Cristiano Ronaldo proposes to Georgina Rodríguez with massive diamond ring
The Portuguese footballer, who captains both the Saudi Pro League club Al-Nassr and the Portugal national team, first met Georgina in 2016 when she was working as a sales assistant at a Gucci store in Madrid in 2016.
This week the couple announced they are set to walk down the aisle.
Posting a photo on Instagram of their hands on a bed, with a massive diamond ring on her finger, the Argentinian-born, Spanish raised model wrote: 'Yes I do. In this and in all my lives.'
The post was quickly met with hundreds of comments congratulating the pair.
'So happy for you,' Lauren Sanchez Bezos wrote.
'Darling, what fabulous news!!! Sending you both heartfelt congratulations and so much LOVE!!' Charlotte Tilbury shared.
'Wonderful news! Many congrats to you both,' Piers Morgan added.
Many others also shared comments with a series of love heart emojis.
Cristiano and Georgina share five children.
They have two daughters together, Alana, seven, and Bella, three – while Bella's twin brother Angel tragically died during birth.
At the time they shared: 'It is with our deepest sadness we have to announce that our baby boy has passed away. It is the greatest pain that any parents can feel.'
Georgina has also helped to raise his other three children – Cristiano Jr, 15, Mateo, eight, and Eva Maria, eight.
The football star – who is worth an estimated $275million (£204million) – also has three more children, a son born in June 2010 and twins born in June 2017, however Georgina treats them all as her own children.
The official engagement post comes after speculation Cristiano had proposed in recent months.
Fans had been speculating he'd got down on one knee after she had shared pictures of a bridal-themed dinner and posed for photographs wearing a ring.
Cristiano had previously spoken about holding off on proposing as the timing wasn't 'quite right'.
'I always tell her: 'When we get that click. Like everything with our life, and she knows what I'm talking about. It could be in a year, or it could be in six months or it could be in a month. I'm 1000% sure that it'll happen,' he said.
On her Netflix reality show I Am Georgina, she had also detailed how loved ones were asking for updates too.
'They're always joking about the wedding. 'When is the wedding?'. 'Since Jennifer Lopez's song The Ring Or When came out, they started singing it to me. And well, this is not up to me,' she said.
In the documentary he also described Georgina as 'the woman of my life', adding that he is 'completely in love with her'.
'I didn't think at the beginning that it would be this strong, that I would fall in love with her… I didn't expect it honestly but after I while I felt like she was the woman of my life,' he said.
Meanwhile she added: 'I used to dream of a Prince Charming and today I have one with wonderful kids who give me so much love. Yes, I can say dreams do come true.'
Despite not officially confirming their marriage, Cristiano has often referred to Georgina as his 'wife'. More Trending
At the 2024 Globe Soccer Awards in Dubai late last year, he said: 'It's a big pleasure to win this trophy. My oldest son is here; my wife is here.'
Earlier this year, when celebrating Georgina's birthday, Cristiano also posted on social media: 'For the mother, partner, friend, my wife… happy birthday, love. Your light illuminates us, and your love infects us.'

Ibiza Final Boss's incredible new life from £9million villa to Bonnie Blue tease
Jack Kay shot to fame when a clip of the distinctive raver dancing on the Spanish party island went viral - now the Ibiza Final Boss is in line to earn six figures It began with a simple video on social media and soon after Jack Kay was captured dancing by Ibizan open air club Zero Six West, a legend was born. Jack, from Newcastle, was dubbed the Ibiza Final Boss of the Spanish party island after his distinctive appearance sent him viral on TikTok. The 26-year-old was quickly identified after Zero Six West asked in their caption: "Does anyone know this absolute legend coz we've got two free guestlist [spots] with his name on it!" The social media clip, which showed Jack sporting a memorable blunt bowl haircut as he partied wearing flashy sunglasses, a dazzling gold chain and designer black vest, has been viewed more than 18 million times in little over a week. Since going viral, we take a look at how his life has changed... READ MORE: Ibiza Final Boss' mystery relationship timeline as he 'fights to keep glam girlfriend' When the viral sensation's dancing display caught the eye of the internet, one person said of his eye catching haircut: "Ibiza at 11, bullying King John to sign the Magna Carta at 12", while another joked: "Short back and battle of Hastings please mate". Brands were quick to get on board too, with offering Jack an extended stay on the party isle. In no time at all, Jack had set up his own Instagram and TikTok accounts and he was soon snapped up by top celeb talent agency, Neon Management. The raver, whose distinctive look has been compared to everyone from Ringo Starr to Friar Tuck and a Lego man, went onto return to Ibiza in style with four mates. Sporting a fresh trim, the Ibiza Final Boss and his crew were seen boarding a £5 million private