NEED TO KNOW
Cristiano Ronaldo and his longtime partner, Georgina Rodriguez, are engaged
The bride-to-be announced the news on Instagram on Monday, Aug. 11, showing off her massive diamond engagement ring
The Portuguese soccer star and Rodriguez have been dating since 2017 and share five children
Cristiano Ronaldo put a ring on it — and a massive one at that!
The Portuguese soccer star, 40, is engaged to his longtime partner, Georgina Rodriguez, after eight years of dating. The bride-to-be revealed the happy news on Instagram on Monday, Aug. 11, sharing a photo of her hand resting atop Ronaldo’s, showcasing her flashy ring.
The sparkler features a giant, oval-shaped diamond.
“Yes I do. In this and in all my lives,” she wrote in a translated caption.
The pair, who first confirmed their relationship in early 2017, share five children: twins Eva Maria and Mateo, 8, daughter Alana, 7, daughter Bella, 3, and 15-year-old son Cristiano Jr., whom Ronaldo welcomed in a previous relationship.
He and Rodriguez previously announced the death of Bella’s newborn twin brother, Ángel, in April 2022.
Ronaldo and Rodriguez, 31, made their first official appearance together at the Best FIFA Football Awards in Zurich in January 2017, before going Instagram official in May of that year.

In June 2017, the pair announced the birth of their first set of twins via surrogate, before welcoming daughter Alana on Nov. 12, 2017.
In the years that followed, the duo repeatedly sparked engagement rumors, enjoyed family trips and welcomed their three youngest children, before Ángel’s tragic death in 2022.
During Rodriguez’s Netflix series, I am Georgina, the couple detailed their early years of dating — when Ronaldo met the then-Gucci store assistant. According to an English audio translation at the time, Ronaldo thought she was a “very interesting girl, so much more mature for her age.”
“Many times he’d come after work,” Rodriguez recalled of her now-fiancé. “He would come, I remember once, in a Bugatti. My coworkers went crazy. They get there on the bus, and I would leave in a Bugatti. I mean, people couldn’t believe it.”

Ronaldo added: “It was funny because I would wait for her outside the store in these flashy cars I have. … We would go home, and there we would go into our own world.”
Elsewhere in the Netflix series, Rodriguez opened up about the loss of their child, describing it as “the best and the worst moment of my life.”
“Over 40 million people follow me, but no one knows how I really feel. This year, I had the best and the worst moment of my life in an instant,” she said, adding that Ronaldo “encouraged” her to start enjoying life again after the death of their baby son and birth of his twin sister. “Life is hard. Life goes on. I have reasons to move on and be strong.”
