“Cristiano’s family were in attendance - both of his sisters Elma Averio and Katia Averio as well as his mother Maria Dolores dos Santos Aveiro.

“Elma opened the event entering in a horse drawn carriage, and Katia performed at the event singing several songs. The after party was located at the roof top of the CR7 hotel with several performances from Portuguese stars .

“It was a great to see Elma again - we had a good laugh.”

Now he’s home, Andy plans to return to the gym and concentrate on his fitness.

He said: “I have bookings as a support artist including Ricky Gervais’s upcoming Netflix comedy series, ‘After Life’.”
