Cristiano Ronaldo's fiancee Georgina Rodriguez 'was sacked from job' because of Al Nassr superstar

Georgina Rodriguez was only eight months into the job.

Georgina Rodriguez was dismissed from her day job because of Cristiano Ronaldo.

Ronaldo proposed to long-time partner Georgina, who shared a touching post on social media to confirm their engagement.

She shared a picture of a large ring, accompanied with the caption: "Yes I do. In this and in all my lives."

Anna Whiting, the general manager of jewellery experts Cushla Whiting, told ELLE magazine the oval-cut ring is likely to be upwards of 25 carats, worth a staggering amount.

Marriage has been on Ronaldo's mind for a couple of years, having told Piers Morgan in 2022 that he and Georgina 'deserve' it.

"I'm not thinking now about that but I can see in the future I think I deserve, she deserves, but it's something that's not coming now in my plans but in the future is yes, I want," he explained.

The couple have been together for nine years after they met at a Gucci shop in Madrid, where Georgina was working. Ronaldo was playing for Real Madrid at the time.

She worked at a sales assistant when they first met before meeting at a brand event a few days after to 'talk in a relaxed atmosphere'.

"It was love at first sight for both," Georgina told The Sun.

But she was let go from her job in December 2016 after just eight months.

That's because football fans swarmed the store where she worked, trying to take pictures.

Bosses feared it would put off their high-end clients, prompting them to relieve her of her duties.

After her relationship with Ronaldo blossomed, Georgina quickly became a social media influencer, amassing over 67 million followers on Instagram.

She is also a model with Madrid-based agency Uno Model.

Who is Georgina Rodriguez?

Georgina is the mother of Ronaldo's fourth child and his youngest daughter.

She was born on January 27, 1994, in Jaca, Spain, to a Spanish mum and Argentine dad.

Aged just 17, she got a job as an au pair for a family in Bristol.

The 31-year-old learned dance before changing careers to modelling after studying English in London.

She previously told XLSemanal: "I wanted to work in luxury and I understood that for that I had to speak English."
