Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodriguez are now married
Cristiano Ronaldo said “I do” to his longtime partner Georgina Rodriguez in a civil ceremony on August 11, 2026, in Cascais, Portugal, a press release confirmed. The event was a “private and intimate moment” celebrated alongside their five children.
The wedding arrives one year after Rodriguez went public with their engagement on August 11, 2025. In the post, she placed her hand over Ronaldo’s to give fans a close look at her oversized oval diamond ring.
To announce the nuptials, the Portuguese football legend posted a photo of the couple’s hands wearing their wedding bands. Captioned “C❤️G”, the Instagram post has garnered 24 million likes at the time of writing.
Much of the online conversation focused on the announcement’s subtlety. Many fans noted that it felt deliberate and understated, consistent with the couple’s private handling of major life events.
Moreover, the occasion gained even more significance amid reports that Ronaldo could be stepping away from international soccer following Portugal’s 2026 FIFA World Cup exit. Observers also noted that the 32-year-old model was wearing both her engagement ring and wedding band.
Reactions came pouring in almost immediately, with one fan congratulating, “Wishing you the most beautiful married life.” Another one wrote, “I just knew he was cooking low-key. Way to go.” Even the official YouTube account left a comment, reading, “So exciting!! congrats.” Meanwhile, an admirer wrote, “Best Done Deal in history.”
Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodriguez first crossed paths in 2017, when she was working at a Gucci store, according to PEOPLE. They made their first public appearance together that January at the Best FIFA Football Awards in Zurich. A few months later in May, the star footballer made it Instagram official with a post featuring Rodriguez.
Together, the couple biologically shares daughters Alana, 8, and Bella, 4. Ronaldo also has three children from previous relationships: his eldest son, Cristiano Jr., 16, and twins Eva Maria and Mateo, 9.
