After 10 Years Together, Cristiano Ronaldo Weds Longtime Girlfriend
Football legend Cristiano Ronaldo and his long-time partner, model and influencer Georgina Rodríguez, have officially married in a private civil ceremony. The elite couple, who have been together for a decade, confirmed their union through a joint social media post that sent shockwaves across the internet.
An Intimate Coastal Ceremony
Breaking away from the typical grand scale of celebrity weddings, the 41-year-old Al-Nassr striker and the 32-year-old model chose an ultra-private setting. The ceremony took place in the picturesque coastal resort town of Cascais, located about 20 miles west of Lisbon.
According to statements from the Brunswick Group, the public relations team representing Ronaldo, the wedding was a strictly “private and intimate moment”. The only guests in attendance were the couple’s five children: Cristiano Jr. 16, Eva Maria 9, Mateo 9, Alana Martina 8, and Bella Esmeralda 4.
The Digital Announcement
The couple broke the news to their hundreds of millions of followers by posting a simple, elegant photograph on Ronaldo’s Instagram account. The image highlighted their intertwined hands showing off matching gold wedding bands.
The post was captioned simply with their initials and a heart, “C❤️G”. It amassed over three million likes within just 30 minutes of being published, triggering a wave of global congratulations from fans, athletes, and celebrities alike.
A Symbolic Anniversary
The choice of date holds major sentimental value for the newlyweds. They tied the knot exactly one year after Rodríguez initially announced their engagement on August 11, under a photo of a massive 37-carat diamond ring.
The marriage cements a romance that famously began in 2016 when Ronaldo first met Rodríguez while she was working as a sales assistant at a Gucci boutique in Madrid. At the time, Ronaldo was playing for Real Madrid.
