She also remarked that being stupid is not the way to secure a long and fruitful career.

Irina said: 'No one wants to work with a stupid girl. You have to be beautiful on the inside, then people will want to continue to work with you.'

Cristiano Ronaldo, who plays for Real Madrid, and Irina are said to have been dating since early 2010.

In February last year Irina and Ronaldo were reported to be engaged after he apparently jetted all the way from Spain to New York to propose to the Russian beauty on Valentine's Day.

'They had been talking about marriage. Cristiano wanted something very special and romantic, and on Valentine's Day he travelled to New York to surprise Irina.

'He asked her to marry her.' The friend said Ronaldo's mum Dolores wants the couple to marry in the footballer's home town of Funchal, on the Portuguese island of Madeira.'

The Real Madrid star is already father to a baby boy.

Ronaldo became a father on June 17 when a mystery woman gave birth to Cristiano Ronaldo Jr.

His mother Dolores is helping raise the baby between Madrid and Portugal.

The identity of the baby's mother has never been revealed.

Shayk, bagged the honour of gracing the cover of Sports Illustrated's 2011 Swimsuit Issue, met Ronaldo last year after they modeled together for the Armani Exchange campaigns.
