“Of course Cristiano [his eldest son], I talked to him during the day, because he is 12 years old, he knows and understands everything and I had a nice talk with him. We cried together in his bedroom and explained and he’s kind of – he doesn’t understand, he understands, but in the same way he was a little confused.

“The second one at the beginning, on the table, the kids start saying ‘Mom, where’s the other baby, blah blah blah – and you start talking at the beginning because, you know, she had a little tummy. since they had two, it’s a difficult process. And after a week I say: ‘Let’s be frank and be honest with the children, let’s say Angel, whatever the name is, they go to heaven’.

‘It’s better to say it this way and we start using it this way. And the kids always understand when we screamed at the table and they said ‘Daddy, I made this for Angel’ and they pointed to, to the sky… I like that the most because you know it’s part of their life and I won’t lied to my children, to tell the truth, which was a difficult process, but in the same way I am becoming more of a father, more of a friend to them; you and daddy are getting closer, especially me and Georgina.”

Ronaldo has revealed that his partner Georgina Rodriguez has helped him through his difficult return to football following the death of his son.

He added: ‘But because I always have good support from my family. And Georgina said to me, ‘go, go play, go and enjoy what you like. It will help you forget about the situation a little bit.” It was hard, but at the same time, this thing helps you not to think too much about it, even though the training was good. But as you know, football goes so fast and you know, training, matches, even the national team, things go so fast that you don’t even have time to calm down and tell what’s going on, you know, because things go so fast. But it was a good help, Georgina helped me a lot to give me that stability.

Georgina shares a three-year-old daughter Alana with Cristiano, and the Manchester United star also has a son Cristiano Jr (11) and twins Eva and Mateo (4).

‘We help each other. She (Georgina) struggled in her youth, so she will look at life with different eyes, even though she is young, but she suffered. She was born in Argentina, she also has problems with her family, she lived alone. She has an interesting life and also a history… And she helped me a lot. She is very mature for her age, we help each other sometimes, when I’m a little on the ground, she pushes me up and I push her to the other side. So we’re a nice couple and we help each other, so I’m really glad he’s on my side.”

Ronaldo said it was possible they would get married:

He said: ‘I don’t think about it now, but I see in the future that I think I deserve it, she deserves it, but it’s something that doesn’t come into my plans now, but in the future, yes, I want to.’

Georgina and Ronaldo famously met when she was working as a retail assistant in Madrid
