Irina Shayk lost millions of Instagram followers after breaking up with Cristiano Ronaldo
Irina Shayk lost 11 million Instagram followers in just 24 hours after her split from Cristiano Ronaldo. Interestingly, Ronaldo happens to be the most followed person on the social media platform today.
The Russian beauty and the Portuguese footballer first met while shooting an Armani ad in 2010.
They dated for nearly five years during which they traveled the world together. They even posed naked for a sultry cover of Vogue Spain where the athlete stood behind the nude supermodel.
By January 2015, the two already ended their romance.
The supermodel’s reps said at the time,
“We can confirm Irina Shayk has ended her relationship to Cristiano Ronaldo,”
However, they also insisted that their split had nothing to do with the brunette beauty not attending Ronaldo’s mother’s 60th birthday party that New Year’s Eve.
The reps added at the time,
“She has been close with his family throughout the course of their relationship,”
“Any negative rumors with regards to Irina and the Ronaldo family are completely false and have not been a factor in the cause of the spilt.”
Many sources later confirmed that the 37-year-old model ended her relationship with Ronaldo, 38, around the start of 2015. She believed rumors that the former Manchester United player had allegedly numerous affairs during the time of their long-distance relationship.

While Ronaldo called the rumors “pure fiction and forgery,” the runway star hinted at his infidelity in a few interviews with ¡Hola!
She told the Spanish magazine in June 2015 when asked about her love life,
“Of course I prefer to be with someone, but with the right someone,”
“It’s very simple. You have to be faithful to your other half and not have secrets. That’s my rule,”
She insisted that her ideal boyfriend is faithful.
The following year, in December, Irina Shayk told the outlet that both people in a relationship, “have to share the same concept of what it means to be in a relationship and the same energy to create a monogamous relationship.”
At the time when Ronaldo moved on with his now-partner Georgina Rodriguez, Shayk asked her Instagram followers to unfollow her if they “only know her as Cristiano Ronaldo’s ex-girlfriend.”
Within a day, the supermodel’s followers dropped by 11 million.
Irina Shayk then went on to date her now ex-Bradley Cooper in 2019 with whom he shares a 6-year-old daughter Lea De Seine.
After briefly having a fling with Kanye West in 2021, she is now reportedly seeing retired NFL player, Tom Brady.
