CRISTIANO Ronaldo knows how to sparkle on the football pitch – but he’s a diamond geezer off it too.
In 2020, the superstar forked out a whopping £615,000 on a rumoured engagement ring for girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez – which would make it the most expensive band ever given to a WAG.
Of course, it’s far from the first time the footie legend – reportedly worth £350million – has lavished presents on the Spanish-Argentine model.
Georgina, 28, has been treated to a life of luxury during their romance – enjoying designer shopping sprees and far-flung holidays on huge private yachts.
And with an enviable £80k allowance each month, she’s been all too happy to return the favour too – famously treating her man to a gift-wrapped Mercedes SUV for his birthday.
Here, we take a look at some of the couple’s most extravagant purchases over the years – and just how they spend their incredible wealth.

Gift-wrapped Mercedes 4×4 for birthday treat
For Cristiano’s 35th birthday, Georgina treated her beau to a gift wrapped Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon 4X4, which has a basic starting price of £93,000 and a top speed of up to 136.7mph.
The pricey motor came with a gigantic huge red bow, while close family and friends sang to him during the unveiling, which was filmed on camera.
Posting to her Instagram account, Georgina wrote to her millions of followers: “Congratulations to the man of my life! What do you want to transport our love in? Your gift @cristinao #happybirthday.”

The Portuguese international is well known for his love of cars and owns a ridiculous garage including a Rolls-Royce Cullian and Phantom, a Bugatti Veyron, three Ferraris, an Aston Martin DB9, a Bentley GT Speed and a Lamborghini Aventador.
His total collection is said to be worth more than £16million.
£140 socks and Prada spending sprees
Georgina’s not afraid to show off her incredible figure and last summer posed in gear worth as much as £2,565 – during a relaxing break in Italy on her beau’s luxury £15m holiday yacht.
The sporty ensemble was bought from Prada and her socks alone cost £140, along with £510 shorts, £705 shoes, and a pricey £1,120 leather jacket.
The total price came to £2,565 – small change to Ronaldo who reportedly joined the exclusive sports billionaire club, alongside the likes of Tiger Woods, Floyd Mayweather, and Michael Jordan.
Posting the shot to her Instagram account, Georgina – who often takes to the red carpet in gorgeous designer gowns – simply captioned the sexy snap with three sailing emojis.
The £2.6k trendy pet cat
In 2018, Cristano splashed out on a bald Sphynx cat which reportedly cost a claw-dropping £2,600.
The star’s girlfriend posted a picture of the family pet, which is considered to be a ‘prestigious feline’, to her Instagram account alongside her family.
Sphynx cats are well-known for being hugely energetic and demanding of human attention – so perfectly matched with Cristiano himself, really.
£1million timepieces – with over 400 diamonds
The Man Utd footballer sports accessories that are as flashy as his footwork – once wowing fans by showing off a £371,000 Rolex watch last month.
The Rolex GMT Master is covered in diamonds and is an 18-karat white gold timekeeper.
However, it pales in comparison to the £1.8million timepiece he’s previously been spotted with.
During the Champions League draw in 2020, he was clocked wearing a Jacob & Co Caviar watch encrusted with more than 400 diamonds.
It’s a fitting piece for a man said to be the world’s second highest-earning sportsman over the last decade – he is thought to only be surpassed by Floyd Mayweather who has earned more than £667million over that time.
Splashing £27k on booze… in 15 minutes
Big spending’s no biggie for the couple, but to splurge almost £30k in 15 minutes is a pretty impressive feat.
Four years ago, they racked up a £27k bill in Mayfair restaurant Scott’s, a regular haunt for celebs and footballers.
Scott’s apparently does not feature the Burgundy Richebourg Grand Cru wine on the menu as the stock is so low, however, one bottle can cost around £18,000 and is only offered to special guests.
It was accompanied with a bottle of a 1982 vintage Bordeaux, which reportedly set Cristiano back £9,000.
The couple were with a group of pals, but apparently only sat at the bar for 15 minutes before leaving – rushing off to see the ATP Finals at the O2 Arena.
Handbags and gladrags
Georgina loves to show off her extensive handbag in her Instagram posts, including a £146,000 crocodile Birkin bag she took for a dinner in Porto.
Even when the stylish mum is travelling she still has her handbags to hand – snapping herself on a plane sporting both a £625 Prada and a £48,000 Burkin.
Cristiano clearly knows the way to Georgina’s heart, as he was spotted designer handbag shopping when things were heating up between the pair.
Lush holidays aboard his £5.5m yacht
The superstar couple always travel in style and love nothing more than kicking back on CR7’s luxury yacht which he purchased for a cool £5.5million last year.
The high-end vessel – named the Azimut Grande – is 88-feet long, made from carbon fibre and is capable of reaching up to 28 knots thanks to its two 1,900 horsepower engines.
The yacht also boasts an impressive five cabins as well as six stunning bathrooms and also has a modern kitchen as well as relaxation rooms and a huge lounge and a lavish dining room.
The footballer was able to travel privately with his family on the boat as they all enjoyed time together along the Tyrrhenian sea, just off the western coast of Italy.
In June 2020, Georgina flaunted her figure on the vessel and raised temperatures by showing off her bikini body with a sexy Instagram snap.
