Football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has ignited speculation about his marital status after seemingly confirming that he is married to his long-time partner, Georgina Rodriguez.
The revelation occurred during his acceptance speech at the 2024 Globe Soccer Awards on Friday, December 27. The Al-Nassr forward, 39, was recognized with accolades for Best Middle Eastern Player and Top Goalscorer of All Time.
During his speech, the Portuguese icon thanked his family, saying:
“It’s a big pleasure to win this trophy. My oldest son is here, my wife [Georgina] is here.”
This statement has sparked widespread curiosity, as Ronaldo and Rodriguez, who have been together since 2016, have not publicly confirmed tying the knot.
The couple shares two children—Alana Martina, 8, and Bella Esmeralda, 2—while Rodriguez also serves as a mother figure to Ronaldo’s other children: Cristiano Jr., 14, and twins Eva and Mateo, 7.
Although marriage rumors have followed the pair for years, this is the first time Ronaldo has publicly referred to Rodriguez as his wife, intensifying speculation about a possible secret wedding.
Fans and media outlets are eagerly discussing the possibility, noting the couple’s close-knit family and high-profile lifestyle. However, neither Ronaldo nor Rodriguez has officially addressed the matter, leaving followers waiting for further details.
