“It was good. A good achievement, but I wasn’t surprised, to be honest,” Ronaldo said.

Cristiano Ronaldo, the most-followed individual on social media, has shared his thoughts on reaching the milestone of one billion followers across all platforms.

Speaking with YouTube star MrBeast in the latest episode of his YouTube channel UR Cristiano, published on Thursday, Ronaldo described the achievement as gratifying but unsurprising.

The football icon attributed his massive following to the global love for his career and for football as a sport.

“I know the passion that people have for me and for football as well. For the career I still have, I felt that passion, so it wasn’t a surprise,” he explained.

While expressing happiness over the milestone, Ronaldo reiterated that the unwavering support of his fans worldwide made the achievement predictable.

“I feel happy, but in the same way, not surprised,” he concluded.

In September, Ronaldo made history by becoming the first person to reach one billion followers across his social media platforms. He expressed his gratitude to his fans, acknowledging their unwavering support throughout his career.

Ronaldo, who currently plays for Al Nassr, shared a heartfelt message on X, emphasising that this milestone is a testament to the shared passion and love for the game between him and his supporters.

With over 638 million followers on Instagram, 170 million on Facebook, 113 million on X, 60.7 million subscribers on YouTube, and others, Ronaldo continues to break records both on and off the field.

Ronaldo’s ever-growing influence cements his status as one of the greatest icons in sports history, both on and off the pitch.
