Cristiano Ronaldo and girlfriend announce gender of unborn twins in sweet video

Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodriguez have discovered the gender of their unborn twins - a boy and a girl.

The Manchester United forward and his five-month pregnant girlfriend posted a video of the gender reveal to social media in which they got their four children to pop balloons releasing confetti.

One of the two black balloons released blue confetti, while the other released pink, signifying the couple are having a boy and a girl.

In the clip, the two boys shout: "It's a boy" while the girls say: "It's a girl" after Georgina gives a 1-2-3 countdown and then cheers.

Ronaldo posted alongside the video: "Where life begins and love never ends".

Ronaldo and Georgina announced back in October that they were expecting twins.

The Red Devils star posted on social media at the time: "Delighted to announce we are expecting twins. Our hearts are full of love - we can't wait to meet you."

Ronaldo's mum, Dolores Aveiro, replied to the post: "Let my grandchildren be born healthy. That's what matters the most."

Ronaldo will become the father of six children once Georgina gives birth.

Georgina already shares daughter Alana, who is three, with the 36-year-old, and Ronaldo has a son named Cristiano Jnr, 11, and twins Eva and Mateo, both four.

Five-time Ballon d'Or winner Ronaldo met Georgina while she was working as a sales assistant in a Gucci store.

Georgina hails from the Spanish village of Jaca, with her Argentine ex-footballer father, Jorge, and Spanish mother, Ana.

She spent time in England before meeting Ronaldo, spending time in places such as Bristol and Bath before returning to Spain and working in high-end retail.

Ronaldo told ITV in 2019: "She helped me so much. Of course, I'm in love with her."

He added that it would be his mother's dream to see the pair walk down the aisle.

"We'll be [married] one day, for sure," said Ronaldo. "It's my mum's dream as well. So, one day. Why not? It's great. She's my friend.

"We have conversations. I open the heart for her and she opens the heart for me."
