Cristiano Ronaldo’s ₹25-crore engagement ring for Georgina is so big it could blind you
Cristiano Ronaldo has officially put a ring on it and not just any ring. The Portuguese football legend, 40, has proposed to his long-time love of eight years, Georgina Rodríguez, with a diamond so dazzling it could probably light up an entire stadium.On August 12, Georgina shared the news in the most Instagram-worthy way possible: a romantic shot of her and Ronaldo’s hands, the words “Sí, quiero. En esta y en todas mis vidas” (“Yes, I do. In this life and in all my lives”), and a sparkling oval-shaped diamond so big, it’s practically a character in their love story. Naturally, the internet lost its collective mind.
Enter jewellery influencer Julia Chafe, who wasted no time dissecting every facet of that rock. In a now-viral video, Julia speculated the centre stone is a 35-carat D-Flawless oval diamond, the crème de la crème of diamond grades and cheekily asked, “Should you leave your husband for not buying you a $3 million engagement ring? Maybe.” Her verdict? The piece is easily worth $3 million (around ₹25 crore), possibly more, thanks to its size, clarity, and those equally extravagant side stones.For context, Julia compared it to a similar 35-carat D-VVS tip emerald-cut diamond sold at Sotheby’s for the same price. The kicker? Georgina’s appears larger. “She waited nine years for that ring. She deserves it,” Julia quipped, before joking that wearing such a stone daily might require “finger reconstruction surgery,” the glamorous price of love, apparently.

Fans, of course, piled in with their own brand of sparkle-infused commentary. “Calling diamonds obese is hilarious!” wrote one. Another teased, “This is what the Titanic hittttt… love.” Others debated the price tag, with some convinced it’s worth over $10 million, while one commenter summed it up perfectly: “That’s not a ring, that’s a disco ball in disguise.”
Bottom line? Ronaldo and Georgina’s engagement isn’t just a milestone in their relationship, it’s a full-blown pop culture moment. And while most of us may never slip a 35-carat diamond on our finger, we can at least bask in the glow of their happily-ever-after… and the blinding sparkle of that rock.
