Cristiano Ronaldo Wedding news has been officially confirmed after the Portuguese football icon married his long-time partner Georgina Rodriguez in a private ceremony held in Cascais, Portugal.
The wedding was held Tuesday, which was also the end of days of speculation regarding the time and location of the eagerly awaited event in Portuguese media. Representatives of the football superstar say the ceremony was done on a private basis and was attended by close friends and family.
Ronaldo, 41, announced the news of the marriage for the first time on his Instagram page, sharing a photo of the couple’s hands holding their wedding rings, with a simple caption: “C ❤️ G”. The post was soon read by fans, athletes and celebrities worldwide.
The couple has been together for over 10 years, and the ceremony was an important milestone in their relationship. The celebration was a family event, with the children joining in the festivities.
The union is just a year after Rodriguez, 32, an influencer and entrepreneur, declared their engagement on social media. A marriage date had been rumoured many times since then, especially from Portugal and Spain.
Although Ronaldo’s private life has been under the spotlight this week, the veteran forward is still playing professionally. The Portuguese captain recently played for his national team in the FIFA World Cup and Portugal will now be in the Round of 16. He has continued his football career at club level with Saudi Pro League club, Al Nassr.
Ronaldo has been acknowledged as one of the all-time great footballers, having set up a series of records and trophies in his career with five Ballon d’Ors to his name and successful stints at Manchester United, Real Madrid and Juventus. One of sport’s biggest international stars’ life is completed with the marriage.