jet, with Jack sporting a fresh bowl cut trim from his barber Ali Kurbani back in Gateshead. "Ibiza, I'm on my way," he declared, heading to £5 million mansion Blue Stone Villa in upmarket Santa Eulalia. Ali, of B&D Barbers, told The Sun his client asks for a "medium skin fade with some length left on top", with the secret to the Lego -like shape being keeping the fringe crisp and the front well-defined. Jack's Ibiza Boss haircut costs £26. After returning to Ibiza, Jack was seen partying up a storm at a £9 million villa on the Spanish island, inviting 100 of his fans to watch DJs Deniz Menendez and Rsquared perform. Landing himself in hot water, the Ibiza Final Boss is said to have hired five dwarves for the event too, leading to criticism from disability rights groups. The party animal also turned the head of infamous adult content creator Bonnie Blue, who left an eyes emoji on a social media post which showed Jack riding in a Mercedes G-Wagon. The raver cryptically responded to Bonnie: "The final boss can't be slayed… your misses on the other hand? Her levels been completed". After he went viral, Jack's girlfriend Alisha Cook quickly made herself known. The 23-year-old from Durham captioned a series of clips on TikTok: "POV ya boyfriend's now known as the Ibiza final boss". But within days it was reported the couple were in trouble when Jack jetted back to the party island with his mates. Alisha later told The Sun: "All I want to say is, I love him, we're back together". As for Jack's career, PR Mayah Riaz, of Mayah Media, told the Mirror he had the potential to earn six figures if he made the most of his 15 minutes of fame. "He's got the holy trinity of viral success: that he's relatable, he popped up at the right time, and he's unintentionally hilarious," said the expert. "The internet seems to love him. And in today's fame economy that kind of organic buzz can absolutely be cashed in on, if he plays it right." Despite becoming the Ibiza Final Boss overnight, the Geordie insisted he was a simple lad at heart. "Appreciate all the love and messages off everyone," he told his fans on social media after he went viral. "I will get back to everyone quick as I can it's just a lot for me to take in at the moment. I am just a normal person from Newcastle it's crazy stay locked in got some big news coming."

Dortmund renew interest in Chelsea defender following Niklas Sule injury blow
Borussia Dortmund have stepped up their pursuit of Renato Veiga once again as the club scramble to bring in cover for Niklas Sule before the summer transfer deadline. Sule is expected to be sidelined for around two months after hobbling out of Dortmund's pre-season clash with Juventus with a torn calf muscle on Sunday. BVB are also without Nico Schlotterbeck, who is still yet to return from a serious knee problem, and the looming threat of a full-blown defensive injury crisis has forced the club to consider their options in the transfer market. According to Sky Deutschland, young Argentine defender Juan Gimenez, 19, who plays for Rosario Central, has been on Dortmund's radar for some time and is a potential option for the Bundesliga outfit. It would likely require an offer of between €5-8m (£4.3-6.9m) for Dortmund to snap up Gimenez. In The Mixer: Exclusive analysis, FPL tips and transfer talk sent straight to your inbox every week – sign up, it's an open goal. The report claims have also remain interested in Chelsea defender Veiga having first explored a move for the versatile Portugal international in January. BVB's bid to sign Veiga over the winter had appeared to be creeping in the right direction and the 22-year-old even agreed personal terms over a switch to the Westfalenstadion. However, the proposed move never materialised and Veiga would go on to join Juventus on loan for the second half of the campaign, with the centre-half making 15 appearances in all competitions for the Serie A giants. There are still six years remaining on Veiga's current contract at Stamford Bridge. Veiga has struggled to establish himself at Chelsea having joined the club in a £12m deal from FC Basel just a year ago and reports last month claimed the Portuguese was keen to quit the Blues. Enzo Maresca left Veiga out of his squad for Chelsea's Club World Cup campaign this summer and it appears the youngster is not a part of the Italian's plans for the upcoming season. It was only last October that Maresca singled Veiga out for special praise after handing the ex-Basel man a rare start in the side's Europa Conference League victory over Panathinaikos. 'I just said to Renato, he has played already as a centre-back, a full-back, holding midfielder, attacking midfielder,' the Chelsea head coach told reporters after the 4-1 win. 'He has already played four or five positions. One of my first press conferences, I said that the reason why I really like and love Chelsea is because many players can be versatile. 'Today, in my idea, if they can play different positions, then it is better for the team and especially for the players. Today, if you just play one position, I don't think it's enough. 'You need to learn more positions. Renato, Malo [Gusto], they are playing in different positions and they are doing well.' For more stories like this, check our sport page.
