“If it hadn’t been Cristiano Ronaldo, it would’ve been someone else”- Georgina Rodriguez’s old friend makes big claim on her always liking footballers

Georgina Rodriguez's former close friend has made a controversial comment regarding her relationship with Cristiano Ronaldo. It was previously reported that the two lovebirds met at a luxury store before hitting it off.

However, it now appears that the Portuguese's love story may not have had the fairy-tale start. The former friend has now stated that Georgina Rodriguez met the five-time Ballon d'Or winner at Opium Madrid, one of the Spanish capital's trendiest nightclubs.

Speaking on the Spanish TV show Fiesta, as cited by beIN Sports, the former friend stated that had it not been Cristiano Ronaldo, she would dated another footballer. He said:

“If it hadn’t been Cristiano, it would’ve been someone else. She liked footballers and knew how to move in those circles.”

The Argentine social media influencer has always portrayed herself as a humble, hardworking woman who wants to support her family. However, her former friend has now painted a different picture of Georgina Rodriguez.

The Argentine is yet to respond to those claims, while Cristiano Ronaldo has been quiet about the comments as well. The Portuguese superstar's contract with Al-Nassr expires at the end of this month. However, according to The BBC, the 40-year-old is all set to sign a new deal in the coming days.

Georgina Rodriguez once insisted that she has now qualms about being known as Cristiano Ronaldo's wife. Speaking to the Portuguese superstar for Vogue Arabia last month, the Argentinean insisted that she is proud to be his wife.

" 'I am very proud to be your wife, and of our family, and there is nothing negative about it — on the contrary, I have shown through my personality and my strength that I have my own light and path to follow. I have been able to show who and how I am...Although (everyone knows) me for being your wife, I have managed to open my path by showing myself too," said Rodriguez.

She continued:

"For me, the most important thing is you and our family. Everything I do professionally revolves around your well-being. Our children always accompany me on all my trips so I can enjoy them at all times. I choose projects based on your sports schedule and the safety of our family's needs. Our family comes first."

Georgina reportedly met the former Real Madrid forward in 2016.
