“My body will change, just like every woman's. And I hope I continue to do so for many years to come, because that will mean I'm still living,” read an Instagram translation of her caption.
“I am a mother of 6 wonderful children, 3 are girls who will one day be great women,” she continued.

“And if there's anything I wish to teach you — alongside Cris, who I am deeply proud of for the values he imparts as a father and as a man — it's that the value of a person can never depend on a physicist or on the opinion of strangers.”
The mother said she tries to give her kids “that little dose of positive psychology.” And this helps her keep herself grounded in a world of illusions.
The model and influencer said she had a conversation with her fiancé about people commenting on her body
In recent days, she said she came across viral pictures of herself on a boat, with all kinds of remarks filling up the comments section.
Some people felt the need to share their opinion about her body, and others came to her defense, she said.

The intrusive comments pushed her to have a conversation with Ronaldo.
“I was talking about it with Cris and I said: ‘I'm worried that they're calling me fat now, because I live in my image.’”

“And he answered me: ‘You don’t live by your image. You live by what you are. A perfect woman. Beautiful, with a body, mother, good person, successful and living life with love. What the hell else do you want? It's normal for them to envy you.’ And we talked about many more things.”
“Sometimes we all need someone to remind us what really matters,” she added.

Rodriguez pushed back against the rigid and unrealistic beauty standards imposed on women.
“I wonder... Where is the standard? Who decides which is the ‘right’ body? Do we really still think that happiness has a size?” she asked.

Going on to talk about her workouts, she said her favorite time of the day is that one hour she spends at the gym, because it makes her “happy.”
“Because I'm passionate about it … It gives me health, peace of mind, discipline, energy and wellness. It's never been a struggle to lose weight; it's always been a way of taking care of me,” she said.

The Argentine and Spanish social media personality concluded by saying her body has carried her throughout a lot, including motherhood and all of life’s challenges.
Hence, she rejected the idea that a body needs to stay a certain way when it goes through so much.

“I love my curves. I love the freedom to live in the body I choose,” she declared. “In the body that holds me, that has allowed me to embrace, create life, fall and rise again. A body deserving of respect, love, and gratitude in all its versions.”
To her, “true success” isn’t about fitting into a body standard that “nobody knows who invented.”
“Real success is living in peace. Surround myself with the people I love. Enjoy my family and friends,” she said. “Taking care of my health. Laugh. Learn. Live.”

Rodriguez and Ronaldo, who met in 2016, are reportedly planning a grand wedding.
The Portuguese star proposed to her last August with a massive three-stone ring featuring a 22 to 35 carat oval cut center diamond.
“She asked me for a ring to offer her because it was one of her dreams to have a good stone,” he said in an interview with Piers Morgan last year.

“And I work hard, work hard and finally I find what she love,” he added.
Reports claimed they will be marrying in Madeira, where the soccer icon was born and raised, possibly this weekend.
“Guests at the hotel have been told two floors will be out of use on Friday and Saturday, as well as several bar areas,” a source told The Sun.
“The fact that we are still talking about celebrities’ bodies in the big 26 sounds crazy to me,” one commented online
