Paris Hilton spills the beans on her fling with Cristiano Ronaldo

Paris Hilton has spoken for the first time about her fling with superfit soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo.

The hotel heiress admitted she is still in touch with the hunky Man United winger after they spent the night together at an LA party last week. She said: "He's a very nice guy - and an incredible athlete."

Paris, 28, added: "We're getting to know each other and I have to leave it at that."

Asked if they were dating, she replied coyly: "Cristiano and I are good friends. Very good friends."

Pals say the pair text and phone each other almost constantly.

One said: "They are such a hot couple. "She's so gorgeous. And obviously, he's a beautiful man.

"Paris has just got out of two serious relationships, so she might not be ready to jump straight into another one. But they have been texting and calling each other a lot. So, I wouldn't be surprised..."

Paris split with baseball star boyfriend Doug Reinhardt just 24 hours before hooking up with Ronaldo.

But she said she was hurt by suggestions she made a deliberate play for the 24-year-old Portugal ace, who is set to move to Real Madrid in an £80million transfer deal.

She insisted: "That never happened."
