August 12, (THEWILL) — Cristiano Ronaldo has married his long-time partner Georgina Rodriguez in Portugal, marking a major personal milestone for the football superstar just days before he returns to club action with Al Nassr.
Ronaldo and Rodriguez, who began their relationship after meeting in Madrid in 2016, confirmed the news through social media by sharing a photograph of their wedding rings.
The couple held the civil ceremony in Cascais, a coastal resort town west of Lisbon, with their five children also present for the occasion.
Their marriage brings a new chapter to a relationship that has attracted enormous attention since the pair first got together nearly a decade ago.
While Ronaldo has remained one of the biggest names in world football, Rodriguez has also built a significant public profile, with the couple frequently offering fans glimpses into their family life.
The wedding comes at an especially interesting moment for Ronaldo, who is preparing to return to competitive football with Al Nassr.
The Saudi Pro League club are only days away from beginning their 2026/27 campaign, meaning the 41-year-old forward will soon shift his attention from celebrating his marriage to preparing for another demanding season.
Ronaldo will also begin a new managerial era at Al Nassr following the appointment of former Tottenham Hotspur, Celtic and Nottingham Forest manager Ange Postecoglou.
The Portuguese forward remains a key figure for the Saudi club despite being in the latter stages of his extraordinary career.
Reynaldo’s latest campaign comes after another historic chapter with Portugal at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
The tournament was his sixth appearance at the World Cup, matching Lionel Messi’s record for the most appearances at the men’s competition.
However, Ronaldo confirmed during the tournament that he had played his final World Cup match, although he did not immediately announce his retirement from international football.
The veteran forward has represented Portugal for more than two decades and has won three major international trophies, including the 2016 European Championship.
At club level, his career has taken him through Sporting CP, Manchester United, Real Madrid, Juventus and Al Nassr, with almost 1,000 goals scored across his professional career.
Despite his age, Ronaldo continues to be one of the most influential players in world football, and his next challenge will be helping Al Nassr compete for silverware under Postecoglou.
For now, however, the focus is on his personal life.
After years together and building a family, Ronaldo and Rodriguez have officially sealed their relationship in marriage.
The celebrations will be followed by a quick return to football, with the new Al Nassr season fast approaching and Ronaldo once again preparing to lead the Saudi club’s attack.
It promises to be another significant chapter for the Portugal icon both on and off the pitch.
