Ronaldo is currently the highest-earning player in the world, earning more than $250 million a year. The 39-year-old superstar’s total assets have also reached $700 million.
With a huge fortune, Ronaldo is more than enough to provide a comfortable life for his family members, from his mother Dolores to his siblings. This makes many people mistakenly think that his girlfriend Georgina is also dependent on CR7. However, that is not the case. Having experienced many financial difficulties, since meeting Ronaldo, Georgina has worked hard to now be independent in terms of income.
Georgina has been with Ronaldo for 8 years
From a difficult life before meeting Ronaldo
Georgina admitted that meeting Ronaldo was like a fairy tale, changing her life completely. Before that, she was completely unknown, still had to take the bus to work, had to handle 3 jobs at the same time to be able to maintain her life in the expensive capital Madrid.
At that time, Georgina also lived in a rental apartment described as shabby, the price was about 325 USD per month.
Working as a saleswoman in a famous fashion store, Georgina really wanted to own expensive branded items. However, all of them were beyond the financial capacity of the girl born in 1994.
However, everything changed in the summer of 2016. At that time, Ronaldo walked into the store where she worked. The two fell in love at first sight and quickly started dating.
The couple have been together for 8 years now and have 2 children together. Ronaldo is said to have complete trust in his girlfriend and has put her on his list of heirs – something he has never done with any other girlfriend in the past.
To a life of financial independence
Since meeting Ronaldo, Georgina has become the center of attention. On Instagram alone, the 30-year-old beauty has more than 62 million followers. She makes good use of this popularity to make money.
Georgina is now the face of a number of famous brands, from fashion, perfume to eyewear. Moving to Saudi Arabia is said to have further boosted Georgina’s career. “She is a shining star in Saudi Arabia, attracting all the attention,” a source shared about Georgina on the Daily Mail.

In addition, she also collaborated with Netflix to air the documentary “I am Georgina”, which was a huge commercial success. Season 3 of this program will air in mid-September. With each series, Georgina is said to be able to pocket millions of dollars.
Not many people know that Georgina is also running a business. Lazaros reports that Georgina is running a hair business in her native Spain, valued at around $11 million. In 2020, the business made a profit of more than $2 million and is growing steadily.
British media reported that Georgina owns assets of up to 10 million USD. This helps her to be financially independent, without having to rely on Ronaldo. However, Marca revealed that she still receives about 110 thousand USD per month from Ronaldo to cover family expenses.
Of course, Georgina is not absorbed in making money. She admits that family is her number one priority and still takes good care of Ronaldo and the children. She revealed that she wants to become a modern woman, good at housework and good at making money.
“I want people to remember me as a kind person who appreciates the values in life and is always full of energy,” Georgina said.
