Mayorga insisted she was allowed to write it after he failed to show at the arbitration meeting where their legal teams thrashed out the settlement. It had to be read to him within two weeks of the 2010 deal.
An extract of the letter, which was prohibited from becoming public but is published by Der Spiegel, read:
“I screamed NO NO NO NO NO NOOOO over and over I begged you to stop.
“You jumped on me from behind, with a white rosary on your neck!!
“What would God think of that!!!
“I don’t care about your money that was the last thing I wanted!!
“I wanted justice!
“There really is ‘no justice’ in this case.”
Her lawyers claim in the court papers that Ronaldo’s team breached the agreed settlement by not reading the letter to him.
Der Spiegel reports that his lawyer Osório de Castro agreed to show it to him and he confirmed he had at the end of September 2010.

“What would God think of you!!!
“I hope you realize what you have done and learned from this terrible mistake!!
“Don’t take another woman’s life as you did mine!!
