Speaking to German newspaper Der Spiegel, Kathryn Mayorga identified herself as the American woman who accused international soccer superstar Cristiano Ronaldo of rape and settled with him out-of-court in 2010.
Mayorga claims that Ronaldo raped her in his penthouse at the Palms Place Hotel in Las Vegas back in 2009.
According to Deadspin, while one of Ronaldo’s lawyers has since denied the accusation and said he will be suing Der Spiegel for publishing the report, Mayorga’s lawyer hinted at the possession of “potentially damning documents which purport to show Ronaldo himself admitting that Mayorga did indeed vocally and repeatedly deny her consent during the sexual act.”
The largest revelation from the report is a questionnaire answered by Ronaldo from December 2009 where he apparently acknowledges that Mayorga verbally & specifically indicated that she did not want to have sex with him.
The questionnaires — which were written in code where “Ms. C” refers to Mayorga and “X” refers to Ronaldo — was administered by his own lawyers so they could further understand Ronaldo’s version of Mayorga’s claim.

The sender was a lawyer from the firm of Carlos Osório de Castro, a lawyer who has long represented the soccer star[CH1] . The recipients were Osório de Castro himself and an additional colleague.
In response to the question of whether Ms. C had ever raised her voice, screamed or called out, X answered according to the document: “She said no and stop several times.” And furthermore: “I fucked her from the side. She made herself available. She was lying on her side, in bed, and I entered her from behind. It was rude. We didn’t change position. 5/7 minutes.
She said that she didn’t want to, but she made herself available.” And further: “But she kept saying ‘no.’ ‘Don’t do it.’ ‘I’m not like the others.’ I apologized afterwards.” The document quotes him as saying that she never screamed and never called out for anyone.
“[NN2] Question: Did Ms. C. say anything afterwards about the sex being too brutal? X: She didn’t complain about it being brutal. She complained that I forced her. She didn’t say anything about wanting to go to the police.”
