Family Life: Ronaldo son vs Messi son
Cristiano Ronaldo has four children: Cristiano Jr., Mateo, Eva, and Alana Martina. Cristiano Jr. is Ronaldo’s oldest child and was born in 2010. Mateo and Eva were born in 2017, and Alana Martina was born in 2017. Ronaldo even played when his newly born child died. It is not appropriate to speculate on how an individual might cope with such a personal and tragic event, as everyone reacts differently to loss and grief.
Lionel Messi has three children: Thiago, Mateo, and Ciro. Thiago was born in 2012, and Mateo and Ciro were born in 2015 and 2018, respectively.
Both Ronaldo and Messi have spoken publicly about their roles as fathers and the importance of their children in their lives. Both players are known to be dedicated to their families and are often seen spending time with their children during their free time. It is not uncommon for both players to share photos of their children on social media or to speak about them in interviews.
We know that Messi’s mother used to work as a house help but for me, the story of Messi and his father getting punishment for evading taxes was a shocker.
In 2013, Lionel Messi and his father, Jorge Messi, were charged with tax fraud in Spain. The Spanish authorities alleged that the pair had used companies in Belize, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom to evade paying taxes on Messi’s image rights income between 2007 and 2009.
