Piers Morgan has hinted that the woman who came to Cristiano Ronaldo's rescue when he was a starving child may have been found.
In the Juventus star's interview with the ITV presenter, it was revealed he used to wait outside a McDonald's restaurant because he was too poor to buy burgers for himself while a kid in Sporting Lisbon's academy.
Coming to his aid were a group of women who handed out food to Ronaldo and his hungry friends, and he recalled the name 'Edna' for one of them.
The man himself has been unable to track her down but Morgan's interview may have set that it motion.
Following the chat, he tweeted: "UPDATE: We may have found Edna..."

I'm not a fan of Ronaldo especially his arrogance side. But I love him for his heart and he is grateful. You cannot find her anymore. She was an angel came to assist. Just continuous to help needed people as you was doing.

That's why Ronaldo is a football legend. He has a passionate heart and a grateful person. Though he is a superstar he is still concerned people who had helped him before. He is role model.

It's takes a decade or plus to replace such player like CR7. It was greatest error ever to be done by a club president. You maintain such player in the team,until you have their replacement. Real Madrid is suffering from the absence of their Legendary striker. No other player has the winning spirit on the team right now,who is a striker like CR7. The team will pick up but not now. Hala Madrid !
