Cristiano Ronaldo has taken a bold step to ensure the safety of his family, hiring Claudio Miguel Vaz, a no-nonsense bodyguard with a reputation for being tough and intimidating. This decision follows alarming online threats against Ronaldo, his partner Georgina Rodríguez, and their children while the family resides in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The fear of potential danger has led to police involvement, prompting Ronaldo to enlist Vaz, a security expert known for his high-risk protection services.
Vaz, who has previously guarded top athletes and musicians, now oversees the security of the Portuguese football star. His style, in stark contrast to the more composed and professional approach of Lionel Messi’s bodyguard, Yassine Cheuko, is raising eyebrows. Vaz’s bold tactics recently made headlines during Paris Fashion Week when a video surfaced showing him using a bright light to stop photographers from snapping Georgina’s pictures. The act sparked debate online, with many questioning if his methods are too aggressive.
In response to the heightened security concerns, Georgina has also cut back on sharing family moments online, opting for a quieter, more private social media presence. While Ronaldo’s decision to bring in Vaz is seen as a strategic move to protect his loved ones, some members of his inner circle have expressed discomfort with the bodyguard’s forceful demeanor.
