Cristiano Ronaldo was spotted on vacation on a yacht for the first time since deciding not to attend the funeral of Jota, who tragically died in a car accident last week, the Daily Mail reported on the 7th (Korea Standard Time).
Jota and his brother Andre Silva were killed in a car accident in northern Spain on the 5th. The accident occurred just 11 days after Jota's wedding. Jota's funeral was attended by teammates of the Portuguese national team, including Bernardu Silva, Huvain Neves and Bruno Fernandes, and expressed their condolences.
However, Portugal's captain Ronaldo did not attend the funeral. The day after the funeral, Ronaldo was seen vacationing with his lover in Mallorca, Spain. Ronaldo even talked to his lover and sunbathed on a yacht worth 10 billion won. Some claimed that Ronaldo had been staying in the yacht even before the funeral.
There is also an interpretation that Ronaldo's absence was based on the judgment that his attendance could obscure the nature of the event. Ronaldo's older sister Katya Abeiro has defended Ronaldo through social networking services (SNS).

"If someone sends a message criticizing Ronaldo, I'm going to block him," he said. "This is so sick of me. It is even shameful to see a society that blames nothing and focuses on the absence of one person rather than the sadness of the bereaved family members."
Ronaldo played with Jota in a match in which Portugal won the UEFA Nations League in June this year. This game became the last game of the two players together.
Ronaldo, who had earlier heard of Jota's death, left a condolence message on social media.
Ronaldo said "I can't believe it. We were in the national team together until now, and Jota was even married..."I offer my sincere condolences to Jota's family, wife, and children. Rest in peace, Jota and Silva. Everyone will miss you."
