Georgina Rodriguez, the spouse of Al-Nassr megastar Cristiano Ronaldo, came to Instagram to dispute all accusations that her children were tormented or mistreated at school, instead saying that they were happy and had found loving friends. Georgina Rodriguez and Cristiano Ronaldo have been together since 2016. They initially met at a Gucci store in Madrid, where Rodriguez worked as a saleswoman. Cristiano Jr., Alana Martina, Mateo, Eva Maria, and Bella Esmeralda are their five children, and they presently live in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The family has been there since January, following Ronaldo's departure from Manchester United for Saudi Pro League side Al-Nassr.

Cristiano Ronaldo regained his form and happiness in February after a poor start to the season, and he hasn't looked back since. He has nine goals and two assists in ten outings, leading Al-Nassr to second place in the table, one point behind leaders Al-Ittihad. They could not say the same for their children. Georgina Rodriguez allegedly told Telemundo (via the Daily Post) that her children are bullied at school:

"At school, there are times when they get hit. And they don’t defend themselves and they sink. The other day one of my children who had been hit. I received him and he started crying, ‘Mom!’. And I thought he had caught a hand. I tell him what’s wrong with you, what’s wrong with you ‘A child hit me’."

She broke her silence on Instagram last night after this instantly went viral. She wrote a lengthy statement on her story, revealing the facts (via Quem).

"Some media outlets have published some fallacious stories about our children at school and I would like to say that these claims are ABSOLUTELY FALSE. Our children go to a fantastic school with wonderful professionals. We really appreciate the amazing work they do for us as family, as parents and on a personal level."

She added: "Our children found loving friends and are very happy in their new school in Riyadh. Fortunately, we always had great experiences in all countries and in all schools. We admire each one of them."

Despite all the negativity circulating about their children, Georgina Rodriguez has given her honest opinion on life in Riyadh so far.

When asked how her family and Cristiano Ronaldo were adapting to life in Saudi Arabia after being in Europe for so long, she admitted that she loves life in Riyadh, even claiming that women are treated well there.

Georgina Rodriguez spoke to El Hormiguero (via Daily Post):

“It is a marvellous country. I have to admit I went there very conditioned by what people say about it and what you hear, but it is a very safe country, a real family place and they really look after women and their children. People are very generous and really thoughtful."

After initially living in the Kingdom Suite at the Four Seasons Hotel, Ronaldo and Co. currently reside in a luxurious house in a well-secured compound.
