Rumour or fact? Cristiano Ronaldo dated THIS Bollywood diva: Check the viral kissing photo that upset actress' boyfriend
Cristiano Ronaldo is now engaged to his partner of 8 years, Georgina Rodríguez. On August 12, Georgina shared an Instagram photo showing their hands and her huge diamond ring. She wrote, 'Sí, quiero' ('Yes, I do'). According to estimates, the rare stone could be worth around $3 million. Meanwhile, fans are wondering if the 40-year-old was married before. Here's the truth. Cristiano Ronaldo has never been married. In fact, this is the first time he got officially engaged. CR7 met Georgina in 2016 at a Gucci store in Madrid. Georgina is an Argentine-Spanish model and entrepreneur. Ronaldo and Georgina have four children together: twins Eva Maria and Mateo (born in 2017 via surrogacy), daughter Alana Martina (born in November 2017) and daughter Bella Esmeralda (born in April 2022). They also experienced the tragic loss of Bella's twin brother, Ángel, during childbirth in 2022. Ronaldo's eldest son, Cristiano Jr., is from a previous relationship. Neither Ronaldo nor his family has ever publicly revealed the identity of the son's mother. In 2010, Ronaldo announced the birth of his son on social media. He also said that the mother wished to remain anonymous. Cristiano Jr considers Georgina a mother figure, but she is not his biological mother. Here are some high-profile relationships Ronaldo had before Georgina: Cristiano Ronaldo and supermodel Irina Shayk started dating in 2009. They met at a photoshoot for Armani Exchange. In 2011, rumours circulated that Ronaldo proposed to Shayk during a Valentine's Day trip to New York. However, the engagement was never officially confirmed. Irina Shayk dated actor Bradley Cooper after her breakup with Ronaldo in 2015. Cristiano Ronaldo dated Spanish model Nereida Gallardo in 2008 while playing for Manchester United. They met in a nightclub while Ronaldo was on vacation in Mallorca. While dating, they took luxurious trips to Sardinia and Rome. Nevertheless, they broke up within a few months. Cristiano Ronaldo has been linked to many other celebrities, including Kim Kardashian, Paris Hilton, Gemma Atkinson, Jordana Jardel, Soraia Chaves and Nereida Gallardo. He has even been linked to pop star Dua Lipa. In 2007, Cristiano Ronaldo and Bollywood diva Bipasha Basu were photographed kissing at a Lisbon event. The picture went viral. Later in an interview, Bipasha said it was a 'dream come true' to meet Cristiano Ronaldo. 'After the event, we went out clubbing, and that was simply fantastic. He is so cute, and it was strange when he called me cute. He is a friend now, and he has promised me that I will be invited to all his matches,' Bollywoodshaadis quoted her as saying. According to the publication, the viral kissing photo upset her then-boyfriend John Abraham. He even thought of breaking up with her. However, they patched up, only to split eight years after being in a live-in relationship. Neither Bipasha nor Ronaldo ever confirmed dating each other.

It looks like things are finally going back to normal in the Kakar-Ibrahim household, as actor Dipika Kakar continues her recovery after undergoing treatment for stage 2 liver cancer. She released another vlog on her YouTube channel, Dipika Ki Duniya, in which her family counted down the days to her birthday, surprising her with gifts every day. Among all the meaningful and well thought-out gifts, one stood tall as the best one, which made the actor break down in front of the camera. The vlog opens up with Dipika unboxing a gift bag with a post-it note on it, which read '3 days to go.' The bag holds a brand new Armani Exchange t-shirt, which Dipika really likes and jokes about, saying, 'Ab toh fit bhi ajayegi' (Now it will fit). The bag has a scented candle in it as well, which again is appreciated by the actor. The next day, Dipika opens up another present given by her father-in-law, and it's a traditional Indian dress. He tells her to call him on WhatsApp to see the next present, and upon calling, Dipika notices that he has changed his profile picture and put up a picture of them together. She revels with joy and thanks him for the gesture.

I don't drink a lot of coffee these days, but the mug is ingrained in my habits. I also eat khakhras for my evening snack, and the house is always equipped with several different kinds.' After this the actor opens her presents for the day, and first she opens a small white box which has a 'tree of life' charm in it for her watch. Along with it there is a letter written by her father-in-law, and Dipika is hardly able to contain her emotions reading it. In the letter, her father-in-law tells her to look at the tree of life whenever she feels low or sad and tells her, 'Tum keval hamarai family ki jaan hi nahi, par shaan bhi ho. Tum Ibrahim parivar ki jadh ho.' (You aren't just the life of the family; you are its pride as well. You are the root of the Ibrahim household.' We later see some more heartfelt moments of Dipika with her son and husband, as she wears the aforementioned suit on her birthday and cuts the cake as the whole family celebrates. The Sasural Simar Ka actor has gone through a lot in recent times, and the vlog shows how her family is standing right beside her on this journey to recovery.

