Ronaldo wedding proving difficult

The forthcoming wedding of Brazil football star Ronaldo to Brazilian model Daniella Ciccarelli in February is proving a difficult prospect, O Globo newspaper reported.

The 2002 World Cup winner cannot wed in a church, as the family of his fiancee wish, before his first marriage to Milene Domingues is annulled.

Real Madrid star Ronaldo and Domingues separated at the end of 2003 after four years of marriage which produced a child.

Globo added Ronaldo's situation has not pleased the Vatican . Even for a civil wedding, the situation is difficult for Ronaldo because his divorce papers are not ready.

Last September when he got engaged to Daniella, Ronaldo announced his intention to marry her on January 2 2005, probably in Paris.
