Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodriguez are set to break the law by living together in Saudi Arabia, as per The Indian Express. Ronaldo and Georgina are together but not married. It is illegal to live in the same house without being married as per Saudi laws, but they aren’t expected to be facing any punishment by authorities.
Ronaldo joined Al-Nassr in December.
According to EFE, Ronaldo’s status as one of the world’s most marketable athletes means he may not be punished.

2 Saudi lawyers expected the authorities to not get involved.
“Although the laws still prohibit cohabitation without a marriage contract, the authorities have begun to turn a blind eye and do not persecute anyone. Of course, these laws are used when there is a problem or a crime,” said one.
“The Saudi Arabian authorities, today, do not interfere in this matter in the case of foreigners, but the law continues to prohibit cohabitation outside of marriage,” said the other.

Ronaldo also has three more kids – Cristiano Jr. plus Eva and Mateo who are twins.
