Cristiano Ronaldo Marries Long Time Love Georgina Rodriguez In Intimate Portugal Wedding

The couple has built a family together over the years and shares five children. Their family includes twins Eva Maria and Mateo, 9, daughter Alana, 8, daughter Bella, 4, and Ronaldo’s 16-year-old son Cristiano Jr., whom the five-time Ballon d’Or winner welcomed from a previous relationship.

They met in 2016 when Rodriguez was working in a Gucci store in Madrid, with Rodriguez describing it as "love at first sight".

In an interview with Vogue Arabia in 2025, she said she almost immediately felt "a sense of peace and an inexplicable energy" when she was with Ronaldo, "as if we had known each other forever".

After almost a decade together, Cristiano and Georgina have taken their relationship to the next level with a private wedding, marking another major milestone for one of football’s most high-profile couples. The couple got married in Cascais, a coastal resort town around 20 miles west of Portugal’s capital, Lisbon. The intimate ceremony was attended by their five children, making it a special family occasion for Ronaldo and Rodríguez. The wedding comes after years together, with the couple having built a family and shared several major moments in their personal lives. Their relationship has remained one of the most followed in the football world, with Ronaldo and Rodriguez often sharing glimpses of their life together. The private ceremony now marks a new chapter for the couple after nearly a decade together.

Rodríguez and Ronaldo have been together through several major milestones in the footballer’s career, while also raising their children away from much of the public spotlight. Despite their immense global following, the couple have often kept details of their personal life private.
