TURIN, ITALY—Soccer icon Cristiano Ronaldo proposed to Georgina Rodríguez with a dazzling, multi-million-dollar diamond ring, ending months of speculation. The Ronaldo-proposes-Georgina-diamond moment was shared on Instagram Monday, showcasing her 10-15 carat oval sparkler.
“Yes, forever,” Rodríguez, 31, captioned, her hand on Ronaldo’s. Gemologist Olivia Landau told Daily Mail the ring could be worth millions, rivaling Lauren Sánchez Bezos’ $4 million diamond. Sánchez commented, “So happy for you!” For more on celebrity engagements, visit People.

On I Am Georgina (Netflix), Rodríguez laughed off friends’ jabs about being unmarried. Ronaldo said he waited for “that click.” “It’ll happen,” he promised, calling her his “wife.” Their love grew stronger than expected, he admitted.
