The first love affair that Ronaldo made public during his time in Portugal was Jordana Jardel - the younger sister of striker Mario Jardel. He dated Jordana for over a year, during which he played for Sporting Lisbon.
After the breakup, in 2005, Ronaldo joined Manchester United and met Merche. The love story of the football star and the Portuguese female MC attracted public attention, because at that time, Merche was a familiar face on television.
The two dated for a year before gradually separating and breaking up in 2006. The reason was determined to be due to geographical distance and busy times, which prevented the couple from having much time for each other. While Ronaldo is busy developing his career, Merche also focuses on hosting.
After that, Ronaldo was rumored to be dating reality TV star in England - Imogen Thomas. Also in 2007, he dated Gemma Atkinson, and was spotted appearing at his home many times. But the love story that was discussed by the media and fans ended quickly.
At the end of 2007, paparazzi caught Ronaldo giving a kiss to Bollywood's top star - Bipasha Basu. The two met at an event, attending a nightclub party. Although they did not go far in their relationship, the couple decided to become close friends.
In 2008, Ronaldo had a short relationship with Nereida - a Spanish model and nurse. Nereida revealed that the two even intended to get married, but in the end could not continue to be together.
Against Georgina, the Portuguese football star's most serious and long-lasting relationship was with Irina Shayk. The couple met through an advertising photo shoot, and maintained their relationship for 5 years. From 2010 to 2015, Irina often appeared next to Ronaldo, from awards ceremonies, fashion weeks to events.
However, in 2015, rumors of cracks appeared, the reason being believed to be due to a busy schedule and differences in life. However, the reason for the breakup has not been announced.
Since then, Ronaldo's companion has been Georgina Rodriguez. The football superstar met his girlfriend for the first time at the Gucci store in Madrid - where Georgina worked. After that, the two reunited at a brand event and started dating.
Georgina and Ronaldo have two daughters, Alana (7 years old) and Bella (3 years old). The couple raised 5 children together, including Cristiano Junior (15 years old) and twin Mateo - Eva Maria (8 years old). Mateo and Eva Maria were born on maternity leave, while Junior's mother's identity has not been disclosed.
On August 11, 2025, Georgina confirmed Ronaldo's proposal with a large diamond ring. The photo was publicly shared on her personal page.
