‘All my success is dedicated to my mother, who is my refuge and my greatest gift” – Christiano Ronaldo

“A journalist asks Cristiano Ronaldo:

“Why does your mother still live with you?

“Why don’t you build her a house?”

Cristiano Ronaldo replies :

“My

mother raised me and she dedicated her life for me. She would go to sleep hungry, just to let me eat. We had no money at all. She worked 7 days a week & nights as a maid to buy my first shoes so I could be a player.

All my success is dedicated to her and because of her and as long as she has a life, she will always be by my side, she has everything I can give.

She is my refuge and my greatest gift.”
