Last year, Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodríguez, one of the world’s most high-profile sports couples, officially announced their engagement after nine years together. Over the years, they have built a large family and are raising five children. Now, as preparations for their wedding gather pace, international media continue to reveal new details about the upcoming celebration. Here’s everything that is known so far.

How their love story began

Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodríguez’s love story began in 2016. According to Georgina, they first met while she was working as a sales assistant at a Gucci boutique in Madrid.

From that moment on, their relationship developed quickly. Georgina moved in with the football superstar, and together they built a large family. Both have repeatedly said that family is the most important thing in their lives.

Together, they are raising five children. The couple share two daughters — Alana Martina and Bella Esmeralda. Georgina also plays an active role in raising Ronaldo’s three older children — Cristiano Jr. and twins Eva Maria and Mateo.

In August 2025, Georgina announced their engagement by sharing a photo of her stunning diamond engagement ring alongside the caption: «Yes. In this life and in all the lives to come».

When could the wedding take place?

The couple have not yet announced an official wedding date. However, the Daily Mail, citing The Sun, reported that the ceremony is reportedly planned for August 8. Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodríguez have not confirmed these reports.

Following their engagement, Ronaldo also told Piers Morgan in an interview that he dreams of getting married after the FIFA World Cup.

«I hope to walk into my own wedding carrying the World Cup trophy», the football star said.

Where could the ceremony take place?

According to British media reports, the couple are planning to marry on the Portuguese island of Madeira — Cristiano Ronaldo’s birthplace.

The wedding ceremony is expected to take place at Funchal Cathedral, a historic church with a history spanning more than 500 years. The location holds special significance for Ronaldo, as it stands close to the hospital where he was born and near the training ground of Nacional, the club where he played as a child.

Earlier, international media had also speculated that the ceremony could be held at the Quinta da Regaleira estate in Sintra.

Where could the celebration be held?

According to The Sun, the wedding reception is expected to take place at the five-star Savoy Palace hotel in Madeira. The newspaper claims that hotel management has already informed guests that two floors and several bars will be temporarily closed on Friday and Saturday due to a private event. So far, however, there has been no official confirmation of these reports.

Portuguese football icon Cristiano Ronaldo has given fans their first public glimpse inside his legendary garage, home to one of the world’s most valuable private car collections. On Instagram, the «Al-Nassr» forward shared a series of striking photos, captioning them simply: «My toys».

The images show the 41-year-old footballer posing among dozens of luxury supercars. Every vehicle is polished to perfection and displayed in its own dedicated space, giving the garage the appearance of an exclusive showroom rather than a private collection.

Ronaldo has previously admitted that collecting supercars is one of his greatest passions away from football. Today, he owns an impressive fleet of around forty luxury vehicles, including the Ferrari Monza SP2, Ferrari Daytona SP3, Ferrari GTC4 Lusso, Ferrari LaFerrari, Ferrari 599 GTO, Ferrari Purosangue, Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport, Bugatti Chiron, Bugatti Tourbillon, McLaren Senna, McLaren Speedtail, Mercedes-AMG One, Rolls-Royce Dawn, Rolls-Royce Cullinan, as well as models from Lamborghini, Porsche, Bentley, Aston Martin and Mercedes-Benz.

One of the most valuable cars in Ronaldo’s collection is believed to be the Bugatti Centodieci. Only ten examples of the model were ever produced, and its estimated value is around $10 million.

According to media estimates, the total value of the Portuguese star’s automotive collection runs into tens of millions of dollars.

Football icon Cristiano Ronaldo is set to make his acting debut. The Portugal national team captain and Al-Nassr forward will appear in the scripted television series «Day 1s», according to The Sun.

The new drama tells the fictional story of influential British football agent Stanley Dalton. The series is based on an original concept by real-life football agent Darren Dein, who has also joined the project as an executive producer. Filming for «Day 1s» is already underway in London.

The lead role will be played by Golden Globe winner Damian Lewis, best known for «Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood» and the hit series «Billions» and «Band of Brothers».

Ronaldo will be joined on screen by another football legend — Thierry Henry — as well as British rapper Dave.

For Cristiano Ronaldo, «Day 1s» marks a double debut. Not only will it be his first acting role, but he will also serve as an executive producer.

The series will become the first television production from URMarv Studios, the company Ronaldo co-founded with British filmmaker Matthew Vaughn — the creator of the Kingsman franchise, director of «X-Men: First Class», and producer of the cult classic «Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels».

Ronaldo described the project as a new milestone in his professional journey.

«This is an incredibly exciting chapter because I’m exploring a completely new direction in my career», the 41-year-old football star said.

Portuguese football legend Cristiano Ronaldo has played his final FIFA World Cup match, bidding farewell to the tournament following Portugal’s elimination.

The 2026 World Cup Round of 16 match took place in Arlington, Texas, and ended with a 1–0 victory for Spain.

Even before the tournament began, the 41-year-old Ronaldo had announced that this would be his final World Cup appearance. After the final whistle, the football icon was unable to contain his emotions and broke down in tears.

Despite being widely regarded as one of the greatest footballers of all time, Ronaldo never succeeded in winning the FIFA World Cup.

However, the athlete does not consider this to be the greatest disappointment of his career. Following the match, Ronaldo emphasized that he had already helped Portugal achieve historic triumphs.

«I won three trophies for Portugal. Before Cristiano, the national team had not won a single one. That is why I am happy. The most important trophy I won with the national team was UEFA Euro 2016. For me, its significance is equal to that of a World Cup», the footballer said.

Over the course of his career, Ronaldo set dozens of records and became a true icon of world football, scoring more than 100 goals for the Portuguese national team.

