Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodriguez are planning to tie the knot in a dreamy island wedding next year.
According to Daily Mail, a Portuguese outlet reported that the star footballer, Ronaldo, would marry his fiancée on his island of Madeira next summer after the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
As per the report, the celebrity couple’s wedding ceremony would take place at Funchal Cathedral, while the reception will be hosted at a fancy hotel.
The location holds a special significance for the five-time Ballon d’Or award winner, as it is just 1.5 miles away from the hospital where he was born and three miles away from Nacional da Madeira, a team he played for at a younger age.
Former Manchester United and Real Madrid star proposed to his long-time girlfriend and Spanish-Argentine model with a £1.5 million worth diamond ring in August this year.
Sharing the details of the proposal on the Piers Morgan show, the 40-year-old said, “It was like 1am. My daughters were in bed sleeping. One of my friends gave me the ring to offer Gio, and as I was giving her the ring, my two kids came in and said, ‘Daddy, you're going to give the ring to Mum, and you're going to ask her to get married.’”
“I said, ‘Wow, this is the right moment to say yes.’ It was the time. I knew that I was going to do it one day, but I hadn't planned to do it then. Because my daughters said that and my friends were filming, it was what I wanted, and I offered (the ring). I didn't (get on one knee) because I wasn't prepared, but it was a beautiful moment. I made a speech,” the Al Nassr star continued.
Ronaldo, who has been together with the 31-year-old entrepreneur since 2016, is father to five children: Cristiano Jr, born in 2010, and Eva and Mateo, via surrogacy in 2017. CR7 shares two daughters, Alana Martin and Bella Esmeralda, with Georgina.
