In case you didn’t know…
Lennard, a British fashion model, recently came forward with allegations against Ronaldo, claiming that the Portuguese forward threatened her with different forms of physical harm.
In a series of tweets, the 33-year-old model stated that the former Real Madrid star had threatened to kidnap her and cause her physical harm back when they were dating. She also showed support to Kathryn Mayorga, who accused football’s poster boy of rape last year.
According to German media outlet Der Speigel, Mayorga claimed that the five-time Ballon d’Or winner had raped her in a Las Vegas hotel room on June 2009, when he was in the US for a vacation with his cousin and brother-in-law.
The heart of the matter
According to his lawyers, Ronaldo has denied that he ever dated Lennard and is now set to respond to the claims with legal action.
Speaking to Metro UK, Ronaldo’s lawyers said:
The team also added that the voice notes posted by Lennard on social media were not that of the Portuguese star.
What’s next?
Ronaldo is already in the midst of an investigation for the supposed rape allegations against him, with his lawyer confirming that police have issued a warrant for his DNA sample. It remains to be seen what course of action will be taken with regards to Lennard’s case.
Meanwhile, the Old Lady face-off against Bologna on 13 January in the Coppa Italia.
