Cristiano and Georgina, 28, announced they were expecting twins – a boy and a girl – in October last year.
But the Manchester United ace tonight revealed to his fans that their baby boy has sadly passed away.
He said that his newborn daughter is “giving us the strength to live” despite their “deepest sadness.”
Ronaldo tragically wrote on social media: “It is with our deepest sadness we have to announce that our baby boy has passed away.
“It is the greatest pain that any parents can feel.
“Only the birth of our baby girl gives us the strength to live this moment with some hope and happiness.
“We would like to thank the doctors and nurses for all their expert care and support.
“We are all devastated at this loss and we kindly ask for privacy at this very difficult time.

“Our baby boy, you are our angel. We will always love you.”
He posted the devastating image online this evening, alongside translations in Portuguese and Spanish.
Before Georgina fell pregnant, Ronaldo was already a dad of four, with three of his children born to two surrogate mothers.
In October, he and Georgina shared a cute snap of themselves holding their baby scans, captioned: “Delighted to announce we are expecting twins.
“Our hearts are full of love – we can’t wait to meet you.”
HEARTBREAKING LOSS
Ronaldo is a dad to Cristiano Jr, 11, twins Eva and Mateo, four, and three-year-old Alana Martina, who Georgina gave birth to.
And his newborn daughter now makes him a father-of-five.
The Portugal superstar met Georgina in 2016 when she worked in a Gucci store in Madrid for £10 an hour.
It’s believed she caught his eye in the VIP area of a Dolce & Gabbana event.
Georgina has followed the five-time Ballon d’Or winner from Madrid to Turin and then Manchester, as he left Real Madrid for Juventus and United.

Just days ago, she was pictured posing in a pink dress in an old school yellow Corvette.

Ronaldo’s sister Katia Aveiro wrote a heartbreaking tribute tonight after the tragic news came to light.
