Losing or gaining a few followers on Instagram is quite common, and it’s no big matter for celebrities. However, bidding farewell to more than 10 million in 24 hours is definitely a huge shock. After making the difficult decision of breaking up with Ronaldo, Irina Shayk lost 11 million followers.
Irina Shayk and Cristiano Ronaldo first met in a campaign for Italian luxury brand Armani Exchange in 2010. They started dating and had an official relationship. During the period time of dating the model, Ronaldo welcomed his first child, Cristiano Ronaldo, Jr., with an anonymous American woman. In an interview with BBC, the well-known footballer said, “It is with great joy and emotion that I inform you I have recently become a father to a baby boy,… With the agreement of the mother, who wishes to remain anonymous, I will have exclusive custody of my son.”
This issue doesn't affect their relationship at all the romance. However, when Irina Shayk and Cristiano Ronaldo called it quits on their five-year romance (2010-2015). Neither Cristiano nor Irina left no comments on their breakup, but it was a rumor that the main reason related to Cristiano’s mom.
Around the time the couple broke up, Shayk saw an incredibly huge drop. In an attempt to completely erase Cristiano from her life, she stated that people who just her as Cristiano Ronaldo’s ex-girlfriend should unfollow her. As a result, the model lost 11 million followers, which accounted for 75% of her base, within 24 hours.
Months after the breakup, Irina fell in love with Bradley Copper. Two years later, they had an adorable daughter. Even though their relationship ended in 2019, they have a great co-parenting relationship. For Ronaldo, one of the greatest soccer players, he met Georgina Rodríguez and they have been together ever since.
