SUITE AT CENTRE OF SEX CLAIM

-

immediatel­y struck by the opulence. There is a large kitchen with a six-seat dining table. The adjacent living room provides incredible views of the Las Vegas Strip through its 10ft floor-to-ceiling windows.

There are two luxury grey marble bathrooms and two huge bedrooms. But the centrepiec­e of the £775-a-night suite is the infinity hot tub.

Kathryn has told how she sat on the edge of the tub but declined to get in after she and a female friend, “Jordan”, entered the apartment.

She added: “We thought the guys were cute... but I wanted to go... so I said I did not want to ruin my dress.” Kathryn claims Ronaldo offered her shorts and a T-shirt so she could join the others in the tub. She said she agreed and was shown into a bathroom to change. Kathryn alleges Ronaldo exposed himself before asking her to perform a sex act on him. She said she refused.

She claims he then “pulled” her into a bedroom. In legal papers, she alleges he dragged her “on to a bed and attempted to engage in sexual intercours­e”.

Sportswear firm Nike, who have sponsored Ronaldo since 2003, said they are “deeply concerned by the disturbing allegation­s”.

Kathryn’s lawyer said yesterday he is considerin­g releasing documents such as details of the medical examinatio­n she had after the alleged attack.

Ronaldo, who plays for Italian club Juventus, tweeted this week: “I firmly deny the accusation­s. Rape is an abominable crime that goes against everything I am LUXURY Palms Place DOOR At the apartment and believe in. Keen as I may be to clear my name, I refuse to feed the media spectacle created by people seeking to promote themselves at my expense.

“My clear conscious [sic] will... allow me to await with tranquilli­ty the results of any and all investigat­ions.”

His legal team have threatened to sue after claiming Kathryn, 34, broke the terms of a £288,000 deal banning her from discussing the alleged incident.

Last week, German magazine Der Spiegel ran an article in which she talked about the night she was with Ronaldo.

The boss of Portugal’s national side said yesterday that after talking to Ronaldo, it has been decided to leave him out of the squad for two months, including for a game against Scotland next week. VEGAS She poses in 2014
