Cristiano Ronaldo Proposes to Georgina Rodriguez With Colossal Diamond

After eight years together, legendary soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo and model/influencer Georgina Rodríguez are officially engaged — and their eye-popping diamond ring is making headlines across the globe.

Rodríguez, 31, revealed the news Monday on Instagram, posting a photo of herself wearing a colossal oval-cut diamond flanked by two smaller ovals in a platinum setting.

“Yes, I do. In this and in all my lives,” she wrote in Spanish.

Jewelry experts estimate the center stone could weigh as much as 37 carats and be valued upward of $5 million, placing it among the largest and most valuable celebrity engagement diamonds of all time.

It joins the ranks of former First Lady Jackie Kennedy’s 40.42-carat marquise diamond from shipping magnate Aristotle Onassis in 1968, singer Mariah Carey’s 35-carat emerald-cut diamond from media mogul James Packer in 2016, and starlet Elizabeth Taylor’s famed 33.19-carat Asscher-cut diamond from actor Richard Burton, also in 1968.

Ronaldo, 40, is currently the highest-paid athlete in the world, topping Forbes’ 2025 list with $275 million in annual earnings. Over the course of his storied career as a prolific goal scorer for top clubs, such as Manchester United, Real Madrid and Juventus, as well as his national team, Portugal, he has surpassed $1.5 billion in total income. He's now a standout player for Al-Nassr in the Saudi Arabia league. 

The couple’s love story began in 2016 when Ronaldo met Rodríguez at a Gucci store in Madrid, where she worked as a sales assistant. They made their public debut in 2017 and have since built a family together, raising two daughters, Alana and Bella, as well as Ronaldo’s three other children. They endured tragedy in 2022 when Bella’s twin brother, Ángel, passed away during childbirth.

While Ronaldo’s fame has long been global, Rodríguez has built her own celebrity profile. The Argentine-born model has fronted campaigns for Gucci, Prada, Guess and Chanel, walked the red carpet at the 2025 Met Gala, and is a fixture in the fashion world’s front rows.

No wedding date has been announced, but fans are already speculating about what promises to be one of the year’s most talked-about celebrity ceremonies — illuminated by one history's most dazzling engagement rings.
