One of the texts reportedly read: "I will call in one hour if you send a number be private number. I'm at my hotel."

She then replied: "I'm just about to pick my fella up from work and then we are going for drinks. I don't think he'd approve of me talking to you at 11pm."

Oliver, 36, then sent Ronaldo a warning to back off.

A source told the publication that Cristiano, who also welcomed twins Eva and Mateo last year, "bombards Rhian with messages periodically."

They went on: "They're friendly enough, but sometimes turn a bit weird. She's mentioned several times that she has a fiancé, but he doesn't seem to take notice.

"In the end, Oliver found out and sent Ronaldo a polite message asking him to back off. Since then Ronaldo has deleted the conversations."

Rhian, who has been engaged to Oliver since 2014, released risqué messages sent by married TV presenter Vernon Kay in 2010, forcing him to publicly apologise to his wife Tess Daly on national radio.
