After eight years together and raising a blended family of five children, soccer legend Cristiano Ronaldo and his longtime partner, Georgina Rodríguez, have taken the next step getting engaged. The news broke when Rodríguez shared an intimate Instagram post on August 11, 2025, featuring her manicured hand on top of Ronaldo’s, prominently showcasing a gigantic oval-cut diamond ring. Her caption, translated from Spanish, read: “Yes I do. In this and in all my lives.”
Jewelry experts have weighed in on the ring’s remarkable design and value. According to the report, the center diamond could exceed 30 carats, with a flawless D color grading pushing the estimated cost as high as $5 million. Meanwhile, Laura Taylor of Lorel Diamonds offers a slightly more conservative estimate, placing the central stone in the 15–20 carat range and valuing the piece at over $2 million. The ring’s platinum setting, flanked by substantial side stones, only heightens its brilliance.
The couple’s love story began in Madrid in 2016, when Ronaldo met Rodríguez while she was employed as a sales assistant at a Gucci store. Their relationship quickly became public in early 2017, and their bond has been closely documented including in Rodríguez’s Netflix series I Am Georgina. One memorable story from the show describes how Ronaldo often picked her up in extravagant cars like a Bugatti, creating a fairy-tale-like contrast with her everyday life.
Today, they are raising five children: Ronaldo’s eldest son Cristiano Jr., twins Eva and Mateo, and their daughters Alana and Bella. The family also endured heartbreak in 2022 when Bella’s twin brother, Ángel, tragically passed away at birth.
This engagement confirms what fans and media had long speculated. As the couple embarks on this new chapter, their journey continues to inspire combining glamour, family devotion, and enduring love.
