Brazil football legend, Ronaldo is engaged to his model girlfriend, Celina Locks, after proposing to her during a Caribbean holiday.
He is set to marry for the third time after the recent proposal.
The former Real Madrid and Inter Milan striker and stunning Celina Locks – 14 years his junior – announced their engagement with romantic “I love you” messages on Instagram.
Not one to judge, SunSport explores the relationships of other former players.
From Neil “Razor” Ruddock to the debonair Thierry Henry, these chaps clearly feel young at heart.
The 32-year-old flashed off her ring to fans on her social media and wrote: “Yes I do” in English before adding in Portuguese: “I love you forever @ronaldo”.
The retired footballer, now President of LaLiga side Valladolid, replied ‘Love You’ with four heart emoticons.
One of the first people to congratulate the happy couple, who are holidaying in the Dominican Republic, was Ronaldo’s ex-wife Milene Domingues.
The former footballer’s wife wrote: “I’m happy for you. God bless and protect you always. Long live love.”
Ronaldo had his first child, Ronald who is now a 22-year-old DJ, with Milene before their four-year marriage ended in September 2003.
He went on to organize a wedding ceremony with model Daniella Cicarelli in February 2005 at a castle in France although it later transpired they did not officially become man and wife because neither had finalized their divorces from their previous partners.
The pair split just three months after the lavish castle ceremony they billed as an official wedding, with Daniella later claiming it ended because Ronaldo had been unfaithful to her.
After their relationship finished, the former football star wed engineering student Maria Beatriz Antony and the couple had two daughters – Maria Sofia, 14, and Maria Alice, 12 – during their seven-year relationship.
Ronaldo has been dating Brazilian Celina, who as well as a model is a successful businesswoman, for the past seven years.
He revealed he had a vasectomy after he was confirmed as the father of Alexander, now 16, in December 2010 following a fling with waitress Michele Umezu.
Ronaldo later revealed to the Financial Times that he had sperm frozen, joking he had enough still to make a football team.
