Diamond Ring For Footballer's Girlfriend

Published on 17/07/08

Nereida Gallardo, the Spanish girlfriend of footballer Cristiano Ronaldo, recently quelled rumours the couple had split by stepping out in a diamond ring the soccer star had given to her.

A gold diamond ring or similar sparkling accessory is often viewed as a symbol of love and reports have taken Gallardo's outing in her home of Mallorca as evidence that the relationship may be going strong.

"I don't know where this story has come from. I have spoken to him today, as always," she commented.

The model told reporters that she was still very much in love with the man who had given her the shining diamond ring.

Meanwhile, Jewellery Insider, the style blog, recently recommended that Brad Pitt reward partner Angelina Jolie - who recently gave birth to twins - with a diamond necklace.

Such a present would be ideal for a new mother, according to the blog.
