REAL Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo has become a father for the fourth time – or the third, depending upon which way you look at it – now that his long-term girlfriend Georgina Rodríguez has given birth to baby Alana Martina.
Ronaldo's non-identical twins Eva and Mateo are still only five months old, meaning the couple has three babies on their hands, although 'CR7' also has another son, seven-year-old Cristiano Junior.
Other than Alana Martina, the other three children are said to be by surrogate mothers.
Cristiano, 32, has said he hopes to have seven children eventually – his favourite number.
Spanish model Georgina, 22, from Aragón, is said to be doing well, as is her baby daughter, and is looking forward to going home from Madrid's Quirón University Hospital in the commuter town of Pozuelo de Alarcón.
“Alana Martina has just been born! Both Geo and Alana are very well indeed! We're all really happy,” the multiple Ballon d'Or winner wrote in his native Portuguese on Twitter late last night (Sunday).
He included the above photograph on his account, @Cristiano, in which the new baby is just visible in her mother's arms whilst Ronaldo and Cristiano Junior look on proudly.
