Cristiano Ronaldo has always been considered to be a ladies’ man, given his long and colorful dating history with Hollywood celebrities and supermodels. However, this idea was recently backed by a former Manchester United masseur, Rod Thornley. Thornley made an interesting revelation about how Ronaldo once attempted to get the number of Hollywood star Mark Ruffalo’s former co-star.

Mark Ruffalo and Kimberly Wyatt

American star Kimberly Wyatt shared the spotlight with Mark Ruffalo on the 2004 hit 13 Going on 30. The movie did extremely well at the box office and brought in around $96.5 million. Kimberly, who is a renowned singer and dancer, was also a former member of the girl band, The Pussycat Dolls. Thornley revealed how Kimberly Wyatt and Australian singer and TV personality Dannii Minogue once caught the fancy of Cristiano Ronaldo.

Talking to the Under The Cosh Podcast, Thornley revealed how Ronaldo asked for Dannii’s number while getting a massage.

He said “He [Ronaldo] is having a massage with me and on the TV is the ‘X-Factor’. There was Dannii Minogue, the sister of Kylie Minogue, and he asks ‘Can you get me her number?’” Thornley continued “I’m like ‘I’m a masseur of Man United’.“

“But, I am a man of many means and, within like four or five days, I’ve got Dannii Minogue’s number on my phone. So I hand it to him. Apparently, they went on a couple of dates and whatever. Nothing came of it in the end,” Thornley said. However, the former Manchester United number seven didn’t end his pursuit right here. Thornley further spilled the beans on a crazy deal that Ronaldo made to get Kimberly Wyatt’s number.

Cristiano Ronaldo was desperate to get Kimberly Wyatt’s number

Cristiano Ronaldo’s pursuit of dating an X-Factor singer didn’t end with Dannii Minogue. After the unsuccessful attempt to woo Dannii, Ronaldo pursued the 13 Going on 30 star Kimberly Wyatt. Rod Thornley also disclosed the handsome gift he received from the Portuguese star for his help. Thornley said, “About four or five months later, we’re in March or April, he is leaving for Real Madrid. We all know he’s off at the end of the season.”

He continues, “So, he says to me while the X-Factor’s on again on Saturday night and it was that Kimberly Wyatt from Pussycat Dolls. ‘Can you get me her number?’ he asks.” While Thornley did procure the number, his help was duly appreciated by Ronaldo. Thornley says, “So I’m like ‘Wow, what’s in this for me? I’m getting you girls’ numbers from everywhere and I’m getting nothing out of this.’”

Thornley further said “He said ‘You like my car?’ He had a Porsche convertible. He said ‘When I go to Real Madrid, I’ll sell it to you for half price’. It took me about 10 minutes to get her number. I pass it on to him.” Cristiano Ronaldo certainly didn’t go back on his word to Rod Thornley. The Al-Nassr star sold his prized $75,000 Porsche to Rod Thornley for only $37,500 as his way of thanking Rod for his services.
