Netizens noticed that Ronaldo appeared irritated, possibly because of her actions.
Netizens confused by her actions, refer to her as ‘auntie’
Upon noticing this, netizens were quick to react to her seemingly discomforting gestures. Some used football puns to poke fun at the situation.
Amusingly, many online users had no idea who the woman was, simply referring to her as an “auntie”.

Whether they recognised her or not, most viewers slammed the woman for her actions, which they deemed inappropriate.

While everyone appeared to be targeting the woman, one TikTok user raised an interesting point. He wondered if Ronaldo could have been upset about other things instead as he seemed to be asking security personnel to move away.

He left the matter up to debate and invited other TikTok users to discuss.

For those who couldn’t recognise the ‘auntie’ in question, she’s actually former actress Wong Li Lin.

Wong is currently a chief executive at Mint Media Sports, a company owned by Singapore businessman Peter Lim.
As Ronaldo was in Singapore to meet youths under the NParks-Peter Lim Scholarship and the Olympic Foundation-Peter Lim Scholarship, Wong was most likely there to help out at the event.
As for why she was guarding the footballer so closely, we’re unable to ascertain. The former celebrity has also yet to address the matter.
MS News has reached out to Wong for comments. We will update the article when she gets back to us.
