Staff Reporter | PNN

Portugal superstar Cristiano Ronaldo is preparing to achieve two major personal goals before the 2026 World Cup: winning the World Cup trophy one last time and marrying his longtime partner Georgina Rodríguez.

In a recent interview, Ronaldo said he had long considered proposing to Georgina. The emotional moment occurred in the presence of their family and children. When his children asked directly, “Dad, when will you give Mom the ring?” Ronaldo’s heart was touched, prompting him to finalize his decision.

In August 2025, Georgina posted a photo on Instagram showing a 35-carat diamond ring worth around $500,000, captioned, “Yes, I do. In this life and the next.”

Ronaldo plans for the wedding to take place after the World Cup, so that he can start a new chapter in life holding the trophy—combining victory on the field with a personal milestone. Analysts say this will mark a thrilling conclusion to Ronaldo’s two-decade-long football journey: a final World Cup battle on the field alongside the beginning of life’s most important bond.
