Ronaldo confirmed the birth of his twins via surrogate at the end of last month.
And Cristiano Ronaldo introduced his newborns to their big brother Cristiano Ronaldo Jr on Tuesday, during their first family holiday together.
The footballer, 32, took to his Instagram page to share a heartwarming snap of himself and his seven-year-old son cuddling the twins, believed to be called Mateo and Eva, for his 105 million followers.
In the snap, the Real Madrid star is seen beaming with pride as he clasps one of the tots tightly in his arms, while his mini-me son cuddles the other beside him.
Cutting a relaxed figure in white sports shorts and a red cap, Cristiano sweetly smiles down at his oldest son in the snap - as the seven-year-old is introduced to the twins for the first time.
Clearly overwhelmed to be a father for the second and third time, the sportsman simply captioned the shot: 'Blessed'.
The family photo garnered over 1 million likes in the space of an hour - following the birth of the twins at the end of last month.
The footballer had shared the first heartwarming photograph of his twins on Thursday, which he captioned: 'Happy to be able to hold the two new loves of my life.'
The 32-year-old, who suffered professional disappointment on Wednesday night when Portugal were knocked out of the Confederations Cup, returned home to celebrate his personal joy.
Ronaldo, who has scored 285 league goals in 241 games for Real Madrid , was unable to meet his son and daughter due to football commitments but finally held them for the first time on Thursday.
The Ballon d'Or winner shared the sweet photograph of him holding his children while sat on his sofa.
The birth means Ronaldo is now a father-of-three and they join their older brother, seven-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo Jnr.
Ronaldo was only able to meet the twins for the first time on Thursday as he had been away with Portugal at the Confederations Cup, where they were beaten in the semi-finals on penalties by Chile.
He confirmed their birth officially for the first time after that game via a Facebook post, following days of rumours.
It comes a month after it emerged his family could grow with his 22-year-old girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez rumoured to be pregnant.
According to the Portuguese TV channel SIC, Ronaldo had a boy and girl named Eva and Mateo via a mother on the west coast of America.
In a Facebook post, Ronaldo said: 'Unfortunately, we have not been able to achieve the main sporting objective we wanted, but I am sure we will continue to give the Portuguese joy.
'I am very happy to finally be able to be with my children for the first time.'
