Gemma Atkinson Reveals Her First Date With Ronaldo, Just Drinking A Cup Of Tea And Watching TV Series

JAKARTA - Football player Cristiano Ronaldo is known for his glamorous and luxurious lifestyle since he defended Manchester United in the 2003-2009 era. However, who would have thought that behind his wealth, CR7 had a very simple date with Gemma Atkinson.

Quoted from the Daily Star, Thursday, Atkinson, who is a model, had an affair with Ronaldo. Although less than a year, that moment continues to imprint in the 36-year-old woman's memory.

One of the sweet moments that is remembered in Atkinson's memory is when they had a simple date at his house. At that time, Ronaldo and Atkinson even just drank a cup of tea and watched a television series that was far from glamorous.

“Really simple. We just went to my house and drank a few cups of tea while watching television," Atkinson said, quoted by the Daily Mail.

Not only remembering sweet moments with Ronaldo, Atkinson also still remembers how crazy their relationship was because they were always followed by the media who were thirsty for the Portuguese footballer's personal moments.

"With Cristiano, it's crazy. Wherever he went, he was followed by a lot of photographers,” said Atkinson.

Ronaldo's big name always attracts media attention because all his movements become soft food. In fact, there are media who dared to offer Atkinson large amounts of money if they wanted to speak out about the footballer. However, the offer was flatly rejected.

“When we split (in 2007), I was offered a large sum of money to talk about Cristiano Ronaldo. I don't want that," said the Bury-born woman.

Although they still have good memories with Ronaldo, the two have now been separated for a long time and have chosen to live their respective lives happily. After breaking up with Ronaldo, Atkinson had a relationship with another footballer, Marcus Bent and is currently dating a professional dancer named Gorka Marquez.

While Ronaldo, he chose to have an affair with model Georgina Rodriguez. The two have been in a relationship since 2016 and have a daughter named Alana Martina. In fact, now Cristiano Ronaldo and Rodriguez are expecting their baby who is reportedly twins.
