Georgina Rodríguez is pushing back against online criticism of her appearance after sharing bikini photos from a recent vacation. In a lengthy Instagram post shared on August 4, the fiancée of Cristiano Ronaldo reflected on the scrutiny surrounding her body, writing that it changes "just as all women's bodies do" and that she hopes it continues to evolve for many years.
Rodríguez, who shares five children with Ronaldo, acknowledged that the criticism can be hurtful and questioned society's beauty standards.
"Where is the standard? Who decides what the 'right' body is? Do we really still think happiness has a size?" she wrote, adding that she exercises because it makes her happy, not to meet others' expectations. "I love my curves," she said. "I love the freedom to live in the body I choose."
