Now that’s a lotta bling.
Cristiano Ronaldo proposed to his longtime girlfriend, Georgina Rodriguez, with a colossal engagement ring befitting of a billionaire.
Rodriguez showed off her new sparkler on Instagram, confirming her engagement to the soccer star, 40 — and dazzling fans with the jaw-dropping ring, featuring an oval-cut center stone and two side stones.
While the couple did not confirm who made the mammoth bling, experts tell Page Six Style that the price tag could fall anywhere between $2 and $5 million.
Ajay Anand, CEO of Rare Carat estimates the center stone to be of D color and flawless clarity, potentially weighing over 30 carats — which would place its value at as much as $5 million.
Meanwhile, Laura Taylor, engagement ring specialist at Lorel Diamonds, broke down the choice of stone, explaining, “Oval cuts are known for their brilliant faceting, which maximizes sparkle and gives the stone a bright, lively appearance from every angle.”
She estimated the center stone to weigh in between 15 and 20 carats, costing more than $2 million.
“The center stone is flanked by substantial side diamonds, adding even more sparkle and making the already impressive main stone look even larger,” she continued, adding that it’s likely set in platinum for security.
Taylor added, “This is a show-stopping ring, and easily among the most impressive we’ve seen in recent years, which feels perfectly suited to one of football’s most famous couples.”
Ronaldo and Rodriguez, 31, have been together for eight years and share two daughters, 7-year-old Alana and 3-year-old Bella; he also has a 15-year-old son, Cristiano Ronaldo Jr., from a previous relationship, as well as 8-year-old twins Eva and Mateo, who were born via surrogate.
Fellow billionaire’s wife Lauren Sánchez — who has her own duo of pricey engagement rings, including a recently upgraded oval-cut stone that rivals Rodriguez’s — commented her well wishes, writing, “So happy for you. ❤️” while tons of other friends and fans weighed in as well.
“Yes I do. In this and in all my lives,” Rodriguez captioned her announcement.
The Portuguese player and the model sparked marriage rumors last summer when Ronaldo referred to Rodríguez as his “wife;” she also has worn many diamond rings, including a massive emerald-cut ring with a band on her left hand as of late, though all pale in comparison to her latest.
We can only imagine the wedding day bling.
