Georgina Rodriguez has spoken out publicly about critical comments aimed at her figure, revealing a conversation she had about the issue with her partner, Cristiano Ronaldo.
Prompted by photos from her boat holiday, Rodriguez posted a lengthy statement on her personal Instagram page. She said she had recently seen all kinds of comments under her boat photos, with some criticizing her body and others defending her. She said she told Ronaldo it worried her that people were now calling her fat, since her image is part of her job.
According to Rodriguez, Ronaldo responded that she does not live off her image but off who she is, calling her a wonderful woman, beautiful, with an amazing body, a mother, a good person, successful and someone who lives with love. He asked what more she could want, and said it is natural that some people are jealous of her.
On beauty standards
Rodriguez said a person's worth can never depend on their appearance or the opinions of strangers. She noted that the same criticism happens every summer, questioning who decides what the "right" body is and who set those standards.
She said she loves her curves and the freedom to live in the body she chooses, one that has let her embrace people, bring life into the world, and fall and rise again. She said real success for her has never been fitting a mold nobody knows who invented, but living calmly, being close to loved ones, and caring for her health.
