Cristiano Ronaldo marries Georgina Rodríguez in Portugal

Cristiano Ronaldo has married Georgina Rodríguez, sealing a decade-long relationship in a quiet civil ceremony in Portugal.

The couple were officially wed on Tuesday in Cascais, a coastal town just outside Lisbon. The event, organized away from the spotlight, was described by Ronaldo’s public relations team, Brunswick Group, as “a private and intimate moment attended by their five children.”

No red carpet. No stadium-sized guest list. Just family.

Ronaldo, 41, and Rodríguez, who met in Madrid ten years ago, shared a single image on their Instagram accounts to mark the occasion, showing their wedding rings and confirming what had long been the subject of public curiosity around one of football’s most watched couples.

The setting, Cascais, offered a fitting backdrop: an upscale Atlantic town west of the Portuguese capital, far from the roar of the crowds that have followed Ronaldo from Lisbon to Manchester, Madrid, Turin, and now Saudi Arabia.

The five-time world player of the year comes into this new chapter in his personal life on the back of another milestone in his professional one. He recently played in his record-tying sixth World Cup for Portugal, extending a career that has pushed the limits of longevity at the elite level.

Now, as his Saudi club Al Nassr prepares to kick off its domestic season on Saturday, Ronaldo steps into the campaign as both captain and newly married man—balancing the demands of a global icon with the realities of family life in a way only he truly knows.
