A 72-year-old glamour model has spoken out on rumours that Ronaldinho shot a nude shower video with her after the actress posted an X-rated clip that went viral
A 72-year-old glamour model has broken her silence after rumours Ronaldinho took a nude video of her in the shower.
Argentine actress Graciela Alfano, who became an adult sensation in her homeland during the late 1970s and early 1980s following her appearances on television, posted a picture of her with the Brazilian football icon, adding the caption “with the idol”.
Later on, she uploaded a racy video of her naked in a steamy shower, prompting fans to speculate the former Barcelona star was the man behind the camera.
However, Graciela – a judge on Bailando por un Sueno – the Argentine version of the British reality TV competition Strictly Come Dancing – dismissed the claims.
She stated that “people make things up.” The actress clarified the video was filmed by a girl at the hotel who “loved” the clip.
Speaking in an interview with TV presenter Mirtha Legrand, she said of the video: “I love it, I feel very good about my body.”
When asked who took the video of her naked in the shower, she responded: “That’s the question! [Fans] asked me because I had just met Ronaldinho.
“You see, people make things up. I took a photo with Ronaldinho in an elevator and everyone thought he had taken the photo of me.
“Actually, it was one of the girls at the hotel where I was. I told her, ‘You have to stay still here. You can’t move because my arm is covering exactly what it should cover. Don’t move’.
“She got a great shot. It went viral and well, I loved it.”
Ronaldinho has rarely been out of the headlines since hanging up his boots a decade ago. The Ballon d’Or winner was arrested in 2020 by police after accusations he and his brother had used a fake passport to enter the country.
The World Cup winner spent five months in prison before being released after accepting a plea deal.
The Brazilian icon is expecting to become a grandfather soon as his 20-year-old son, Joao Mendes, who plays for Burnley, is in a relationship with 25-year-old influencer Giovanna Buscacio. She posted the celebratory news on her Instagram last December.
