GEORGINA Rodriguez has gone from shop floor to fashion’s front row in ten years after meeting footie superstar Cristiano Ronaldo.
The model wore a black fur coat, £840 heels and clutched a £2,300 handbag while watching Gucci’s show at Milan Fashion Week.
But in 2016, she was working as a sales assistant at the designer’s store in Madrid, Spain, where she met now-fiancé and football legend Ronaldo, 41.
It was a full circle moment for Georgina, 32, and she celebrated her success online.
Posting a snap of the event at the weekend, she then shared a photo of herself working in the store, noting: “Gucci. 2026/2016”.
Other pictures showed her posed in lace tights and a bra top on her private jet.
Speaking in her Netflix series, I Am Georgina, she described her meeting with ex-Manchester United and Portugal player Ronaldo ten years ago as “love at first sight”.
She said: “The first meeting was at Gucci, where I worked as a sales assistant. Days later, we saw each other again at another brand’s event.
“It was then we could talk in a relaxed atmosphere, outside of my work environment.”
Later, she told Grazia: “His height, his body, his beauty caught my attention. I was trembling in front of him, but a spark ignited.”
The couple made their red carpet debut at the Fifa Football Awards in January 2017, then had twins Eva and Mateo via a surrogate in the June.
In November that year, Georgina had their first child together, Alana Martina.
In 2022 the couple announced they were expecting twins, with daughter Bella born in April, but son Angel died in childbirth.
The family moved to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, when Ronaldo signed with Al-Nassr in 2023.
They are said to be planning to marry later this year, following the World Cup.
