She told Italy’s Elle magazine in a past interview: “The first meeting with Ronaldo was at Gucci where I worked as a sales assistant.

“Days later we saw each other again at another brand’s event and it was then we could talk in a relaxed atmosphere, outside of my work environment. It was love at first sight for both.”

Georgina is Ronaldo’s biggest supporter and she can be found cheering him on at his many matches.

The pair live a very glamorous life, from several properties to flying around the world on private jets.
