When not remodeled into a statue, Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the most beautiful footballers in the world. So it’s little surprise many of the most beautiful women in the world have made the claim to fame of being a Cristiano Ronaldo girlfriend.
Ronaldo has never been a stranger to tabloids reporting on his love life, from rumored encounters with Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton to confirmed relationships with models, swimsuit models and lingerie models.
The latest Cristiano Ronaldo girlfriend is Georgina Rodriguez, who gave birth to the Real Madrid star’s fourth child. (Ronaldo has never revealed the identity of the mother of his first child, a son, and his second and third children were born to a surrogate mother.) Ronaldo has been with Rodriguez since November 2016, and maybe, with their child together, she will be his last girlfriend for the foreseeable future.
Until then, this list of every confirmed Cristiano Ronaldo girlfriend will be complete, at least for his partners since he turned pro in 2002. We also touch on some of his rumored relationships below.
