It was during one of the episodes of I Am Georgina on Netflix when Georgina spoke openly about her true feelings on marriage:
“To tell you the truth, I don’t think our situation will change much because I feel very loved and I already have the most important thing with Cristiano, which are our wonderful children and the love he gives me every day.”
She also joked that her friends would often sing Jennifer Lopez’s El Anillo to her: “They’re always teasing me about the wedding—ever since Jennifer Lopez released that song. They’ve sung it to me countless times!”
It was Cristiano Ronaldo’s turn, in a video that resurfaced on social media, to drop hints about the ideal moment to make his engagement official:
“When I feel the click, just like it’s happened with many things in our life—and she knows what I’m talking about. It could be in a year, in six months, or in a month, but I’m 1000% sure it will happen,”—a moment that finally arrived this summer, leaving everyone eager to know the exact date of this grand wedding.
