After it was revealed that Cristiano Ronaldo paid $375,000 to a woman who accused him of raping her, the football star in an emotional interview to a Portuguese television told that “2018 was the most difficult year on a personal level.”

While successes has been his hallmark on the pitch, he has had his struggles off it. Last year, Juventus star had to deal with rape allegations after former model Kathryn Mayorga filed  a complain in September, alleging she was sexually assaulted by the footballer in 2009 in Las Vegas Hotel.

The case was dismissed by a Nevada court in June, though the filing did not say if Ronaldo had agreed a settlement.

He has denied the accusations, but has admitted he paid Mayorga in an earlier settlement. 

He told the Portuguese channel in an interview, “When people question your honour, it hurts.” “It hurts a lot mainly because I have a big family, a wife and an intelligent child who understands a lot of things.” 

This is a case I’m not comfortable expressing myself on. But once again, my innocence has been proven. It makes me proud.”

The Portuguese star is back in action this week as Serie A season kick starts. He will be looking to put personal issues behind and let his football do the talking. baa
