I just saw this. I had forgotten all about him even having a son.
The unnamed mother of Cristiano Ronaldo's son is dead, according to the footballer's sister.
Ronaldo welcomed his son last July but vowed to keep the identity of the mother secret. He was rumoured to have paid a surrogate in America, and reports surfaced that the mother was a British student who was paid £10 million to give up rights to her child. Last week, it was claimed that the mother wanted to go back on the deal and return the money so that she could see her child.
Now The Sun has reported that sister Katia Aveiro has told a Portuguese magazine that neither story is true, and that the mother is dead.
"There is no woman calling him," she said. "There is no mother, no telephone calls, nothing. His mother died. The baby doesn't have a mother."
The 33-year-old continued, "The boy is ours. I'm not going to say how he arrived with us, but I guarantee he's my brother's son, my nephew, from our blood. His mother is my mother, who is the person who is with him 24 hours a day.
"He's the most important thing in my brother's life."

I guess the media just didn't cover it like it would have normally due to the Minogue baby being born on the same month.
