Cristiano Ronaldo ‘invited Miss BumBum model Erika Canela round for dinner after chatting her up on WhatsApp’

THE reigning Brazilian Miss BumBum says Cristiano Ronaldo invited her round for dinner after chatting her up on WhatsApp.
Erika Canela claims he asked her to meet him while she was in Lisbon filming a reality TV show — and he was away from girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez playing for Portugal.
In 2013 The Sun on Sunday told how the ex-Manchester United star allegedly bedded Andressa Urach, another star of Brazil’s beauty pageant.
Andressa accused Ronaldo, 32, of cheating on Russian model ex Irina Shayk and said he seduced her after telling her he dreamt about her rear. Yesterday Erika, 20, said: “I’d heard about Andressa. Maybe he’s got a Miss BumBum fetish.”
Erika, who took the coveted “best bottom” title in November, shared her intimate WhatsApp messages with The Sun on Sunday and admitted: “Meeting Cristiano would have been a dream come true. He’s a man I’d always liked.”
Erika, who has a 42in bum, says she came across a four-day-old message from the randy Real Madrid player last Saturday.
She said: “I thought he’d be more interested in Barbie-type models. I never imagined he’d like a big-bottomed Brazilian woman like me.

“He did all the running. He said in one WhatsApp message, ‘Do you want to come to my house? I want to see you,’ and arranged the pick-up from my hotel in Lisbon.
“Everything seemed fine until I spoke to him from the car and he said that because I was late, he only had a quarter of an hour.
“I’m not a half-hour woman, let alone 15 minutes, so I hung up.

“I felt like an object. Back in Brazil, I discovered he had blocked me on WhatsApp.”
In April 2013 Miss BumBum 2012 runner-up Andressa said she romped with Ronaldo - who has been romantically linked with a number of women over the years - in a Madrid hotel. He called her claims “pure fiction and forgery”.
But his ex Irina later told The Sun on Sunday she felt betrayed after apparently discovering he texted other women behind her back.
He has been dating Spanish Georgina, 21, since June.
Erika, who walked away from her Miss BumBum win with an £18,000 modelling contract, said: “I think a new meeting will be difficult.
“But if I hear he’s no longer dating and he doesn’t think I’m the sort of woman he can enjoy and move on from after 15 minutes, who knows what might happen?”
A bust of the player was unveiled at the renamed Aeroporto Cristiano Ronaldo in Madeira during the week.
