Ronaldo’s dating list includes some massive names. From being rumored to be dating Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton, he dated a few models like Irina Shayk. One of the big-name models was Gemma Atkinson. She was the only British model on Ronaldo’s list. They started dating in 2007 during his Manchester United days. But the relationship was only four months long.
Atkinson recently spoke to Manchester’s Key 103 Radio about the days after they split. She said, “We went to my house and drank cups of tea and watched Only Fools and Horses. Genuinely! I don’t know if he’s into it now, but he seemed to enjoy it,” she added. But her next words were surprising.
Accordingly, many offered her money to talk about her relationship with the Al-Nassr talisman. Atkinson said, “When we did split up, I got offered so much money to speak about him and I didn’t want that,” as she rejected those offers. Things have moved on since then, and both are happy with their current partners.
