CRISTIANO RONALDO and Georgina Rodriguez are finally set to marry – nine years after getting together.
The couple announced their engagement this week with Georgina showing off her massive £3million diamond ring
.
Ronaldo, 40, previously said he was “1000 per cent sure” he would marry Georgina, who is mum to two of his children.
They met while Georgina, 31, was working in a Gucci shop in Spain in 2016.
The Spaniard was working as a sales assistant and revealed it was “love at first sight”
.
She told Italy’s Elle magazine: “The first meeting with Ronaldo was at Gucci where I worked as a sales assistant.
“Days later we saw each other again at another brand’s event and it was then we could talk in a relaxed atmosphere, outside of my work environment. It was love at first sight for both.”
They have been together ever since and have two children together – Alana Martina, 7, and Bella, 3.
Georgina is also raising Ronaldo’s twins Eva and Mateo, 8, and 10-year-old son Cristiano Jr.
The pair are now set to tie the knot following Ronaldo’s proposal, with Georgina stating publicly: “Yes I do. In this and in all my lives.”
Georgina sparked engagement speculation
back in April by posting a picture of a different ring on her finger.
And although she had to wait, her love for Ronaldo remained unwavering.
: “Being the partner of someone so famous is not easy but I would not change it for the world.
“What I feel for him is stronger than anything, any kind of pressure. Together we are stronger and there is a mutual admiration.”
Ronaldo was always sure he would marry Georgina too, but he wanted to wait until the time was right.
He said: “I always tell her, ‘when we get that click.’ Like everything with our life, and she knows what I’m talking about.
“It could be in a year or it could be in six months or it could be in a month. I’m 1,000 per cent sure that it’ll happen.”
