Georgina Rodríguez turned 31 on Monday, and the Aquarius has already experienced so much. The Argentine and Spanish model shares five children with Cristiano Ronaldo and has traveled the world, published a memoir, starred in her own reality show, and is incredibly famous.

With 65.1M followers on Instagram, she has been showered with love on social media for her birthday, and her longtime partner was one of those to honor her with a heartfelt post.

The 39-year-old soccer player, who is the most-followed person on the app, shared a selfie of them smiling at the gym. “To the mother, partner, friend, my wife… Happy birthday, love. Your light illuminates us, and your love infects us,” Cristiano wrote in Spanish.

The post has only been up for nine hours and already has over 7.7 million likes. Georgina replied in the comments, saying, “I love you and I love what we are together.”

Georgina's special day

Georgina was surrounded with love all day, sharing some of the special deliveries she received on her Instagram story, like a giant heart-shaped bouquet of roses.

It's unclear how they celebrated, but she did share some photos at dinner. 

She looked stunning wearing a tiara as she blew out her gorgeous chocolate cake with beautiful decorations.

Georgina’s past birthdays

Ronaldo usually goes all out for Georgina’s birthday. For her big 30th, the model enjoyed a luxurious family vacation in the Maldives. Although he was not able to make the trip, he joined one of the special evenings via FaceTime while at home with their daughter, Bella Esmeralda, who was a baby at the time.

In 2022, he surprised her by projecting her image onto the Burj Khalifa Tower in Dubai, the world’s tallest building, standing at 2,717 feet with 163 floors.

As for this year’s gift? No word yet, but it was likely something just as extravagant as the diamond-encrusted G-Shock watch he gave her last year, which is believed to be worth $100,000.

The couple’s love story

The couple’s love story began in 2016, and they’ve built a beautiful life together with their five kids: Cristiano Jr., 14, who he welcomed via surrogate before they met; twins Eva and Mateo, 7; Alana Martina, 7; and Bella Esmeralda, 2.

One interesting detail about their journey, which has almost lasted a decade, is that they have never publicly married. But there has always been speculation that they secretly said "I do." They sparked rumors about it after a July 2024 video where Ronaldo called her "wife," but he referred to her as "partner" in his birthday post today, so it's all a mystery.
