Football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has married his long-term partner Georgina Rodriguez in an intimate ceremony in the Portuguese resort of Cascais, according to the player’s representatives.
What Happened
The wedding took place on Tuesday in Cascais, an elite seaside resort approximately 30 kilometers west of Lisbon, where the couple owns a villa. The ceremony was “private and intimate,” according to Brunswick Group, the firm that handles Ronaldo’s public relations.
The couple’s five children attended the ceremony. Ronaldo, 41, shared a photo of the couple’s hands with their wedding bands on Instagram with the caption: “C (heart) G.”
The Engagement
The couple tied the knot exactly one year after Rodriguez, a 32-year-old influencer, announced their engagement on Instagram. Portuguese media had speculated extensively about the wedding’s location and timing in recent days.
Wedding Location
Portuguese media had speculated that the wedding could take place in Sintra, outside Lisbon, or in Funchal on Madeira, Ronaldo’s birthplace. Reports that the ceremony would be held in Funchal last weekend drew hundreds of people to the city’s cathedral hoping to see the couple. The cathedral had previously told AFP it had no wedding ceremony scheduled for Ronaldo, adding that hosting such an event would have been “an honour.”
Their Relationship
The couple met in 2016 when Rodriguez was working in a Gucci store in Madrid. Rodriguez has described it as “love at first sight.” In an interview with Vogue Arabia in 2025, she said she almost immediately felt “a sense of peace and an inexplicable energy” when she was with Ronaldo, “as if we had known each other forever.”
About the Couple
Ronaldo, a five-time Ballon d’Or winner, currently plays for Saudi club Al Nassr. The former Manchester United, Real Madrid and Juventus forward played for Portugal at this summer’s World Cup, where they exited in the last 16.
Rodriguez has boosted her own profile by starring in a Netflix show called “I Am Georgina,” which chronicles the family’s life between football, fashion and travel.
Together, they have amassed more than 750 million followers across social media platforms and have built one of the world’s most recognisable celebrity partnerships. The couple have a portfolio of investments that include fashion brands and a chain of hotels.
What’s Next
The couple is expected to continue their life between Portugal and Saudi Arabia, where Ronaldo plays for Al Nassr. Their growing business empire and social media presence ensure they remain one of the world’s most visible celebrity couples.
Conclusion
Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodriguez’s wedding marks the culmination of a decade-long relationship that began with a chance meeting in a Madrid store. The intimate ceremony in Cascais reflects the couple’s desire for privacy while celebrating their journey together.
