Yes, I do.” “In this life and all the lives to come,” she wrote in a translated description.

They first said they were dating in early 2017. They have five kids together: twins Eva Maria and Mateo, 8, daughter Alana, 7, daughter Bella, 3, and Cristiano Jr., 15, who Ronaldo had with a previous partner.

He and Rodriguez had already said that Angel, Bella’s infant twin brother, had died in April 2022.

Ronaldo and Rodriguez, both 31, first showed up together in public at the Best FIFA Football Awards in Zurich in January 2017. In May of that year, they made their relationship official on Instagram.

In June 2017, they said that their first set of twins had been born through a surrogate. On November 12, 2017, they welcomed their daughter Alana into the world.

After that, there were many reports that they were going to get married. They took family vacations and had their three youngest children before Ángel’s tragic death in 2022.

Rodriguez’s Netflix show, I Am Georgina, talked about the couple’s early years of dating, including how Ronaldo met the Gucci store worker at the time. 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. “I remember that he used to come in a Bugatti. Everyone at work went crazy. They get there on the bus, and I would leave in a Bugatti. People really 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.”
