Widely-circulated photographs of Real Madrid player Cristiano Ronaldo and his bikini-clad girlfriend, Russian supermodel Irina Shayk, on the beach of the ‘Rania Experience’ resort were reportedly taken by Italian paparazzi on a chartered yacht anchored nearby.
Director of the resort’s management Platinum Capital Holdings, Hassan Shiyam, said a yacht registered in the Maldives as ‘Unmeed 5’ anchored next to the island, citing engine trouble.
“Later we discovered that two European paparazzi were operating in the yacht with huge cameras. The yacht also had maps of Rania,” he said. “We are sure that the pictures were taken by the paparazzi on the yacht.”
British comedian Russell Brand and pop star wife Katy Perry were also tailed by paparazzi during their honeymoon in the Maldives in October.
Minivan News understands the couple first transferred to Four Seasons Kuda Hura in North Male’ Atoll, before surreptitiously transferring to Four Seasons Landagiraavaru after supposed media intrusion before travelling to yet another resort.

They cannot have it both ways, they court publicity at home making their money out of it then complain when they are pursued by the press.
Was Brand any better when he was saying bad things about people in the UK to further his career?
How shy can Ronaldo be for goodness sake? The money these prima donnas get more than pays for being chased for photos.
Please print stories about how real people here at home are being abused by corruptive practices and incompetent officials, that is truly scandalous
