  • Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodriguez have been together since 2017
  • The Argentine model opened up on her first meeting with Ronaldo at a store in Spain

Cristiano Ronaldo's relationship life seems to have settled down since he started dating the Argentinian born, Spanish model Georgina Rodriguez in 2017, whom he met in 2016.

The Portuguese international was involved in a series of affairs with different women before meeting Georgina. Even though the two are unmarried, they have moved in together since that time and birthed kids together.

They have relocated to Saudi Arabia after Ronaldo completed a blockbuster move to Al-Nassr following the termination of his Manchester United contract.

Georgina reveals first meeting with Ronaldo

The Spanish model was living a modest life before she met the Portuguese superstar, who changed her life and showered her with luxury.

She opened up in an interview with El Hormiguero, as quoted by Sportskeeda, on how she felt when she saw the former Manchester United forward in person and could barely look at him.

''He's such a handsome man. When I saw him he was so handsome I felt embarrassed to look at him,'' she said. ''I was finally able to leave the shop to go home three hours later than I should have and as I was getting ready to leave Cristiano came in with his eldest son and some friends.
''Let's just say it was butterflies in my stomach.''

Ronaldo changed Georgina's life

Sports Brief earlier reported that Georgina claimed her life changed when she met Ronaldo, as she was living in awful conditions when she first moved to Spain.

She was living in a £250 per month apartment in Madrid, which was formerly a store house, and had extreme conditions in summer and winter.

The couple's first apartment in Saudi Arabia before moving to a luxurious family mansion was a floor at Four Seasons Hotel and cost a staggering £250,000 per month.
