Despite Sharing Kids, Cristiano Ronaldo Said He Won't Propose To Georgina Rodríguez Until He Feels A 'Click' In Their Relationship — And It's Sparked A Huge Debate About Marriage

Yahoo21-03-2025
Whether or not you're a soccer fan, I don't doubt you've heard the name Cristiano Ronaldo. He's regarded among the best soccer players in history and is one of the most globally famous people on the planet, currently ranking as the most followed person on Instagram by quite some margin.
And while Cristiano's career is focused on the soccer field, there's no shortage of interest in his personal life, too — not least, his love life. Though he's been rumored to have had romances with a number of famous women over the years, his most notable relationships have been with supermodel Irina Shayk (whom he dated between 2010 and 2015) and his current girlfriend, Georgina Rodríguez.
Georgina and Cristiano met in 2016 while she was working as a sales assistant at a Gucci store in Madrid, Spain. Since then, the pair have welcomed two children, 8-year-old Alana Martina and 2-year-old Bella, whom they raise alongside the soccer star's other children: 14-year-old Cristiano Jr. and 7-year-old twins Eva Maria and Mateo.
With over 716 million Instagram followers between them, Cristiano and Georgina are an incredibly public couple. And, for many years, there's been speculation as to whether the two will ever marry, particularly because they're now based in Saudi Arabia, where it's illegal to live together or have children before marriage. And now, a resurfaced video of Cristiano explaining why he's held off on proposing is making the rounds online — and the discourse is a lot.
In case you didn't know, Georgina has a popular Netflix show, I Am Georgina, which documents her lavish life as a mom and ultimate WAG. The first season, which came out in January 2022, details how she and Cristiano first met and, notably, includes the couple addressing speculation about why they aren't married.
'They're always joking about the wedding: 'When is the wedding?!'' Georgina says in a confessional, translated into English. 'Since Jennifer Lopez's song 'El Anillo' came out, they started singing it to me, and well, it's not up to me.' If you're not familiar, J.Lo's 2018 song 'El Anillo' tells the story of someone impatiently waiting for their partner to propose, singing in the chorus, 'I have it all, but where's the ring?'

Explaining his take on the situation in a separate confessional, Cristiano reassured that he's '1000% sure' that he and Georgina will get married one day, but only when he feels a certain change in their relationship. 'I always tell her: 'When we get that click,'' he said, gesturing a click with his fingers. '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.'
Well, it's been three years, and that specific clip from I Am Georgina has resurfaced on X in a big way. As you'd expect, it's left people very divided: On one side of the debate, people have taken issue with the whole 'click' thing, finding it strange to suggest you've yet to 'click' with someone you share a life and family with.

And in light of the fact it's been a few years since Cristiano made those comments, others doubted the possibility that they'll ever tie the knot, despite his assurance.

And while plenty of users have suggested the reason they aren't married might have less to do with a 'click' and more to do with Cristiano wanting to protect his assets, others have highlighted that marriage means different things for different people — and it certainly doesn't have to be the primary goal of a person's life.

Honestly, just a few minutes spent watching Georgina's show or scrolling her Instagram will indicate that she's seemingly living a happy life.
And with that in mind, maybe it's not that far-fetched to believe she's not worrying too much about a ring right now. But still, what are your thoughts on this whole thing? LMK in the comments.

Netflix confirms fan-favorite 'Wednesday' star is making a surprise return in season 2 — and a possible season 3 update

