Do you mean Ronaldo, the world famous football player? Queer as a daffodil, my dear! Ronaldo loved gallavanting with the boys, but loved admitting it a lot less. Not good for his ‘image’ and his income — the world of football is rather homophobic, after all. Player’s wives and supposed hyper-masculinity are all the rage and the sport sells well around the world including some highly conservative nations.
Silence pays and rumors cost. So a decade or so ago the legend suddenly had a son… he said the mother was an ‘unidentified woman’ who agreed to let him ‘raise the child’ with help of his mother. He played it off as if he had an illegitimate child, mother couldn’t raise it so he bravely stepped up the plate… thus ‘proving’ his heterosexuality. In truth, he discreetly had the boy by IVF with a surrogate mother.
The story of the son broke just around the time when certain images of the famous athlete were leaked to the press, in which he carresses another man’s genitals near a pool. Suddenly no one talked about those anymore — the son was all people talked about, which was exactly the effect what he was trying to achieve.
Fast forward ten years and Ronaldo had another set of twins using IVF, followed by a kid with his current girlfriend. He’s expecting kids number five and six later this year. It is, by all accounts, a happy and blessed family. And Ronaldo is still super gay.
