Do you remember when Cristiano Ronaldo won lots of ‘good son’ points by kindly gifting his mother a brand new Porsche Cayenne for her 69th birthday? Well, the full-circle story that accompanied it was beautiful.
The soccer superstar made his mom’s birthday one to remember and showed her how much he loves her by gifting her a brand new sports car.
Ronaldo’s sister shared the sweet moment on Instagram, and the video of his mom hugging her grandchild and climbing into her new car has since been viewed millions of times.
The international soccer superstar ensured that this sweet full-circle moment was payback for everything that his mother had done for their family, going from humble beginnings to life-changing luxury.

When people say “remember me when you’re famous”, the person with the most legitimate claim to that is normally your mother.
In the case of soccer superstar-turned-celebrity Cristiano Ronaldo, there is no doubt about the sacrifices his mother has made to help him achieve his dreams – and all her sacrifices and hard work have more than paid off.
On New Year’s Day last year, Ronaldo’s sister shared a video from her mom’s 69th birthday celebrations, where the soccer star handed his mom a very generous present.

In a beautiful full-circle moment, Ronaldo used his wealth from his hard work to pay for a brand new sleek black Porsche Cayenne for his mom to say thank you for all the hard work she put into raising him.
The family threw Ronaldo’s mother, Maria Dolores dos Santos Viveiros da Aveiro, a big party to celebrate her, and it looks as though the new sports car was the V8-powered cherry on top of the proverbial birthday cake.
Ronaldo himself is no stranger to being gifted cars, like this six-figure Rolls-Royce.
Maybe it’s a reminder to all of us that our moms deserve a little more than flowers on their special days!
