CRISTIANO RONALDO has finally become engaged to long-term partner Georgina Rodriguez.
Georgina, 31, revealed the news by posting a picture of her huge engagement ring to Instagram.
The superstar couple have been together for nine years, but Ronaldo has previously been hesitant to pop the question.
Confirming that the Portuguese star had finally proposed, Georgina posted a picture of her hand, complete with huge sparkler on her ring finger, on top of Ronaldo’s.
The model captioned her snap: “Yes I do. In this and in all my lives.”
Georgina sparked engagement speculation back in April by posting a picture of a different ring on her finger.
And last December, while attending the Globe Soccer Awards in Dubai, Ronaldo set tongues wagging by saying: “It’s a big pleasure to win this trophy. My oldest son is here, my wife [Georgina] is here.”
Previously addressing why he had not yet married his long-term girlfriend, Ronaldo, 40, said: “I always tell her, ‘when we get that click.’ 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. I’m 1,000 per cent sure that it’ll happen.”
Georgina, meanwhile, said of her pals: “They’re always joking about the wedding. ‘When is the wedding?’
“Since Jennifer Lopez’s song ‘The Ring Or When’ came out, they started singing it to me. And well, this is not up to me.”
Ronaldo and Georgina have two daughters together, Alana, seven, and Bella, three – while Bella’s twin brother Angel tragically died during birth.
Georgina has also helped to raise Ronaldo’s other three children; Cristiano Jr, 15, Mateo, eight, and Eva Maria, eight.
The couple met in 2016, when Georgina was working at a Gucci shop in Madrid.
On their first meeting, the influencer went on to admit: “I was finally able to leave the shop to go home three hours later than I should have, and as I was getting ready to leave Cristiano came in with his eldest son and some friends.
“Let’s just say it was butterflies in my stomach.”
Ronaldo and Georgina’s family base is now in Riyadh, as he plays for Saudi side Al-Nassr.
Georgina posted her engagement update to Instagram from the Saudi capital.
