Retired footballing legend Ronaldo is on daddy duty during sun holiday... while girlfriend Paula suns herself in thong bikini

He might not be a footballer anymore but that certainly doesn't mean that Ronaldo can't holiday like one.
And the former sportsman did just that on Tuesday as he sunned himself during a family break to Ibiza, soaking up the sun with girlfriend Paula Morais and his young daughters.
But the fun-loving star seemed to be more concerned with looking after his little ones than living it up on the party island, playing with them in the sea.

And although the Brazilian star, 35, has become known for his more rotund figure in recent years, he seemed body confident as he wandered around the beach.
But the star was somewhat outshone by his girlfriend, who showed off her trim and toned figure in an orange bandeau bikini with thong bottoms.
Even though they were there to let their hair down, the  couple seemed more worried about the youngsters, making sure that they were having fun during the beach day.

Ronaldo proved what a hands-on dad he is as he picked up his little ones as they paddled in the sea, after Paula made sure that they were topped up with suncream.
And the former footballer seemed concerned about burning himself, wearing a large white floppy sun hat and a large pair of dark sunglasses.
After spending some time on the beach, the family made their way onto a jetty to pick up a boat, looking like happy and relaxed during their family day.

But while Ronaldo looked like he was carving out a new reputation as a family man, rather than a ladies' man, reports have recently emerged that he is looking to buy Brazil's Playboy franchise.
Sources close to the star told Brazil's Extra newspaper he sees the soft-porn publication - Brazil's tenth best-selling magazine - as a lucrative business opportunity.
Friends of Ronaldo - who is nicknamed The Phenomenon in Brazil - believes his 'midas touch' will help rejuvenate the magazine.
He already owns a chain of gyms, a university, a nightclub and millions of pounds worth of real estate.
