The case of Kathryn Mayorgi returns once again. The woman, who agreed to the disclosure of her name, accuses Cristiano Ronaldo of rape in a hotel room in Las Vegas in 2009. The football player maintains that the intimate encounter was consensual.
In 2010, Cristiano Ronaldo reached an agreement with Kathryn Mayorga and paid her $375,000 for her silence. As a result, the American did not pursue legal action for some time.
Prosecutors in Las Vegas began an investigation into the matter in 2018. Kathryn Mayorga decided to pursue her rights before the court nearly a decade later. In 2022, the case was dismissed due to lack of sufficient evidence.
However, Cristiano Ronaldo still can't catch a breath, as the events from Las Vegas resurface. Kathryn Mayorgi's lawyers are currently demanding even 25 million dollars from Cristiano Ronaldo for breaking the silence clause and incurring damages.
An American court heard the woman's representatives and their arguments for reconsidering the rape lawsuit against Cristiano Ronaldo. However, the media did not expect a decision on whether or not to resume the case immediately after the special session.
Cristiano Ronaldo remains an active footballer, who you can still watch on the Portuguese national team. The 38-year-old player has played in his career at Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Juventus, among others. Currently, he is a player for Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia, with whom he signed a massive contract. He remains one of the most recognizable figures in football.
