Courtney McGrailPortugal international and Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo is hailed as one of the greatest footballers in the world. But, it could have been very different as the talented player’s mother has now revealed how she tried to abort her unborn child.
Just weeks after Ronaldo thrilled fans during the recent World Cup, his mother Dolores reveals in a new book that she wanted to have an abortion rather than have her child. After a doctor refused to perform an abortion, she reveals in the book how she attempted to bring about a miscarriage by drinking a mixture of warm beer and exercising intensely.
Ronaldo, who plays for Real Madrid after a spell with Manchester United, suffered World Cup heartbreak this summer as Portugal were knocked out at the group stage. The 29-year-old player is estimated to have amassed a fortune of some €200million.
