FOOTBALL star Cristiano Ronaldo announced on Sunday that he is the proud father of a newborn son!

The 25-year-old Portuguese player shared via his Facebook and Twitter: “It is with great joy and emotion that I inform I have recently become father to a baby boy. As agreed with the baby’s mother, who prefers to have her identity kept confidential, my son will be under my exclusive guardianship.”

“No further information will be provided on this subject and I request everyone to fully respect my right to privacy (and that of the child) at least on issues as personal as these are.”

Of course in the world we live in, it’s only a matter of time before we find out who the lucky mother is! Wait and see!
