Irina Shayk has walked in spectacular action in Madrid last April 19, but without her fiancee — Cristiano Ronaldo. With a beaded mini dress in metallic tones and high black heels, Irina appeared in the shop, where she posed for the media while signing some autographs; modelling a new collection of lingerie.

She posted on her social networking account a few pictures of the event and left a message of thanks to all the people who attended. “I’m very happy being at the Intimissimi boutique in Madrid. It was raining a lot, but I still attended the event and really appreciate the gesture.”

Irina has been smiling, but in the past, she avoided questions about her relationship with Cristiano, as she has always tried to separate her personal life from Ronaldo’s professional life. Being a girlfriend of a football star is not an easy task.

Irina spent her last few hours in Madrid with Cristiano Ronaldo, because she was traveling to Lisbon the next day—where she has another event for the lingerie line. The last time Irina Shayk and Cristiano Ronald were seen together in the capital was a couple of weeks ago, when she went to support him to with their game against Apoel Nicosia FC. A few days after that, they were spotted going out to dinner on a luxurious restaurant. 

The Russian model spends most of her time in New York. Only her professional commitments allow her travel and see her knight in shining armor. Before her visit to Madrid, she stopped at Turkey. Last week, she also traveled to Portugal before her next stop to Moscow.

Irina Shayk or Irina Shaykhlislamova was born on January 6, 1986 in Salavat, Bashkortostán, Russia. This green-eyed model stands at 5’10” tall, and has an amazing physique of 34-24-35.

Irina was orphaned by her father at the age of 14 due to pneumonia. Her mother then supported their family. Irina said she inherited her skin tone from her father and her eyes from her mother. Irina Shaykhlislamova lived a very simple life. She went to music school for 7 years, and attended a modeling school with her sister, Tatiana. However, all this changed when she was discovered by the director, who advised her to join a beauty contest.

In 2005, she won the Ms. Chelyabinsk title. A year later, she moved to Paris in search for better opportunities. From then on, her modeling career was soaring high. She was on numerous campaigns for La Perla, Lacoste, Germaine de Cappuccini, Armani Exchange  and Guess. She also appeared on the covers of the Annabelle Magazine in Germany, the Bolero Magazine in Switzerland, as well as the Jalouse Magazine’s 2006 edition in Greece.

This beautiful model became more known by her appearances in the prestigious magazine, Sports Illustrated. She modeled for the Swimsuit Edition as one of the Rookies of the magazine in 2007 and became the new face of the Italian clothing line, Intimissimi. In 2010, she was hailed as the new ambassador for the same clothing line. In the same year, she posed in a very sensual in bikini for the cover of Ocean Drive Magazine, in their July-August edition.

Irina Shayk has revolutionized the advertising world. No wonder she caught the eye of one of the most famous football players, Cristiano Ronaldo.

After five months of being together, Cristiano Ronaldo and Irina Shayk lived under the same roof. Besides opening his heart, Cristiano Ronaldo has opened the doors for his girlfriend in a luxurious mansion in one of Madrid’s exclusive places.

Things have been going well and strong for the Russian beauty and Portugese star. Rumors say that the couple is ready to take their relationship to a new level. Last September, Cristiano Ronaldo informed the press of a tentative date on when they’ll be exchanging vows: July 12,2012, shortly after the European Cup. The wedding is said to take place in Madrid, the football star’s hometown.

However, another rumor said that the wedding could be before July 12. Irina Shayk was spotted visiting Vera Wang’s bridal shop in New York.

Well, it seems that we’ll be expecting wedding bells anytime soon. Yet, there seems to be a little tension with Irina and Cristiano’s mother. Last Wednesday, Irina Shayk went to the Santiago Bernabeu stadium to watch the game between Real Madrid and FC Apoel. Both mother and girlfriend sat each in a corner of the box, however, there were no exchange of words. The football star is still hopeful that both ladies in his life will reconcile.

If the relationship between Irina and his mother do not improve, will Ronaldo reconsider the relationship to please his mother?

They say that Posh Spice, Victoria Beckham, has to be threatened by Cristiano Ronaldo’s apple of the eye.

Irina Shayk, the 26-year-old Russian beauty awed the glamor world with her stunning looks and great physique. Irina is modeling the Laura Scott’s new collection. It seems that the supermodel is taking fashion world by storm. Irina flaunts her beauty and amazing assets in this clothing line.

Besides both being fashion icons, both beauties have another thing in common. Both are in relationships with two of the most popular footballers, in David Beckham and Cristiano Ronaldo.

But, is there fairness in comparing Victoria to Irina?

Irina Shayk, who we’ve definitely seen in her underwear for previous modelling campaigns, quite normal for lingerie promotion, right?

Irina showcases quite an interesting technique to model a new line of flip flops, wearing a pair of white shorts, with the red flip flips placed over her bare chest. We also see her kneeling over a chair, wearing denim shorts and a blue/white office shirt tucked up to reveal her impressive stomach; what more can we say? Sex definitely sells.

The Russian model, having appeared on shows such as, David Letterman and Ellen DeGeneres; as well as a front cover on Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition; has been in a relationship with Real Madrid footballer, Cristiano Ronaldo; they were reported to be engaged in February, 2011.

Irina states modelling isn’t about big lips, makeup or beautiful hair, but rather about being yourself; and presenting a sexy, flirty image – like a normal person!

It seems as if there is two ladies in Cristiano Ronaldo’s life, one of them being Irina Shayk (his girlfriend) and the other his mother, but at the same time these two ladies appear to be trying to avoid each other. At Cristiano Ronaldo’s latest game you could see just how they were trying to ignore one another, sitting very far apart however they both support Cristiano Ronaldo’s team, they were about 7 seats apart and didn’t even seem to want to acknowledge one another, they just sat there very awkwardly. Another very surprising fact is that it seemed as if though Cristiano JR. (Ronaldo’s son) whom Irina Shayk was taking care of throughout the game, was taking turns going to his Grandmother and Irina Shayk back and forth. Aside from all that Irina looked very good as usual, she wore beige high-waisted trousers accompanied by turn-ups and a beige jumper. Even thought this was a sporting event, the super model made sure she was dressed to the best of her ability, which is never a let down as she continues to amaze her fans (myself) with her beauty. She also wore large wedges to top it all off. It seems that Ronaldo’s son takes quite a liking to her as he sat in her lap and was giggling throughout the game, Ronaldo’s mother just sat there with her arms crossed while this was going on.

However both Irina Shayk and Ronaldo’s mother have been seen before sharing each other’s company during other games, they’ve sat next to each other many times before. Regardless of past incidents, seeing how the situation was during the last game shows that there must be some trouble going on between the two as they completely avoided each other. During this game while she wasn’t watching Ronaldo’s son she eagerly watched as her boyfriends team was taking the lead 5-0. This shows that she respects him and what he does very much in addition to taking care of his son, she not only is a very beautiful women but a very respectful one at that. Irina was shocked when she found out that Ronaldo had fathered the child through a surrogate in 2010, this doesn’t seem to bother her but it could be one of the reasons why there is trouble going on between the two ladies in his life, but we can’t know for certain, at least not yet.