In a thrilling twist, Netflix has confirmed that Gwendoline Christie will reprise her role as Larissa Weems in the upcoming second part of 'Wednesday' season 2, set to premiere on September 3, 2025. Christie's return was unveiled during the 'Outcast Assembly' fan event in Sydney, where she made a dramatic entrance, emerging from behind a suspended moon to declare, 'Did you honestly believe Nevermore would let me slip away so easily? I was never truly gone... you simply stopped searching.' Larissa Weems, the enigmatic and impeccably poised principal of Nevermore Academy, was presumed dead following the events of season 1. Her unexpected return raises numerous questions about the character's fate and the mysteries awaiting in the next installment. Larissa Weems 🔥'WEDNESDAY' Season 2 Part 2 trailer releases today! 14, 2025 Naturally, fans have been speculating online since this announcement. Given Weems' apparent death in season 1 due to nightshade poisoning, several theories have emerged. One possibility is that she may appear in flashbacks, offering deeper insights into her past and her connections with other characters. Alternatively, some speculate that Weems could return as a spirit or in a vision, potentially interacting with Wednesday (Jenna Ortega) through her psychic abilities. Additionally, discussions have circulated about the possibility of Weems having faked her death using her shapeshifting abilities. While Netflix has not confirmed the specifics of her return, fans eagerly await to see which of these theories, if any, proves true. While earlier reports suggested filming for 'Wednesday' season 3 might begin in fall 2025, a more recent update from Production Weekly indicates that Netflix could now be eyeing a Q2 2026 start date. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. This shift in the production schedule could mean a slightly longer wait for the third season's release. However, it's important to note that the creative team has not officially confirmed any details. Despite this potential delay, the show's creators, Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, have emphasized their commitment to delivering a high-quality continuation of the series. When speaking to Collider about a potential 'Wednesday' spinoff, they said: 'It's not a priority at the moment because, as we just said, it's how do we get Wednesday back faster than we did in season 2? 'So, we kind of went right from finishing season 2 to jumping right into developing season 3. So, it's sort of all Wednesday all the time at the moment.' Part 1 of 'Wednesday' season 2 concludes with a dramatic cliffhanger: Wednesday Addams confronts the Hyde monster, leading to a chaotic showdown. In the finale, Tyler (Hunter Doohan), the Hyde, fatally wounds Laurel Thornhill (Christina Ricci) and then throws Wednesday out of a window, leaving her unconscious and her fate uncertain (though, of course, she's going to be fine). The final four episodes will likely delve deeper into the mysteries introduced in part 1. Wednesday's visions suggest potential threats to her friends, including Enid (Emma Myers), and the true extent of the Hyde's powers will be explored now that Tyler has escaped. The Long-term Outcast Integration Study (L.O.I.S.) and the secretive Judi Spannegel (Heather Matarazzo) will also play key roles in the unfolding narrative, with some of these narrative threads potentially carrying over into season 3. Looking ahead, co-creators Gough and Millar have expressed their intention to continue exploring the rich tapestry of Nevermore Academy and its inhabitants (h/t/ Tudum): 'Our goal for season 3 is the same as it is for every season: to make it the best season of Wednesday we possibly can,' says Gough. Miller adds: 'We want to continue digging deeper into our characters while expanding the world of Nevermore and Wednesday. We will be seeing more Addams Family members and learning more family secrets in season 3!' Thankfully, we don't have too long to wait to see how season 2 concludes. You can stream the final four episodes on Netflix starting September 3. Follow Tom's Guide on Google News to get our up-to-date news, how-tos, and reviews in your feeds.

Every Netflix show canceled in 2025 (so far)

