Cristiano Ronaldo has been enjoying some well-earned time off from his footballing schedule. The Real Madrid player has been posting photographs of himself during some downtime, on holiday with his friends and girlfriend, Irina Shayk.
In one picture the Portuguese footballer cuddles up to his girlfriend Iriana as the two holiday in the Big Apple. "New York, New York with Irina Shayk," was the caption that accompanied the cute photo, which was followed a week later with an image of the pair on a private jet. "Enjoying the vacations" posted Cristiano on his Facebook fan page prompting 758,123 people to 'like' the photo and more than 26,000 to wish the couple a nice holiday.
The pair's hectic schedules mean that quality time together can be rare. They were most recently photographed together watching the tennis at the Madrid Open. Not even the world class tennis could keep the couple from laughing and kissing in the stands as they watched eventual tournament winner Rafael Nadal and his rival David Ferrer battle it out under the springtime sunshine.
The 27-year-old model worked courtside chic in a black maxi dress and black sunglasses and wore her sleek brunette locks loose while Cristiano wore a white t-shirt under a grey waistcoat for the match.
"Vacations, friends, fun," Cristiano simply put along with a photograph of him and his friends sunning themselves on a boat. In the image the 28-year-old sports a relaxed outfit with a white vest, aviator sungalsses and a baseball cap.
Cristiano, who is father to Cristiano Jr, has also been focussing on his charity work during the break from football." I'm glad to be back in Indonesia as Ambassador of the Mangrove Care and to be received by the President," tweeted Cristiano, during a charity trip to Bali.
The forum he is ambassador for aims to raise awareness about the importance of conserving biodiversity and ecosystem of mangroves in Bali.
