Current Ballon d’Or star Cristiano Ronaldo is at the top of his game, with the Portugal international currently a European champion with his country and twice consecutively with his club.
With qualification to the World Cup assured, the 32-year-old attacker will be hungry to add football’s biggest prize to his list of accolades next summer.
Given the form he is in, few gamblers that frequent The Cheshire Cat Slot would bet against the superstar leading his nation to the trophy in Russia.
However, away from the beautiful game, Ronaldo has landed more than a few trophy girlfriends over the years, with the Portuguese star dating some of the planet’s most-beautiful women.
In the early days, the skilful striker dated Jordana Jardel and Isabel Figueira, before getting together with Andorran fashion model Merche Romero, with their relationship starting in 2005 and ending the next year.
Ronaldo was with the Hollyoaks beauty back in 2007, but she later admitted that the pair rarely went out in public together due to the footballer’s fame and the subsequent attention it garnished.
The former United man was also rumoured to have dated Luciana Abreu, Bipasha Basu, Niki Ghazian and Italian-Brazilian actress Karina Bacchi back in 2007. He was also linked to Maria Sharapova.
The next year, Ronaldo moved on to Spanish beauty Nereida Gallardo in 2008, but the pair split in acrimonious circumstances.
Italian model Letizia Filippi, Portuguese scorcher Mia Judaken, Brazilian teacher Gabriela Endringer and Jermaine Pennant’s now-wife Alice Goodwin were all linked to Ronaldo during this time.
The goalscorer was also rumoured to have dated Luana Belletti for a short while, who is sister to former Barcelona and Brazil star Juliano Belletti, and Mario Balotelli’s ex-girlfriend Raffaella Fico.
Also in 2008, the four-time Ballon d’Or winner was linked to American socialite Paris Hilton, with the pair seen together in a Hollywood nightclub before going home together.
The reality television star was pictured with the Portuguese player in Madrid back in 2010, with the pair said to have had a short-lived fling.
Ronaldo’s longest-term girlfriend has been Irina Shayk, with the pair together from late 2010 to early 2015.
The 31-year-old Russian model has gone on to date American actor Bradley Cooper and have a daughter together.
During Ronaldo’s time with Shayk, he was rumoured to have had an affair with Brazilian television personality Andressa Urach in 2013 and Portuguese actress Rita Pereira in 2014.
Little-known actress Diana Chavez also claims to have had a fling with the global star during while he was with Shayk, while after parting company with the Russian he was linked with Spanish television presenter Lucia Villalon.
Ronaldo’s current’s girlfriend is Spanish stunner Georgina Rodriguez, with the duo regularly pictured together and his love interest a regular spectator at the Santiago Bernabeu.
In July, it was confirmed that Rodriguez was pregnant and that the Madrid star was set to become a father for the fourth time, after he confirmed earlier this year that he was father to twins from a surrogate mother.
