GEORGINA RODRIGUEZ has ended her fans' nail-biting wait by announcing her Netflix rags-to-riches real-life documentary series will air in just over a month.
The Argentine-born brunette confirmed it would launch on January 27 next year with a sexy wink at the camera after telling fans in a preview of the show opener: “Many know my name but few people know who I am.”

The 27-year-old, due to give birth to a twin boy and girl in April, broadcast the news in a figure-hugging dress and high heels as she lay on top of a cut-out of her name in giant yellow letters.
Netflix also showed the same preview on its Instagram, saying of the series which is called ‘Soy Georgina’ - Spanish for ‘I’m Georgina’: "It’s what lies behind the front covers, the Instagram stories and the red carpets.
“All the episodes arrive on January 27.”
The Netflix show is thought to be a six-parter.
It has already been revealed Georgina, who last week got her four-year-old daughter Alana Martina and her partner Cristiano Ronaldo’s three kids to announce she was pregnant with a boy and a girl, will admit in the Netflix show that she is waiting for Ronaldo to pop the question more than five years after they began dating.
The series premiere date was revealed as Georgina’s latest magazine glamour shoot and interview hit the news stands in her native Spain.

The model and influencer celebrated her latest coup by photographing herself surrounded by copies of the Spanish edition of Cosmopolitan on Manchester United hero Ronaldo’s £20million private jet.
She says in the interview she loves living in England and returning to the UK six years after working as an au pair in Bristol has been “great.”
Ronaldo's stunning girlfriend, who features on the front cover of Cosmopolitan in a spangly red dress, says: “I love England and when I was younger my dream was to live in London.
“I went to Bristol as an au pair six years ago and being able to return to England to live here has been a great opportunity.”
Georgina, living with Ronaldo and their kids at a £3m mansion in Cheshire, also admits she can’t wait to increase the size of their family, saying: “I feel great and I’m looking forward to the twins being born.
“The other children have taken the news very well although when they went with me for the scan, they thought I was going to give birth there and then and were asking me, ‘But aren’t they going to be born now?'
“They’re really looking forward to it.”
NOT BOTHERED BY REVIEWS
And speaking ahead of the Netflix series being lapped up by fans around the world, she preempts any bad reviews by insisting: “I’ve always been very strong and had a lot of personality.”
The 25-second clip Georgina and Netflix broadcast on Tuesday, showing her looking every inch the glamorous successful businesswoman she has managed to become in record time since meeting Ronaldo, featured the lyrics: “Everyone wanna walk like me, wanna talk like me, better bring your A game.”
Fans reacted with praise, with one saying: “I love you Georgina.”
Another wrote: “I’m so excited.”
The premiere date for the documentary had been kept a closely-guarded secret since Georgina was spotted filming in her native city of Jaca earlier this year.
Netflix Spain's Director of Entertainment Alvaro Diaz, has said of the star, who met Ronaldo when he came to buy clothes at a Gucci store in Madrid in the summer of 2016: “Georgina is totally honest and recognises in the documentary that her life changed from having nothing to absolutely everything.
“‘Yo Soy Georgina’ has a strong aspirational component. Georgina went from selling luxury to being gifted it and showing it off on the red carpet.
“She was a normal young woman whose life changed dramatically one day. She was leaving work one day and crossed paths with the love of her life. Who has not dreamed of that?”
RONALDO TO APPEAR
Confirming Ronaldo would appear in the TV programme, he told local media in September: “Cristiano’s incorporation is total but complements a vision of who Georgina is and her relationship with the father of her children.
“It conditions all her life but the focus is on her and knowing her also through her own eyes.”
Ronaldo, whose four-year-old daughter with Georgina is the youngest of his family, is said to reveal in the documentary the moment he fell for the Argentine-born Spaniard.
He will tell fans: “It was a split-second moment. I never thought it would be that big as to fall in love with her, I really didn’t expect it. Georgina is the woman I am totally in love with.”

Georgina, in a preview of the first series in the documentary before the premiere date was made public, revealed to journalists at the FesTVal de Vitoria 2021 nearly three months ago: “I am 27 and five years ago my life has changed.
“The day I met Cristiano was a Thursday in the summer, as I was leaving the shop when a handsome man almost two metres tall….”
She will also be seen boarding Ronaldo's private plane, choosing jewellery, playing with the four children she acts as mum to including her daughter, and attending a music festival in the upmarket Costa del Sol resort of Marbella.
Netflix added about the real-life documentary series, which has already sparked comparisons with ‘Keeping Up With The Kardashians’: “We will live Georgina’s day-to-day with her, we will discover her true friendships, her wishes and desires, her highs and her lows. We will get to know who Georgina Rodriguez really is.
