Cristiano Ronaldo has officially put a ring on it. After more than eight years together, the football legend has proposed to his longtime love, Georgina Rodríguez and the dazzling diamond engagement ring has left fans speechless.
The couple, who went public with their romance in January 2017, confirmed the happy news on August 11 when Georgina shared a romantic Instagram post in Spanish that translated to: “Yes, I do. In this life and all my lives.”
The 31-year-old model proudly displayed the breathtaking diamond on her left ring finger, her hand resting gently on Cristiano’s, allowing the world to get a perfect view of the stone’s brilliance.
While their engagement marks a new chapter, Cristiano and Georgina already share a beautiful family. Together they are parents to twins Eva Maria and Mateo, 8, daughters Alana, 7, and Bella, 3. Ronaldo is also father to 15-year-old Cristiano Jr. In April 2022, they shared the heartbreaking news of their baby boy’s passing a tragedy that brought them even closer.
Though Ronaldo is one of the most famous athletes on the planet, he has been open about the challenges that fame brings to personal relationships. “To be honest, it’s not easy. I know that 50 percent approach me just out of interest,” he said in a 2015 interview. But when he met Georgina, he knew she was different.

Their love story began in a Gucci store, where Georgina worked at the time. She vividly recalls how quickly her life changed, including unforgettable moments when Cristiano would pick her up from work in luxury cars. “I remember once he came in a Bugatti. My coworkers went crazy. They arrived on the bus, and I would leave in a Bugatti,” she said in her 2022 Netflix documentary I Am Georgina.
Despite their glamorous lifestyle, the Al-Nassr striker revealed that the couple often spends quiet moments together at home, away from the spotlight. Georgina, in turn, described him as “a very normal guy” and her real-life Prince Charming. “I dreamed of having a Prince Charming by my side and now I have him,” she said.
The engagement has sparked a wave of excitement across social media, with fans eager to see when and where the wedding will take place. One thing is certain, in true Cristiano Ronaldo fashion, it’s bound to be nothing short of spectacular.
