Georgina Rodriguez shared her thoughts after her engagement to Cristiano Ronaldo.
The Portuguese footballer, 40, proposed to the Argentinian-Spanish model, 31, with a $3m (£2.2m) 30-carat engagement ring back in August after a nine-year courtship.
In an interview with ELLE SpainGeorgina joked that a ring like that was the ‘least he could do’ after waiting so long to pop the question.
She said: ‘It’s beautiful. It’s the least he could offer me after ten years of waiting (laughs). The truth is, when he proposed, it was the last thing on my mind.
‘It took me a long time to work the huge stone he gave me. I was so shocked I left it in my room and didn’t open it in sunlight until the next day (laughs).’
The couple have been in a relationship since 2016 and have daughters Alana, seven, and two-year-old Bella together. Bella’s twin brother Ángel died tragically during childbirth.
Georgina is also stepmother to Cristiano’s other three children, Cristiano Ronaldo Jr., 15, and twins Eva and Mateo, eight, who were born through a surrogate.
The couple has not ruled out having more children.
