Cristiano Ronaldo Marries Georgina Rodríguez in Intimate Portugal Ceremony
Posted : 12 August 2026
Cristiano Ronaldo and his longtime partner Georgina Rodríguez have officially married after almost a decade together, bringing their highly publicised relationship to a new chapter. The couple tied the knot in an intimate civil ceremony in Cascais, Portugal, on August 11, 2026, according to reports published after the wedding.
The 41-year-old Portuguese football superstar and 32-year-old Rodríguez had been together since 2016, after meeting while she was working at a Gucci store in Madrid. Their relationship became public the following year, and they have since built a family together while frequently appearing in the global spotlight.
Ronaldo proposed to Rodríguez in August 2025, after years together. Rodríguez announced their engagement on social media by showing off her diamond ring and confirming that she had accepted the proposal.
The couple had previously indicated that their wedding would take place after the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Ronaldo had even spoken about his desire to have the World Cup trophy present at the ceremony if Portugal managed to win the tournament.
Their wedding was reportedly kept private, with the ceremony taking place in Cascais and close family members and their children among those present. Reports say Ronaldo and Rodríguez share five children in their household, including their two daughters together, while Ronaldo is also father to children from previous relationships.
The couple's journey has attracted enormous public interest over the years, particularly because of their contrasting beginnings and their transformation into one of football's most recognisable celebrity families. Rodríguez has also documented much of their life through her Netflix series I Am Georgina.
The marriage follows years of speculation about when the pair would finally formalise their relationship. After their engagement in 2025, Ronaldo and Rodríguez largely kept details of the wedding private, making the announcement of their marriage an especially significant moment for their fans.
The intimate ceremony marks a new chapter for the couple, who have spent nearly a decade together while balancing family life with Ronaldo's demanding career as one of football's biggest stars.
