Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodriguez

Portugal's star footballer Cristiano Ronaldo, 36, recently recalled the moment he fell in love with his Argentine model girlfriend, Georgina Rodriguez and said they clicked instantly. The Manchester United forward first met Georgina, 27, while she was working in a Gucci store in 2016.

In an upcoming Netflix documentary, the five-time Ballon d'Or winner is heard saying: "From that moment [when they passed each other outside the clothing company where she worked] it stuck in my head and it was a click moment." Georgina too spoke about the moment when she saw Ronaldo. "The day I met Cristiano, I go to work. And when I'm leaving, I see a handsome man appear. I started to feel like tickles in the stomach and I said, ‘Hey, what's wrong with me?' "
