As reported by Mirror UK, Dolores Aveiro, the mother of the 38-year-old, has moved to the Middle East country to be reunited with her son weeks after he relocated. Her reunion coincides with Ronaldo moving into a new family home.

The former Real Madrid star did not buy the house but rented it, as there are doubts on how long he will stay in the country after manager, Rudi Garcia made a statement that he will return to Europe and not finish his career in Saudi Arabia.

Dolores made a series of Instagram posts with her son and grandchildren, all taken at the new home, whose exact location has not been revealed.

He has two children with Rodriguez, others from a surrogate mother and the mother of Cristiano Jr has been kept a top secret.
