Football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo and partner Georgina Rodríguez have officially announced their engagement, ending years of speculation about their relationship status.
The couple shared the news on Monday through Rodríguez’s Instagram page, where she posted a photograph showcasing an impressive diamond engagement ring. The Spanish-Argentine model and influencer confirmed the milestone with a heartfelt caption.
“Yes I do. In this and in all my lives,” Rodríguez wrote alongside the image, expressing her commitment to the Portuguese footballer.
The announcement marks a significant development in their relationship, as the couple had previously not been engaged despite Rodríguez wearing a different diamond ring in recent years. This earlier piece of jewellery had sparked confusion among fans about their official status.
Recent Comments Fuel Engagement Speculation
The engagement comes just one month after Ronaldo addressed their unmarried status in a Netflix appearance. During the interview, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner revealed his thoughts on marriage timing.
“I always tell her, ‘when we get that click.’ Like everything with our life, and she knows what I’m talking about,” Ronaldo said on the streaming platform.
The footballer had expressed certainty about their future together, though remained vague about specific timing. “It could be in a year or it could be in six months or it could be in a month. I’m 1000% sure that it’ll happen,” he added during the Netflix interview.
Long-Standing Partnership
Ronaldo and Rodríguez have been together since 2016, when they first met at a Gucci store in Madrid where she worked as a sales assistant. Their relationship has been closely followed by millions of fans worldwide.
The couple share two daughters together, Alana Martina and Bella Esmeralda. Rodríguez also serves as a mother figure to Ronaldo’s other children, including Cristiano Jr and twins Eva and Mateo.
Throughout their relationship, the pair have frequently appeared together at major events, from football awards ceremonies to fashion shows. Rodríguez has been a constant presence supporting Ronaldo through his various club moves, including his stints at Real Madrid, Juventus, Manchester United, and currently Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia.
Social Media Reaction
The engagement announcement quickly gained traction across social media platforms, with fans and fellow celebrities offering congratulations to the couple. The Instagram post featuring the engagement ring garnered millions of likes within hours of being shared.
The timing of the engagement has surprised many observers, particularly given Ronaldo’s recent comments suggesting a more indefinite timeline. However, it appears the couple found their “click” sooner than anticipated.
