Cristiano Ronaldo may be a superstar, but it seems his children are having a hard time at a Saudi school.
According to Burj News, a web portal, Ronaldo’s children were beaten up by their classmates. After leaving Manchester United last year, Ronaldo and his family moved to Saudi Arabia after signing a super deal with Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr.
Burj News cited Ronaldo’s partner, Georgina Rodriguez for the school incidents involving his children. Georgina was quoted as saying: “At school, there are times when they (Ronaldo’s children) get hit and they don’t defend themselves and they sink.
“The other day one of my children arrived who had been hit, I received him and he started crying, ‘Mom!’ And I thought he had caught a hand, I told him what’s wrong with you, what’s wrong with you. ‘A child hit me’, and I told him: ‘Well, and you don’t know how to defend yourself with what you warm up at home?'”.
However, Al-Nassr megastar Cristiano Ronaldo’s partner Georgina Rodriguez took to Instagram to deny all claims that her children were being bullied or mistreated in school, instead declaring that they were content and had found loving friends.
she broke her silence last night on Instagram. She posted a long message on her story, stating what the truth was. “Some media outlets have published some fallacious stories about our children at school and I would like to say that these claims are ABSOLUTELY FALSE. Our children go to a fantastic school with wonderful professionals. We really appreciate the amazing work they do for us as family, as parents and on a personal level.”
“Our children found loving friends and are very happy in their new school in Riyadh. Fortunately, we always had great experiences in all countries and in all schools. We admire each one of them.”
Despite all the negativity circulating about their children, Georgina Rodriguez has given her honest opinion on life in Riyadh so far.
When asked how her family and Cristiano Ronaldo were adapting to life in Saudi Arabia after being in Europe for so long, she admitted that she loves life in Riyadh, even claiming that women are treated well there.
Georgina Rodriguez spoke to Daily Post and said, “It is a marvellous country. I have to admit I went there very conditioned by what people say about it and what you hear, but it is a very safe country, a real family place and they really look after women and their children. People are very generous and really thoughtful.”
After initially living in the Kingdom Suite at the Four Seasons Hotel, Ronaldo and Co. currently reside in a luxurious house in a well-secured compound.
