Ronaldo caused controversy when he did not attend Jota's funeral. |
Jota and his brother were buried at Gondomar Cemetery in Portugal, two days after the tragic car accident in northern Spain. Ronaldo, as captain of the Portuguese national team, played alongside Jota for many years. Therefore, many people present at the funeral shared with the Daily Mail that they were surprised that CR7 did not appear to say goodbye to his teammate.
However, according to Record , this decision partly stems from the personal pain Ronaldo experienced when his father, Jose Diniz Aveiro, passed away in 2005, when CR7 was only 20 years old. At that time, his father's funeral was turned into a "stage" for the press and curious people.
Ronaldo's sister, Katia Aveiro, spoke up to defend her brother. She stressed: "When my father died, instead of being able to mourn in peace, the family had to face a forest of cameras and curious crowds. When the funeral became a circus, you no longer remember who participated. The pain overshadows everything."
Katia called the wave of criticism of Ronaldo fanatical and meaningless, saying that it was truly shameful that TV channels only focused on Ronaldo's absence, instead of respecting the pain of the Jota family's loss.
Ronaldo previously shared an emotional farewell: "Life is so unpredictable. We were together in the national team, you just got married. Sending my deepest condolences to Jota's family, wife and children. Rest in peace Diogo, Andre. We will always remember you."
