Georgina Rodríguez's massive engagement ring from Cristiano Ronaldo is breaking the internet, with the rock estimated to be worth 7 figures
The bride-to-be posted the photo of the impressive diamond ring that broke the internet. Portuguese soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo and Argentine model Georgina Rodríguez announced their engagement on Monday after eight years of dating. The bride-to-be shared the momentous news in an Instagram post, with a photo of her massive sparkler of an engagement ring and the caption, written in Spanish: 'Yes, I do. In this and in all my lives.' The post has since broken the internet, with over 11.3 million likes as of Tuesday morning. The official details of Rodríguez's bling, like the number of carats and how much it's worth, have yet to be revealed by the power couple and their unknown jeweler, but that hasn't stopped jewelry experts from weighing in. Here's what we know so far about the 'four C's' (cut, clarity, color and carat) of the impressive diamond ring: What kind of cut is the diamond? Abdulla BelJafla, creative director of Gafla, who shared his insight with Vogue Arabia, said the main diamond in the center is an oval-cut, which maximizes its brilliance. 'A perfectly proportioned oval (with a 1.30–1.50 length-to-width ratio) offers symmetry on the hand,' he told the magazine. 'While many ovals exhibit the subtle 'bow-tie effect,' this piece appears to have exceptional light dispersion, minimizing it entirely.' How many estimated carats are there? Rodríguez's oval-cut diamond ring is approximately 37 carats in total, according to jewelry experts. The center oval stone weighs about 35 carats, Tobias Kormind, the managing director of 77 Diamonds in London, told People. He believes the center stone is flanked by oval stones on the sides, about one carat each, set in platinum. BelJafla also assessed the stunner to be about 37 carats total and estimated the center diamond to be "between 22 and 30 carats," he told Vogue Arabia. Let's get down to brass tacks. How much do we think this ring is worth? It's estimated to be worth seven figures. 'If the diamond is natural and of exceptional quality in the D-F color range with flawless or near-flawless clarity, its value could easily exceed around $2 million," Laura Taylor, engagement ring specialist at Lorel Diamonds, told People. Meanwhile, Kormind estimates that Rodríguez is carrying around a $5 million ring on her finger. 'Experts value the ring between U.S. $4 million and U.S. $5 million,' BelJafla told Vogue Arabia, 'given the size, flawless clarity, and D color of the stones. … A ring like this is quite rare if it's a natural diamond.' What else do we know about the engaged couple? Ronaldo, 40, and Rodríguez, 31, have been together for eight years. They have a total of four children together: twins Eva Maria and Mateo, 8 (born via surrogacy); daughter Alana, 7; and daughter Bella, 3. Ronaldo also has a 15-year-old son, Cristiano Jr., from a previous relationship. The couple previously announced the death of Bella's twin brother, Ángel, in April 2022. Solve the daily Crossword

Revealed: Georgina Rodríguez's oval diamond engagement ring's value in dirhams
After eight years together, Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodríguez are officially headed down the aisle — and the engagement ring is every bit as dazzling as fans imagined. On August 11, 2025, Rodríguez confirmed the news on Instagram with a close-up shot of her left hand sporting a massive oval-cut diamond. Her caption, translated from Spanish, read: "Yes I do. In this and in all my lives." While the couple has yet to reveal official details, jewellery expert Benjamin Khordipour of Estate Diamond Jewelry estimates the stone to be a 22-carat oval diamond, graded H color with VS1 clarity. "The mounting is set in platinum and two ovals weighing two carats each," he told Brides magazine. "The price of this ring is $1,200,000." The staggering amount estimates to Dh4,407,582. It's a fitting choice for one of the world's greatest athletes of all time. The couple has been open about their relationship journey in Rodríguez's Netflix series I Am Georgina. In one episode, friends teased her about when Ronaldo would propose, even singing Jennifer Lopez's 'The Ring or When' at her. Ronaldo, meanwhile, hinted he was waiting for 'that click' before making it official. 'It could be in a year, it could be in six months, or it could be in a month,' he said. 'I'm 1000 percent sure that it'll happen.'
