Although Ronaldo has reassured both Rodriguez and fans of the couple that he fully intends on getting married at some point in the future, he revealed that he is waiting for the right moment.
Speaking in the first episode of the 2022 Netflix docuseries "I Am Georgina," Ronaldo revealed: "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 1000% sure that it will happen."
Earlier in the episode, Rodriguez revealed that her close friends and family regularly tease her about marrying the former Manchester United and Real Madrid star after being with him for nine years.
She added: "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, it's not up to me"
Since the documentary has released, many fans have speculated that Ronaldo and Rodriguez may have got engaged and married in secret, with the footballing great dropping several hints on social media.
In a caption wishing his partner a happy birthday, he referred to Rodriguez as his wife, writing: "For the mother, partner, friend, my wife... happy birthday, love.
"Your light illuminates us and your love infects us,' he added, alongside a heart emoji."
Similarly, Ronaldo called Rodriguez his wife when thanking her for her support while accepting an award at the 2024 Globe Soccer Awards in Dubai in December.
During the ceremony the Al Nassr striker was given both the Best Middle Eastern player and the Top Goalscorer of All Time awards.
In his acceptance speech, Ronaldo further added to the rumours, saying: "It’s a big pleasure to win this trophy. My oldest son is here, my wife [Georgina] is here."
