Authorities turn a blind eye
An unnamed Saudi lawyer told the Spanish news agency EFE: “Although the laws of the Kingdom still prohibit cohabitation without a marriage contract, the authorities have recently started to turn a blind eye and no longer prosecute anyone, even though these laws are applied, if there’s a problem or a crime.”
The attention the Portuguese football star is bringing to the desert state should prompt the authorities to make an exception to the law. explosive.
The couple, who have two children together – CR7 has five in total – have been together since 2016. Ronaldo wants to wait “for the right moment” with the wedding.
Debut against Messi of all people?
No stress with the authorities – so Ronaldo has enough energy to take care of sporting matters. Namely, the Portuguese is still awaiting his debut in the Al-Nassr shirt. This after he had to serve a ban from his time in England at the end of November.

And as is well known, PSG plays: Lionel Messi (35)! Can we enjoy what may be the last duel between the two giants? Soccer romantics will hope so. (mou)
