Georgina Rodriguez has shared reflections on her role as a mother to Cristiano Ronaldo's son while the couple enjoyed a family holiday ahead of their anticipated wedding. Rodriguez and the footballer are rumored to be tying the knot at Funchal Cathedral next week, with the reception planned at the five-star Savoy Palace hotel.
The couple recently took a pre-wedding trip with Cristiano Ronaldo Jr., Rodriguez's fiancé and his 16-year-old son. Rodriguez posted photos from the trip on Instagram, accompanying them with captions that highlighted their family time. She expressed her affection for her stepson, whose biological mother is not publicly known, and for whom Ronaldo has full custody.
Rodriguez described the holiday as a "special time" shared between her, Ronaldo, and his son, referencing past summer trips together. She also shared details about their meals, including a favorite grilled ribeye steak.
The couple has two daughters together, Alana and Bella, and welcomed twins Eva Maria and Mateo via surrogacy. Their daughter Bella had a twin brother, Angel, who passed away shortly after birth.
While earlier reports suggested a wedding at the Quinta da Regaleira estate in Sintra, these rumors were cast into doubt when the venue remained open to the public. The Sun has reported that the ceremony will take place at Funchal Cathedral, a choice that holds personal significance as it is Ronaldo's hometown.
Sources indicate that guests at the Savoy Palace hotel have been informed that two floors and several bar areas will be unavailable on Friday and Saturday due to the event. Funchal, Ronaldo's birthplace, also features a bronze statue and a hotel named in his honor. Despite his estimated net worth of $1.2 billion to $1.4 billion, Ronaldo's return to his hometown is seen as sentimental, given his upbringing in poverty.
Rodriguez and Ronaldo have been seen wearing large diamond rings in the lead-up to the presumed wedding. The couple became engaged last August after eight years together. Rodriguez met Ronaldo in 2016 while working as a sales assistant at a Gucci store in Madrid. They later moved to Saudi Arabia after Ronaldo signed with Al-Nassr in 2022.
