The soccer star and his partner announced the death of their newborn son in April.
Ronaldo also shares 5-year-old Alana with Rodriguez. In addition, the soccer star is the father of 5-year-old twins, Mateo and Eva -- whom he welcomed via surrogate, and 12-year-old Cristiano Jr.
During the interview, Ronaldo also shared how he and Georgina shared the news of their son’s death with their children. Ronaldo shared that he had a conversation with his eldest son, Cristiano Jr., and they cried together but it was a challenge explaining their son's death to the young kids. "Gio arrived home and the kids start to say ‘where's the other baby, where's the other baby?'" he said.
He continued,"The kids understand, we had shouts around the table and they say 'Daddy I did this for Ángel' and they point to the sky. Which I like the most because he's part of their lives. I am not gonna lie to my kids, I say the truth, which was a difficult process." Ronaldo confirmed that he has his son’s ashes that he keeps next to his father's in his home in a chapel.
“It’s something that I want to hold for the rest of my life and not throw into the ocean, into the sea,” he said. “I talk with them every time and that they are on my side. They help me to be a better man, to be a better person to be a better father. And that’s something that I’m really, really proud of the message that they send me, especially my son.”
