Georgina set to inherit Ronaldo's Madrid villa in event of divorce
Ammon News - Cristiano Ronaldo and his fiancee Georgina Rodríguez announced their engagement after almost ten years of dating. It seems that they are now completely ready for the next big step in life, and before that they agreed on financial issues in case of divorce. Namely, as revealed by the Portuguese magazine "TV GUIA" last year, there is a contractual agreement that regulates the couple's life together. According to that agreement, in the event of a divorce, Rodríguez would receive a lifetime allowance of 100,000 euros per month. In addition, she would become the owner of Ronaldo's villa in Madrid. The property of 950 square meters is located on a plot of 4,000 square meters, and Ronaldo bought it in 2010 for five million euros. Allegedly, the marriage clauses were put in place immediately after the birth of their first daughter, Alana Martina, so that Rodríguez would have financial security. These are not large amounts for Ronaldo. The Portuguese recently signed a new contract with Saudi club Al-Nasr until 2027, and receives a huge salary. According to 'The Sun', CR7 earns 208 million euros per year — which is 17 million per month and 4.3 million euros per week. Recall, Ronaldo and his girlfriend Georgina have been together since 2017. The supermodel and the world star met in 2016 at a Gucci store in Madrid, where she worked as a saleswoman. Since then, they have been considered one of the happiest couples in the sports world.