Over the years, Netflix has developed an (unwanted) reputation for being pretty quick to cancel shows. The streaming service certainly isn't afraid to axe a series after just a single season if it doesn't find a larger enough viewership right out of the gate. I was writing about this 'issue' in 2021, and in the years since, if anything, Netflix's reputation for trigger-happy cancelations has only become more pronounced. And the platform certainly won't be shedding that rep in 2025, as the last few months have already seen a skew of shows being canceled, including big original bets like 'The Residence' and 'Pulse.' Below, I'm rounding up every Netflix show canceled in 2025, from action-packed thrillers to sports docuseries offering an insight into elite competitions. These are the Netflix shows that won't be returning. Netflix was hoping to carve itself a slice of the 'Yellowstone' empire with 'Terrority', and while the early signs were positive (The Australian neo-Western show managed to hit No. 1 globally for a brief period), clearly the streaming service didn't see a long-term future pulling the plug after a single season. The show starred Anna Torv, Michael Dorman and Robert Taylor, and centered on a family running the world's largest cattle station. 'Terrority' also scored highly with critics and viewers, so this early cancellation seemingly wasn't tied to a lack of quality. Seasons: 1 Total episodes: 6 In the wake of 'Formula 1: Drive to Survive's' major success, Netflix went big on sports documentaries, and while some like the golf-focused 'Full Swing' appear to have found an audience, others haven't been quite so fortunate. 'Six Nations: Full Contact,' which offers an inside look at the world of professional rugby, was confirmed to be finished ahead of its second season in January, showing Netflix's lack of faith in the project. Seasons: 2Total episodes: 16 Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. The jokes write themselves with this one because 'Surviving Summer' didn't manage to survive cancellation. It did get two seasons under its belt before its fate was sealed, but the teen drama never achieved the popularity of similar shows like 'Outer Banks' or 'Ginny & Georgia.' It saw a rebellious teen named Summer (Sky Katz) forced to move from Brooklyn to Australia after being expelled from her high school. Seasons: 2Total episodes: 18 Another victim of Netflix's current cull of its sports docuseries, 'Tour de France: Unchained' won't be returning in the future. The series did manage three seasons, which is a respectable total, but I guess we'll all just have to enjoy more traditional coverage of next year's Tour de France as the Netflix cameras won't be there to capture the unseen drama. Seasons: 3Total episodes: 24 'The Recruit' was canceled less than two months after its second season debuted in late January. This one came as quite a shock, as the Noah Centineo-fronted action-thriller seemed popular, and a good alternative to Prime Video's 'Jack Reacher' show. However, perhaps the writing was on the wall for 'The Recruit' as its season 2 run was reduced from an initial eight-episode order to just six. Releasing so close to the similarly themed 'The Night Agent' has been pointed to as a potential cause. Seasons: 2Total episodes: 14 'Shafted' was a French spin-off from Netflix's Spanish show 'Alpha Males,' but like many spin-offs, it wasn't able to capture the same interest. The synopsis reads 'A group of four middle-aged male friends navigates the complexities of love, life and career challenges in modern-day Paris,' which, to be honest, is such a generic setup for a show that I'm not particularly surprised it only scored a single season. I can't see a hook. Seasons: 1Total episodes: 6 Netflix may have hoped it would have another 'Bridgerton' on its hands with 'The Lady's Companion,' a Spanish period drama with plenty of frothy romance. Sadly, viewers weren't swept away by this one. Its reception was muted, and it barely registered on the Netflix charts. Of course, I don't foresee this being the streaming service's last stab at creating another smash-hit period drama, so if you enjoyed 'The Lady's Companion' and wanted a second season, something of a similar ilk is bound to come along pretty soon. Seasons: 1Total episodes: 8 'Kaala Paani's' axing feels particularly cruel. The Indian survival-thriller series debuted in October 2023, and a second season was confirmed shortly afterwards. However, earlier this year, reportedly just a few days before production on the follow-up season was due to begin, Netflix opted to cancel the show due to budgetary concerns. If these reports are accurate, this cancellation is quite harsh on both the creative team behind 'Kaala Paani' and the show's fans who were patiently waiting for season 2 to premiere. Seasons: 1Total episodes: 7 Ahead of release, I thought 'The Residence' would be the next big thing on Netflix. It comes from Shonda Rhimes, a Netflix star after helming the uber-popular 'Bridgerton,' and it's a detective mystery in the vein of the 'Knives Out' movie franchise. On paper, that sounded like a recipe for a winner, but instead, the show ended after just one season. At least the core mystery was wrapped up in that single season, but I'd have loved an anthology approach with each season seeing Uzo Aduba's investigator solving a new mystery. Seasons: 1Total episodes: 8 'Grey's Anatomy' will premiere its 22nd season in October, but Netflix's latest attempt to get in on the enduringly popular medical drama craze won't even make it to season 2. 'Pulse' was canned back in July after a single 10-episode run. The show starred the ever-excellent Willa Fitzgerald, and centered on the lives (and loves) of a medical team at a trauma center in Miami. Perhaps all the hype around HBO Max's 'The Pitt' stole 'Pulse's' thunder a little. Seasons: 1Total episodes: 10 Arnold Schwarzenegger and Monica Barbaro's action-comedy series 'FUBAR' always seemed better suited to the movie format to me, and with poor reviews across its two-season run, I can't say I was very surprised to see it canceled over the summer. The show saw Arnie and Barbaro play a father and daughter who both work for the CIA, unbeknownst to each other. When teamed up on a mission, their father-daughter dynamic causes problems and hilarious hijinks. Seasons: 2Total episodes: 16
