Last October, Ronaldo excitedly announced that his girlfriend Georgina was pregnant with twins, a boy and a girl.

However, the Portuguese football legend just said that his baby son passed away shortly after being born.

On Instagram, Ronaldo wrote: “Very sad to announce that our baby boy has passed away. This is the greatest pain that any parent can feel.

Only the birth of our baby girl gives us the strength to live in this moment, with a little hope and happiness.

We would like to thank the doctors and nurses for their care and support with all their dedication.

My entire family is devastated by the loss and wants privacy during this difficult time.

Dear baby boy, you are the angel of the whole family! Mom and Dad will always love you…”

Before Georgina became pregnant, Ronaldo was a father of four children. Cristiano Jr. is 11 years old, twins Eva and Mateo are 4 years old, and Alana Martina is 3 years old.

After the above sad news, it is likely that Ronaldo will miss the epic match with Liverpool at Anfield at 2:00 a.m. on April 20 (Vietnam time).
