CRISTIANO RONALDO SPLITS WITH GIRLFRIEND??

The PR company representing Irina
Shayk has played down rumors of a split from
Cristiano Ronaldo by blaming the model's Ballon
d'Or no-show on "work commitments."
Ronaldo won the prestigious prize in Zurich on
Monday, but this time there was no Shayk by his
side as he celebrated claiming the award for
the third time in his career.
Reports on Wednesday then suggested the
Russian model had unfollowed the Real Madrid
forward on Twitter, fuelling speculation of a
split.
But Shayk has never followed Ronaldo on Twitter
or on any of her social media accounts and a
spokeswoman at the 29-year-old's New York-
based PR company told Goal: "[The Ballon d'Or]
didn't fit in with her schedule - it was because
of work commitments. We have no further
comment to make."

Messi had his wife with
him in Zurich but Ms Shayk was nowhere to be
seen
Shayk was in the Maldives on holiday in the
lead-up to the ceremony in Zurich and the
model has been quiet on social media since
Ronaldo's Ballon d'Or win, having posted her
last holiday picture on Instagram on the day of
the gala itself.
The pair have been together since January 2010.
