Rodríguez, 31, and Ronaldo, 40, have two daughters together — Alana (7) and Bella (3).
Ronaldo also has a 15-year-old son, Cristiano Jr, and eight-year-old twins Eva and Mateo, who were born via surrogacy.
In 2022, they suffered the loss of Bella’s twin brother, Ángel, during childbirth.
Ronaldo and Rodriguez first crossed paths in 2016 when she was working at a Gucci store in Madrid, with the footballer strutting his stuff for Real Madrid at the time.

Prior to that meeting, she was living a quiet life and was far removed from the global spotlight.
However, since then, she has transformed into a successful model, entrepreneur, and reality TV star.
Rodríguez’s net worth is now estimated at around £7.9million, thanks to a portfolio of income streams that includes luxury brand campaigns, social media partnerships, modelling, and her own business ventures.
She has fronted campaigns for Gucci, Prada, and Chanel, appeared on the covers of Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, and Elle, and amassed millions of Instagram followers who see her collaborate with some of the world’s top beauty and fashion labels.

In 2022, she took her brand even further by launching Soy Georgina (I Am Georgina), a Netflix reality series that followed her life behind the scenes.
Fans were given glimpses of everything from her work commitments to family moments with Ronaldo and their children.
She has also launched her own athleisure brand, adding another dimension to her growing business empire.
While Rodríguez’s wealth is impressive, Ronaldo’s financial status remains unmatched in the sporting world.
With an estimated net worth of over £790m, the Al-Nassr star reportedly earns £177m annually in salary and match bonuses, plus around £39m from endorsements and commercial deals.
His record-breaking move from Manchester United to Real Madrid in 2009 cost the Spanish giants over £80m, which made him the most-expensive footballer in the world at the time.
Ronaldo holds other records, too.
He has more goals than any other player in history, with 938 strikes to his name. His long-term rival, Lionel Messi, sits second on the list with 874.
