Gemma Atkinson, a former girlfriend of Cristiano Ronaldo, has recently shared a noteworthy revelation regarding her split from the renowned football icon.
Ronaldo and Atkinson had a brief relationship in 2007 during his first stint with Manchester United.
The 38-year-old football icon, currently playing for Al-Nassr in the Saudi Pro League, was then romantically involved with Russian model, Irina Shayk, some time before his relationship with Georgina Rodriguez.
The love life of the five-time Ballon d'Or winner has always attracted media attention, and years after his four-month romance with Atkinson, the British model has made an intriguing confession.
"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 recounted, as quoted by Sportskeeda.
After their relationship hit the rocks, Atkinson disclosed that she received numerous lucrative offers to discuss the personal details of the Portuguese superstar.
"When we did split up, I got offered so much money to speak about him, and I didn't want that," she added.
Perhaps her revelation is not so surprising, considering the mania across the globe when it comes to Ronaldo and the widespread desire to know more about his life of fame and fortune.
