Cristiano Ronaldo spoke this week in a long interview with his friend Piers Morgan. Faced with the journalist devoted to listening to him and making him talk, the five-time Ballon d’Or raised different subjects and spoke at length about his partner and future wife, Georgina Rodriguez. But part of his speech was poorly received by certain observers, particularly when he developed the role of his partner.
“What makes her so special to you?” »asked Piers Morgan. And Cristiano Ronaldo responds. “She has so many things that I love. She is unique. She takes care of me, which is very important. She takes care of the family, the house, which takes up a lot of time. If we reversed the roles, I wouldn’t be able to deal with it. Men can’t take care of it. She is very special to me. Apart from his qualities, his superb body, all I love is a person who understands me and who takes care of me and my family. »
Columnist for the L’Équipe channel, Nicolas Vilas commented on the Portuguese’s comments on Friday evening. With a certain disappointment concerning the passage in question, but also that on the American president. “The thing that bothers me the most, and besides there are fan accounts that have clashed with him on X in particular, when he starts talking about (Donald) Trump saying he’s a good guy. The man has always fascinated me more than the player. And then I don’t know what’s happening to him. »
A “masculinist discourse” singled out
“And another thing, his masculinist speech about his wife, when Piers Morgan asks him what’s special about her? Well, she takes care of me very well and that’s very important, the children, the house. I wouldn’t be able to do it, besides men can’t do it, let’s be honest. » And Nicolas Vilas concluded with exasperation after paraphrasing the Al-Nassr player:
“But man, it’s 2025, you have girls! »
During his interview, Cristiano Ronaldo kept repeating that what people thought of him did not matter to him. He also said that winning a World Cup was not “not a dream”.
