Ronaldo Nazario, the former Brazilian football legend, has tied the knot for the fourth time, exchanging vows with his 14-year-old bride, Celina, in an intimate religious ceremony.
A video captured the couple leaving the church adorned in white attire, receiving applause and warm congratulations from friends and family. The path was lined with relatives showering them with white flower petals and rice blessings.
Celina shared a snapshot from the wedding on her Instagram account, captioning it with, “Today, our family gathered for an intimate religious ceremony. And it kicked off a week of many celebrations.”
Although the exact wedding date remains undisclosed, the UK’s Sun newspaper reported that the nuptials took place shortly after Ronaldo celebrated his 47th birthday on September 18.
Ronaldo has been in a relationship with Celina, a Brazilian model and businesswoman, since 2015. Their engagement took place during a romantic Caribbean vacation in January 2023. Celina is now the fourth wife of the former football sensation, affectionately known as “Alien.”
Ronaldo’s first official marriage was to fellow soccer player Milene Domingues in December 1999, and they had a son named Ronald. However, their marriage ended after four years.
In 2005, Ronaldo became engaged to Brazilian model and MTV VJ Daniela Cicarelli. Sadly, their relationship, which led to a lavish wedding at the historic Château de Chantilly in France, lasting just three months after a pregnancy ended in a miscarriage.
In 2008, Ronaldo married Maria Beatriz Antony, who gave birth to their daughters, Maria Sophia and Maria Alice. In December 2010, the family moved to a new villa in Sao Paulo. That same month, Ronaldo confirmed paternity of a son named Alexander, born in April 2005 after a brief relationship with Michele Umezu, a Brazilian waitress he met in Tokyo.
After acknowledging his fourth child, Ronaldo underwent a vasectomy in December 2010, feeling that four children were sufficient. He later divorced Maria Beatriz Antony in 2012.
Prior to these relationships, Ronaldo was in a long-term relationship with Brazilian model and actress Susana Werner, which began in 1997 and lasted until early 1999.
