Juventus footballer Cristiano Ronaldo is being investigated by Italian police over a trip he allegedly took to celebrate his girlfriend’s birthday.
He is accused of breaking Covid-19 rules by travelling between the regions of Piedmont and Valle d’Aosta.
Now-deleted footage posted on social media showed the couple on a snowmobile in a mountain resort, the same day Georgina Rodriguez turned 27.
Italy is seeing hundreds of deaths and thousands of infections daily.
The country was hit badly in the early stages of the pandemic last year and is now in a political crisis after struggling to bring down cases in a second wave.
Valle d’Aosta police said they were investigating the couple over the alleged trip to the Courmayeur ski resort.
