'It was just her, her husband and the puppies on the boat. 'Jorge jumped into the water to try to save her but they became separated from each other because of the storm. 'He had to swim three hours towards the coast to survive.'

Caroline's agent Andreia Boneti said her husband was in a 'state of shock', adding: 'Jorge tried to save her. He saw Carol drowning and wasn't able to save her. 'It was a terrible moment for him.'

Reports around the time Caroline was asked to leave Ronaldo's wedding suggested it was to do the fact she was wearing a white dress like the bride. A friend of Ronaldo's later claimed it was because a businessman who had romanced both Caroline and Daniella was at the event. She had a 17-year-old daughter from a previous relationship.
