Cristiano Ronaldo has been slammed by a top
surgeon, who's branded his decision to have
twins by a surrogate, ‘degrading and sad.’
Little Eva and Mateo were born in the US last
month, before being taken home to live in Madrid
with the football ace .
But Portuguese medic Gentil Martins believes his
fellow countryman’s actions mean he should be
stripped of his role model status.
“I consider it a serious crime,” the 87-year-old,
who is a pioneer in the separation of Siamese
twins, told Portuguese newspaper Expresso.
“It’s degrading and sad. Ronaldo is an excellent
athlete, he has tremendous merit but it’s moral
stupor: he cannot be an example.”
Martins also has strong views when it comes to
who he thinks is to blame for the Real Madrid
star’s decision making, pointing the finger at his
mum, Dolores Aveiro.
“Everyone has the right to a mother,” he
continues. "I think one of the main people to
blame for this situation is Cristiano’s mum. That
woman didn’t give her son any education
whatsoever.”
Ronaldo is also father to son Ronaldo Jr, and has
chosen to keep the identity of his mother under
wraps.
"People speculate I was with this girl or another,
or there was a surrogate mother. I have never
told anyone and never will,” he told chat show
host Jonathan Ross.
“When Cristiano [Junior] is going to grow up, I
am always going to say the truth to him because
he deserves it, because he is my son, but I am
not going to say because people want me to
say.”
His girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez is also
rumoured to be expecting their child, having
been pictured with what appears to be a baby
bump.