Cristiano Ronaldo's romantic past: Timeline of his high-profile relationships, from rumoured fling with Kim Kardashian to alleged link with Bipasha Basu
Cristiano isn't just one of football's greatest icons. He's also a staple in celebrity gossip columns due to his global fame, lavish lifestyle and high profile personal life. Beyond his accomplishments on the pitch, Ronaldo has frequently captured public attention for his appearances at high-profile events, brand partnerships and relationships with glamorous women ranging from supermodels and actresses to television personalities. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now While some of these romances have been long-term and public, others remain surrounded by rumours, whispers and paparazzi snapshots. Whether confirmed or speculative, his dating history is as headline-making as his football career. Let's take a closer look at the timeline of his most talked-about love interests and rumoured companions. Georgina Rodriguez (2016 to present): Long-term partner and mother of his daughters Ronaldo met Spanish-Argentine model Georgina Rodríguez in 2016 while she was working at a Gucci store in Madrid. Their connection was instant, and the relationship blossomed into a serious commitment. Together, they have two daughters, Alana Martina and Bella Esmeralda, and Georgina helps raise Ronaldo's other children as well. She has become a public figure in her own right, with a strong presence on social media and her own Netflix docuseries. Despite the intense media scrutiny, their bond has remained strong, making her Ronaldo's longest and most enduring relationship to date. Irina Shayk (2010 to 2015): High-profile power couple of the 2010s Ronaldo and Russian supermodel Irina Shayk met during a photoshoot for Armani Exchange and quickly became one of the most talked-about celebrity couples. For nearly five years, they appeared at red carpet events, fashion shows and football award ceremonies together. Their break-up in 2015 was reportedly due to conflicting priorities and career demands. Despite their split, both parties have continued to thrive independently, and fans still remember their time together as Ronaldo's most glamorous public relationship before Georgina. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Nereida Gallardo (2008): Short but heavily publicised Spanish fling Spanish model and socialite Nereida Gallardo had a brief relationship with Ronaldo in 2008 during his time at Manchester United. While their romance lasted only a few months, it was widely followed by tabloids across Europe. Their break-up wasn't without drama, as Gallardo spoke publicly about the relationship afterwards, adding to the media frenzy that surrounded Ronaldo at the time. Gemma Atkinson (2007): A brief romance with British TV fame British actress and model Gemma Atkinson was romantically linked to Ronaldo in 2007. Though the relationship was short-lived, it gained attention in both the UK and Portugal. Atkinson, best known for her work on British soap operas and reality shows, later described their time together as 'innocent' and 'low-key,' suggesting that the media may have exaggerated the romance. Merche Romero (2005 to 2006): Early relationship during his Manchester United days One of Ronaldo's earliest public relationships was with Portuguese TV presenter Merche Romero. Their relationship, which lasted roughly a year, became a favourite topic for the Portuguese press. Despite a nine-year age gap, the two were often photographed together at events and on holiday. Eventually, the couple broke up, and Ronaldo later stated that the relationship had become too difficult to maintain due to media pressure. Kim Kardashian (2010, rumoured fling): Reality TV meets football stardom In 2010, Ronaldo was rumoured to be romantically involved with American media personality Kim Kardashian. The speculation began when they were spotted dining together in Madrid during Kardashian's visit to Spain. Although neither party confirmed the relationship, the paparazzi photos and timing sparked global headlines. If the fling happened, it was very brief, and both moved on quickly to other partners. Andressa Urach (brief romance): Brazilian model's claim that made headlines Brazilian model and TV personality Andressa Urach claimed in interviews that she had a short-lived affair with Ronaldo in 2013. She alleged that they met in Madrid and spent time together privately. Ronaldo never commented on the story, but the press in Brazil and Portugal widely covered the claim. Whether true or not, the tale added to Ronaldo's image as a global heartthrob attracting admirers from around the world. Paris Hilton, Rita Pereira, Soraia Chaves, Mirella Grisales: Rumoured romantic links across continents Throughout the years, Ronaldo has been linked, often by paparazzi or tabloids, to several other celebrities, including American socialite Paris Hilton, Portuguese actresses Rita Pereira and Soraia Chaves, and Colombian model Mirella Grisales. While there is little concrete evidence of actual relationships, photos and public sightings led to rumours of casual flings or flirtations. These stories added to his international appeal and reputation as a bachelor before he settled down with Georgina. Bipasha Basu (rumoured connection): Bollywood buzz over a friendly moment Indian actress Bipasha Basu made headlines in 2007 after she was photographed with Ronaldo during an event in Lisbon. The images suggested a moment of closeness, which quickly sparked rumours of a romantic link. However, Bipasha later clarified that they were merely friends and that the encounter was innocent and overblown by the media. Nevertheless, the buzz around their interaction became a hot topic in Indian tabloids at the time. Cristiano Ronaldo's love life has always been in the public eye, often making as many headlines as his performances on the pitch. From enduring relationships like the one he shares with Georgina Rodríguez to fleeting rumours involving global stars, his romantic timeline reflects a life lived under constant scrutiny. Despite the spotlight, Ronaldo has managed to balance fame, fatherhood and personal relationships with remarkable poise, showing that even one of the world's most famous athletes isn't immune to matters of the heart.

Giorgio Armani turns 91 and promises a comeback this September

Legendary designer Giorgio Armani just turned 91, and he's not slowing down anytime soon.

In the letter, published across several Italian newspapers, Armani said, 'In the last few weeks, I strongly felt the embrace of those who were thinking of me… It wasn't easy for me not to hear your applause live. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, and I'll see you again in September.' Now that's how you make an exit and a comeback.
