Ronaldo, Georgina Plan Wedding After World Cup

Cristiano Ronaldo and his fiancée Georgina Rodríguez are planning to marry after the conclusion of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, adding a personal milestone to what the Portuguese star hopes will also be a memorable tournament on the pitch.

Rodríguez has been a regular presence in the stands throughout Portugal’s World Cup campaign, offering her support as Ronaldo and his teammates continue their pursuit of football’s biggest prize. While the veteran forward remains focused on leading his country in the tournament, the couple are also looking ahead to a new chapter in their personal lives.

The pair announced their engagement in August last year after years together, confirming that they intended to formalise their relationship. According to the Portuguese newspaper Hola, the wedding is expected to take place in September 2026, shortly after the World Cup concludes.

Ronaldo has expressed his desire for the occasion to become even more memorable by celebrating it as a world champion.

“We will get married after the World Cup,” Ronaldo said. “I hope I can walk into the wedding ceremony with the champions’ trophy.”

The statement reflects the 41-year-old forward’s ambition to cap the tournament with international success before turning his attention to his family celebrations.

Rodríguez shared news of their engagement on Instagram on 11 August 2025, posting a photograph of her large diamond engagement ring. She accompanied the image with a heartfelt message that read: “Yes, I do. In this life and in all my lives.”

The announcement attracted widespread attention from fans around the world and marked another significant moment in the couple’s long-standing relationship.

Although Ronaldo remains one of the most recognisable athletes in global sport, Rodríguez has also established an international profile in her own right. Her appearances in a popular Netflix series, together with her strong presence on social media, have helped her build a substantial worldwide following.

She currently has around 74 million followers on Instagram, making her one of the platform’s most influential public figures. Her popularity has continued to grow alongside her work in fashion, entertainment and digital media, while she has remained a prominent supporter of Ronaldo throughout his career.

The couple have frequently appeared together at major sporting events and family occasions, and their relationship has attracted sustained public interest over the years. Their engagement announcement was widely welcomed by supporters, many of whom have followed their journey both on and off the football field.

Ronaldo has described his decision to marry Rodríguez as “a beautiful chapter of our lives” and said they are eagerly awaiting the opportunity to begin that new stage together.

For now, however, the Portugal captain’s immediate priority remains the World Cup. With Rodríguez continuing to support him from the stands, Ronaldo will attempt to guide his country through the remainder of the tournament before the couple turn their attention to their long-awaited wedding later this year.
