Georgina Rodriguez has finally confirmed that she is engaged to soccer legend Cristiano Ronaldo, ending years of rumors about their wedding plans. The couple, who dated each other for nearly ten years after falling for each other immediately, made the announcement on social media.
A Love Story Decades in the Making
Hints and Past Teasers
While this is the first official confirmation, Rodriguez had previously posted images of a ring. However, neither she nor Ronaldo had made an official statement until now.
The football star, who recently celebrated his 40th birthday, had earlier admitted that the timing for the proposal wasn’t “quite right.”
“I always tell her: ‘When we get that click.Like everything with our life, and she knows what I’m taling about. It could be in a year or it could be in six months or it could be in a mouth. I’m 1000% sure that it’ll happen.
Friends Playfully Pressured the Couple
Rodriguez, who is Argentinian-born and currently 31, revealed that her friends often joked about their wedding plans. Speaking on her Netflix reality show I Am Georgina, she shared:
“They’re always joking about the wedding. ‘When is the wedding? Since Jennifer Lopez’s song The Ring Or When came out, they started singing it to me. And well, this is not up to me.”
Ronaldo’s Public Affection
Even before the engagement news broke, Ronaldo had not shied away from publicly referring to Rodriguez as his “wife.”
At the 2024 Globe Soccer Awards in Dubai last December, he said: “It’s a big pleasure to win this trophy. My oldest son is here, my wife [Georgina] is here.”
These remarks, though informal, indicated the strong connection the couple shared, suggesting marriage was always on the table.
For the time being, the couple appears happy basking in their moment, opening a new chapter in a relationship that has already tested for endurance.
