Ronaldo’s attorney Peter Christiansen said the sex was consensual. However, Kathryn Mayorga and her attorneys argued otherwise.
She also has a lawsuit that is ongoing against Ronaldo in Las Vegas, according to the story. She alleges that either Ronaldo — or people working for him — allowed a confidential financial settlement to go public.
