Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodríguez marked their 10th anniversary by getting married in the living room of their home in Portugal, choosing a private ceremony with their children over the grand wedding Rodríguez once imagined.

The couple, who have been together for over a decade, explained that the decision was about creating a personal memory their family could carry with them. In an interview with Vogue, Rodríguez said they wanted the wedding to take place in the same space where they share everyday life.

“We’ve chosen to do it in the living room of our house here, where we have breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and where we live the reality of our lives,” she said.

“I want the children to think, ‘Something wonderful happened at this table, the wedding vows of our parents,’” Rodríguez said, explaining why they chose to exchange vows at home rather than in a more elaborate setting.

Ronaldo appeared to embrace the simplicity of the idea, although he jokingly pointed out that the couple might eventually change the room’s décor. The intimate ceremony also reflected Rodríguez’s changing perspective on what a wedding should look like.

“When I was a little girl,” she said, “I dreamt of the biggest castle, the biggest carriage, the longest dress, a crown full of diamonds. And now I’m saying: no.”

Instead, she wanted to celebrate privately with Ronaldo and their children. “I want something intimate, with my partner and our children, at home,” she said, adding that grand houses, cars, islands and other luxuries were already within their reach. For her, an intimate family celebration felt more unusual.

Rodríguez described the year as a “crazy” one filled with work commitments, competitions and family life, but she did not want their 10th anniversary to pass without celebrating it. She also told Vogue that they planned to have a bigger wedding with family and friends in the future.

Ronaldo and Rodríguez first met in 2016, when she was working at a Gucci store in Madrid, and their relationship developed into one of football and celebrity culture’s most closely followed partnerships. Rodríguez announced their engagement on Instagram in August 2025.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodríguez are married. The longtime couple tied the knot in a civil ceremony on August 11 in Cascais, Portugal, surrounded by their five children.

The ceremony was described as a “private and intimate moment,” marking a new chapter for the couple after nearly a decade together. Ronaldo, and Rodríguez announced their engagement in August 2025, exactly one year before their wedding.

He shared the news on Instagram with a photo of their hands, showing off their wedding rings and the simple caption, “C❤️G.” The pair met in 2017, when Rodríguez was working as a sales assistant at Gucci. They made their red carpet debut later that year at the Best FIFA Football Awards in Zurich before making their relationship official on social media.

Over the years, their relationship grew into a family life that they largely shared with the public. They are parents to daughters Alana and Bella, twins Eva Maria and Mateo, and Ronaldo’s eldest son, Cristiano Jr., from a previous relationship. The couple also experienced the loss of Bella’s twin brother, Ángel, in 2022.

Ronaldo has previously spoken about how unexpectedly serious the relationship became. In I Am Georgina, Rodríguez’s Netflix series, he recalled initially being unsure where their romance would lead before eventually realising she was “the woman of my life.”

Their engagement came after years together. Rodríguez announced it on Instagram in August 2025 with a photograph showing her hand over Ronaldo’s and her oval-shaped diamond engagement ring. “Sí, quiero. En esta y en todas mis vidas,” she wrote, meaning, “Yes, I do. In this and in all my lives.”

Speaking about the proposal in a December 2025 interview with Elle Spain, Rodríguez said she was shocked when Ronaldo asked her to marry him. She also joked about the enormous engagement ring, calling it “the least he could offer me after 10 years of waiting.”

Now, after years of building a life and family together, Ronaldo and Rodríguez have officially become husband and wife in an intimate celebration in Portugal.

Brad Pitt has said he is no longer sober, ending seven years of abstinence and returning to alcohol with what he describes as a more measured approach. In a new interview with “Esquire,”  Pitt said he had remained sober for seven years before deciding to drink again. He described the change as getting “back off the wagon,” adding that he “got overconfident a couple times” before realising that drinking in large quantities was “not good” for him. He said moderation is now important, particularly when it comes to how much he drinks.

The acknowledgment comes after years in which Pitt spoke openly about alcohol and recovery. Following his 2016 split from Angelina Jolie, he sought help through Alcoholics Anonymous. In 2020 he publicly thanked Bradley Cooper for supporting him through that period, crediting him with helping him get sober and saying his life had become happier as a result.

On Dax Shepard’s “Armchair Expert” in 2025, Pitt described the 12-step program as a positive experience and spoke about taking responsibility for past behavior. He also reflected on his recovery and the changes he had made in his life.

In his new interview with “Esquire,” Pitt spoke about moving through grief rather than avoiding it. “I just one day woke up, and it just felt a little sunnier and the air felt a little sweeter,” he told the magazine, describing the small changes that helped him move forward.

He says he is being more deliberate about his limits and how much he drinks. For a public figure who has made his sobriety a significant part of his public story, the latest disclosure puts his relationship with alcohol in a different light. After seven years without alcohol, Pitt is choosing to drink again, but on terms he says he is actively managing.