Beyond his sporting achievements, Ronaldo also made history as the first billionaire football player. His net worth is estimated at approximately $1.4 billion.

The five-time Ballon d’Or winner was deeply impressed and inspired by the meeting with the country’s leader. Cristiano shared a series of photos on social media, in which he is seen posing with his fiancée and Donald Trump.

«Thank you, Mr. President, for the invitation and the warm welcome you and the First Lady extended to me and my future wife. Each of us has something meaningful to contribute, and I am ready to play my part by inspiring new generations to build a future founded on courage, responsibility, and lasting peace», the 40-year-old footballer wrote in the caption.

Portuguese forward Cristiano Ronaldo has officially become the first football player in history whose fortune has surpassed one billion US dollars, Bloomberg reports, citing its Billionaires Index.

Over a professional career spanning more than two decades, Ronaldo has played for some of Europe’s most prestigious clubs – including Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Juventus – and has signed endorsement deals with brands such as Armani, Nike, and other global giants.

It was, however, his new contract with the Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr – valued at around 400 million US dollars – that made him the richest athlete of our time.

According to Bloomberg’s estimates, Ronaldo’s current net worth stands at approximately 1.4 billion US dollars.

At 40, Ronaldo remains not only a symbol of world football and one of its brightest stars, but also the most followed person on Instagram, with more than 660 million followers.

Experts note that this immense influence played a key role in Saudi Arabia’s decision to appoint him as a global ambassador for its sports and tourism strategy.

It was recently revealed that 40-year-old football legend Cristiano Ronaldo has decided to leave bachelorhood behind – he proposed to his long-time partner, 31-year-old Georgina Rodríguez.

«Yes, I do. In this life – and all the others», wrote a beaming Georgina on social media, alongside a photo showcasing the stunning engagement ring on her finger.

And the ring is truly breathtaking: a massive oval-cut diamond estimated to weigh between 37 and 50 carats, with a value ranging from $2 million to $5 million, according to expert appraisals.

But Ronaldo didn’t stop at the ring. To celebrate the engagement, he surprised Georgina with an entire selection of extravagant gifts, including:

• a white Porsche Taycan worth over $100,000,
• designer pieces from Dior and Louis Vuitton – including handbags and clothing worth around $40,000,
• a Patek Philippe watch valued at $60,000 and an Audemars Piguet worth $70,000.

Altogether, the total cost of the gifts is estimated at $365,000.

It’s worth noting that Georgina had been waiting nearly a decade for this moment. The couple first met in 2016, when she was working at a Gucci boutique in Madrid. Since then, their relationship has become one of the most talked-about in the world of sports and entertainment.

Today, Ronaldo and Rodríguez are raising five children together: two of their own (a daughter and a son), and three from Ronaldo’s previous relationships – all of whom Georgina considers her own.

The wedding is expected to take place no earlier than late 2026 – likely after Ronaldo completes his appearances at the World Cup, where he may take part in one of his final matches for the Portuguese national team.

Cristiano Ronaldo, the 40-year-old football legend, has decided to end his bachelor days — the athlete has proposed to his long-time love, 31-year-old Georgina Rodríguez.

The joyful news came from Georgina’s social media, where she shared a photo of a dazzling engagement ring featuring a large oval-cut diamond, accompanied by the heartfelt caption: «Yes, I do. In this life and in all others.»

According to New York gemologist Olivia Landau, the piece could be worth several million dollars, as the diamond is estimated to weigh over 10, possibly even 15 carats.

Ronaldo and Rodríguez have been together for nine years. They first met in 2016 at a Gucci boutique where she worked — a meeting that changed both of their lives forever. Georgina went from being a sales assistant to becoming an influencer, a red-carpet star, and the subject of her own Netflix show I Am Georgina. She has collaborated with brands such as Gucci, Prada, and Chanel, and later launched her own clothing line.

Despite her glamorous public life, Georgina has often admitted that the center of her universe is her family — a sentiment Cristiano fully supports. The football star has repeatedly said in interviews that Georgina helps him maintain calm and motivation off the pitch.

Today, the couple is raising five children: 15-year-old Cristiano Jr., twins Eva and Mateo, and daughters Alana Martina and Bella Esmeralda. The athlete’s three eldest children were born via surrogates, while the two youngest are his and Georgina’s biological daughters. Georgina, however, makes no distinction between «hers» and «his,» loving each child equally.

Cristiano has previously explained why he waited so long to propose. He always had serious intentions, but wanted to find the perfect moment. Now, that moment has finally arrived.

Global football star and five-time Ballon d’Or winner Cristiano Ronaldo has decided to step beyond the football pitch — and take a leap into the world of cinema. Together with British director and producer Matthew Vaughn, he has founded an independent studio called UR-MARV, according to Variety.

The aim of the new venture is to combine innovative technology with a classic approach to filmmaking. The idea is already coming to life: the studio has completed work on two action films and is currently filming a third. Details are still under wraps, but the creators promise to reveal more very soon. In all projects, both Ronaldo and Vaughn are not only producers but also investors.

This marks Ronaldo’s first experience in the film industry. Meanwhile, he continues his football career with the Saudi club Al-Nassr, where he recently hinted that this might be his final club — a possible end to his career may be approaching. If so, filmmaking could become his new primary focus.

Moreover, Ronaldo’s interest in media isn’t new. In 2023, he became the lead investor in the media holding company Medialivre, and in 2024, he launched his personal YouTube channel UR Cristiano, which has already amassed over 74 million subscribers.

Matthew Vaughn — Ronaldo’s partner in UR-MARV — is known for directing Kingsman: The Secret Service, X-Men: First Class, and producing cult films like Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch by Guy Ritchie.

Ronaldo proves once again: nothing is impossible for him — now, even in cinema.
