Reports indicate the private ceremony was held in Cascais, a scenic coastal resort near Lisbon, Portugal.
The couple's five children were present to witness their parents exchange vows, as reported by Sky Sports.
Ronaldo and Georgina's road to the Altar
Ronaldo and Georgina first went public with their relationship in 2016, and their bond deepened steadily over the years.
The couple announced their engagement, sealing it with an oval-shaped diamond ring estimated to weigh around 35 carats.
They wed exactly one year after making that engagement official.
The timing of the wedding carries its own story. Back in November 2025, Ronaldo hinted that he wanted the ceremony to follow the 2026 FIFA World Cup, even expressing hope that Portugal's World Cup trophy would be featured in the celebrations.
That dream was cut short when Portugal were eliminated in the round of 16, falling to Spain.
Despite the disappointment on the pitch, the celebration went ahead.
Ronaldo is widely regarded as one of the greatest footballers in history, having claimed the Ballon d'Or five times across his storied career.
