CRISTIANO RONALDO was fooling nobody as he posed in his pants while sat on a throne appearing to eat cake.
Despite now being 38, the Portuguese legend remains in incredible shape due to his eating, exercise routine and sleep and rest following his explosive exit from Manchester United in December.

We revealed last week how Ronaldo has raised training and nutrition standards since arriving at Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr.
He has just been named the Saudi Pro League player of the month after scoring eight goals and producing two assists in four appearances throughout February.
With form like that, few would begrudge him a cheat day, but supporters were having none of it as he posted the latest advert for his CR7 boxers.
The photo showed his ripped physique sitting in a throne in only his underwear, and he appeared to be tucking into a huge slice of a football cake.
Ronaldo captioned it with: “Turn your hunger to win into your greatest strength.#CR7 #DEARYS7NS #CR7UNDERWEAR #GLUTTONY.”
But his followers saw right through it, with one reply saying: “There’s no way he’d eat that cake… Diet is very important…”
Another commented: “We know he didn’t eat that cake because he avoids foods that harm him. The man is a legend.”
As we revealed previously, Ronaldo leads the most disciplined of lifestyles but can eat up to SIX meals a day, with fish a big part of his diet.
Swordfish, tuna and braised cod are particular favourites.
He regards chicken as ‘magical’ due to its high protein and low fat content.
For breakfast Ronaldo will eat egg or ham and cheese and low-fat yoghurt and if he doesn’t have it for brekkie, the now Al-Nassr forward will wolf down avocado toast for snacks during the day.
Lunch No1 could consist of chicken and salad, while No2 might be fish – maybe tuna with salad, eggs and olives.
Dinner will see the ace, who was released by Manchester United in December after an explosive interview with Piers Morgan, fill his boots with meat or fish, maybe breaking them up in two separate sittings.
Steak, swordfish or the Lisbon speciality of Bacalao a la Brasa – a mixture of braised cod, onions, thinly sliced potatoes and scrambled eggs should see him through till bedtime.
