Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodríguez confirm marriage

Football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo and his partner Georgina Rodríguez have officially confirmed their marriage, sharing the news with fans on August 11, 2026. The couple jointly posted a photograph on their social media accounts showing their hands intertwined, adorned with wedding bands, accompanied by the simple caption "C ♡ G."

This announcement ends months of speculation and confirms a union that has been anticipated by many. The confirmation follows a private civil ceremony reportedly held in Cascais, Portugal. According to various media outlets, the intimate wedding was attended solely by the couple's five children, maintaining a low profile for the significant event.

The marriage occurs exactly one year after Rodríguez publicly announced their engagement on August 11, 2025, by showcasing the engagement ring Ronaldo presented to her. This confirmation also puts to rest recent confusion surrounding a supposed wedding at the Cathedral of Funchal in Madeira, which turned out to be for another couple, prompting a lighthearted reaction from Ronaldo.

Ronaldo and Rodríguez first met in 2016 when Rodríguez worked at a designer clothing store in Madrid, beginning their relationship the following year. Over their nearly decade-long relationship, they have built a family, sharing two daughters and Rodríguez embracing the role of co-parent to Ronaldo's other children. Their marriage marks a new chapter for the couple, solidifying their bond after years of public life together.
