Cristiano Ronaldo shows off his abs alongside a buff pal in bizarre picture after welcoming his twins into the world
Real Madrid superstar is finally enjoying his summer holiday after finishing up at the Confederations Cup with Portugal
CRISTIANO RONALDO has split opinion by controversially captioning a bizarre picture on Instagram.
The Real Madrid superstar uploaded a picture of himself and a friend standing topless in a pool.
But he controversially captioned it: "Perfect Match Black And White chocolate".
Ronaldo, 32, was called "racist pig" by one user, with a number of users echoing the comment.
But many insisted there was nothing offensive about his caption.
One warned: "Cristiano you might get some hate for this caption for some reason, people are sensitive. So just be aware."
The snap was followed up with a picture of Ronaldo gazing into the distance while modelling a pair of his own-brand boxers - topless, of course.
His original post echoed pictures he shared with Moroccan kickboxer pal Badr Hari. last year.
Badr was shown holding Ronaldo in his arms by a swimming pool - before he was arrested in January for an assault in Amsterdam.
Showing off his bulging muscles, Ron looks pleased to have a bit of time to himself after helping steer Portugal to the Confederations Cup semi-finals.
Dad-of-three Ron was allowed to leave the Russia tournament early - before their third-place playoff win over Mexico - to celebrate the birth of his twins Eva and Mateo.
In June, reports in Portugal backed up The Sun’s exclusive revelation that the superstar was due to have children via a surrogate mother.
But there had been no official confirmation until Ronaldo was allowed to jet home after the Confederations Cup following a semi-final exit to Chile.

He confirmed on Facebook: “I was with the national team, giving my everything as always, despite knowing my children had been born.
“Unfortunately, we couldn’t reach our main sporting objective, but I am certain we will continue to make the Portuguese people happy.
“The president of the Portuguese Football Federation and the national team manager were considerate towards me and it is something which I will never forget.
“I am very happy to finally be with my children for the first time.”
An official statement said: “The president of the Portuguese Football Association and the manager were informed before the Confederations Cup that the national captain Cristiano Ronaldo had become a father.
“The player, despite knowing about the birth of his children, decided to stay with the national team, which is a gesture we want to highlight.
“The President of the Portuguese Football Association and the manager understand that, having failed to win the Confederations Cup, we had to release the player so that he could finally go and meet his children.”
Proud dad Ronaldo is already a father to Cristiano Ronaldo Jr, known as a Cristianinho, who is now seven.
He is dating Georgina Rodriguez and could be set to be a dad again with the model reportedly five months pregnant.
Last month, the Spanish beauty was pictured with a tummy bump while enjoying a stroll with Ronaldo.
And it has been suggested the couple may be planning a ‘super baby’ after reportedly visiting a clinic which does DNA tests to check the make-up of a possible child.
