Overview
- Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodríguez announced their engagement on August 11, 2025 with an Instagram post showing a large oval diamond.
- In a new Elle interview, Rodríguez says she was so surprised by the ring that she left it in her room and only examined it the next day in sunlight.
- Jewelry experts cited in media reports estimate the diamond at roughly 15–37 carats with a value in the several‑million‑dollar range.
- Ronaldo previously told Piers Morgan the proposal was a spontaneous 1 a.m. moment that their daughters unexpectedly encouraged.
- Both partners say they want a small, private ceremony, and Ronaldo has indicated they plan to marry after the 2026 World Cup, with Portuguese outlets suggesting a possible summer 2026 celebration in Madeira.
