Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodriguez announce engagement after eight years together

August 11, 2025

RIYADH — Portuguese football star Cristiano Ronaldo is engaged to his longtime partner Georgina Rodriguez, the couple confirmed on Monday.

Rodriguez, 31, announced the news from Riyadh on Instagram on Aug. 11, sharing a photo of her hand resting atop Ronaldo’s and displaying a large oval-shaped diamond engagement ring.

“Yes I do. In this and in all my lives,” she wrote in a translated caption.

Ronaldo, 40, and Rodriguez have been together since 2017 and share five children: twins Eva Maria and Mateo, 8, daughter Alana, 7, daughter Bella, 3, and Ronaldo’s 15-year-old son Cristiano Jr.

The couple suffered the loss of Bella’s newborn twin brother, Ángel, in April 2022.

The pair made their first public appearance together at the Best FIFA Football Awards in Zurich in January 2017 and went Instagram official later that year.

Their relationship began when Rodriguez was working at a Gucci store, where Ronaldo first met her.

Speaking in her Netflix series “I Am Georgina,” Rodriguez recalled how Ronaldo would visit her after work, sometimes arriving in a Bugatti, leaving her colleagues stunned. Ronaldo described their early romance as “our own world” away from the public eye.

The engagement comes after years of speculation, family milestones, and public appearances together. — Agencies
