Cristiano Ronaldo has announced the passing away of his baby son in a heartbreaking note shared on the footballer's Instagram account.

The sad was signed off on behalf of Ronaldo and his partner Georgina Rodriguez. It read:

"It is with our deepest sadness that we announce the passing of our baby boy. It's the greatest pain any parent 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. Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodriguez."

The tragic news comes only weeks after Ronaldo's partner Rodriguez shared an emotional tribute to the five-time Ballon d'Or winner as they eagerly awaited their new arrivals. "Every day by your side is happy and special," she said on Instagram. "We love you indefinitely. Thank you so much to the best dad in the world."

The two were expecting twins and revealed the pregnancy back in October. 

Rodriguez opened up last year in a casual interview in which she shared how well the family was adjusting to life back in Manchester after the forward's return to Old Trafford.
