Georgina Rodriguez Counters Body‑Shaming Ahead of Ronaldo Wedding

Georgina Rodríguez posted a lengthy Instagram message after bikini photos from a family yacht holiday sparked body‑shaming comments. She wrote that a woman's body will change over time and that she hopes her own body continues to change for many years, seeing it as a sign of a life lived. She emphasized that a person's worth is not determined by appearance and urged her six children, especially her three daughters, to internalise this lesson.

Cristiano Ronaldo replied privately, telling her she does not live off her image but on who she is, describing her as a perfect, beautiful woman, mother and successful person. He shared this supportive response publicly, reinforcing her confidence. The episode also drew a supportive reaction from Antonela Roccuzzo, wife of Lionel Messi, who posted applause emojis.

Meanwhile, speculation about the couple’s wedding intensified, with reports that the ceremony will take place in the cathedral of Funchal on Madeira, Portugal, followed by a reception at the Savoy Palace hotel. Sources suggest the wedding may occur on Saturday, 8 August 2026, as hotel floors were reportedly closed for the event.
