Ronaldo's sweetheart Georgina Rodriguez rocks £78,000 worth of jewellery
Earlier, Briefly News had reported how Georgina Rodriguez was spotted wearing diamonds worth £78,000 to a show at Venice Film Festival before her partner Cristiano Ronaldo broke the all-time international goals for Portugal.
From her four rings to her necklace as well as earrings all made by Giardini Segreti in total is slightly above what Ronaldo will be earning daily at Man United.
The 27-year-old is understood to have a jewellery collection worth over £2.6million and more will be added on the day Ronaldo decides to finally tie the knot with her sweetheart.
Ronaldo proposed with an engagement ring estimated to be worth around £615,000 last year September but the date for their wedding is yet to be fixed.
The couple and their five children will now be planning to move to the city of Manchester after the five-time Ballon d'Or winner rejoined the club of his youth, Man United.
