo resorted to drawing a love heart on a misted-up window near his table and said: "Me, you, kiss!" They then made their way back to a hotel. Nine months later, what do you know, Ronaldo is a father.

Initial reports said Ronaldo had paid a surrogate mother to have his child but now it's reported that the waitress tracked Ronaldo down through his agent, Jorge Mendes, after discovering she was pregnant.

It was agreed that the player would give DNA for a paternity test once the baby was born and provide support for the mother and child if it was his. A friend told the Sunday Mirror: "Cristiano was told the result while he was away at the World Cup."

Ronaldo had announced the birth on what is billed as his official Facebook page earlier this month before revealing he had named the little boy Cristiano Ronaldo Jr.

The Real Madrid star reportedly then used his best friend to help broker an exclusive paternity deal in New York, supervised by his mother Dolores Aveiro, to bring the baby back to Portugal. Ronaldo has apparently told friends that he will not reveal to his son the identity of his mother until he turns 18.

A statement read: "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.

"No further information will be provided on this subject and I request everyone to fully respect my right to privacy (and that of the child) at least on issues as personal as these are."

If the story is indeed true, you've got to say "ouch" for Ronaldo, who's been linked with a string of models and celebrities, including Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian.

Even though the "player" currently earns about S$440,000 per week in wages, paying S$21 million for one night's fun, is, er, no fun.
