The model and influencer, who recently gave birth to the couple's daughter Bella Esmeralda, is said to have agreed to star in a sequel at the beginning of the year. Netflix has officially confirmed 'I Am Georgina' would return 'soon', including heartbreaking revelations about her devastating loss in April.
Netflix Spain's Director of Entertainment Alvaro Diaz revealed that the tragic death of Georgina and Ronaldo's baby son would be a key part of the second season. And the model has confessed in a preview of what she will say about the reality show, released to journalists at a Spanish TV and radio film festival in the Basque city of Victoria-Gasteiz. The first series of 'I Am Georgina' premiered in 190 countries worldwide on January 27 - Georgina's 28th birthday - and became an instant top ten hit in many.

"Life has gifted me so much in such a short space of time. This year I've experienced the best and the worst moment of my life in an instant. A big piece of my heart shattered and I asked myself how I could carry on. I had the answer nearer than I thought. I looked into the eyes of my children and there I saw the only way of doing it, being all together," Georgina said in an emotional admission.
Following the tragic demise of their baby son on April 18, Georgina and Ronaldo released a heart-wrenching statement: "It is with our deepest sadness we have to announce that our baby boy has passed away. It is the greatest pain that any parents can feel. Only the birth of our baby girl gives us the strength to live this moment with some hope and happiness. We would like to thank the doctors and nurses for all their expert care and support. We are all devastated at this loss and we kindly ask for privacy at this very difficult time. Our baby boy, you are our angel. We will always love you."

Since the tragic death of her baby son, Georgina has posted several photos of her surviving girl Bella Esmeralda in several emotional social media posts and called her a 'small great blessing'. A few days earlier, the 28-year-old was pictured making a surprise visit to the holy site of Fatima in Portugal, a visit which is also due to feature in the second series of 'I Am Georgina.'

"We didn't have any doubt about commissioning a second series after seeing the first, because it's difficult to find someone who opens the doors to their life wide-open like Georgina does," said Alvaro Diaz. "Georgina and her loved ones have experienced something very complicated and fans will see that she has dealt with it with naturalness and generosity," he added.
"The new series will feature moments of the most absolute sadness and the heart-wrenching loss. What Georgina suffered is something that can happen to someone who has everything, like her, as well as someone who has nothing. But we are also going to laugh and enjoy a lot with the new season, just like we did last time round," Diaz added.
In season one of 'I Am Georgina', Ronaldo, who was covered in blood on Saturday night during Portugal's UEFA Nations League 4-0 win over the Czech Republic, confessed that he was '1000 per cent certain' he would tie the knot with his Georgina. The Spanish model revealed in season one that she switched from taking the bus to the Gucci store in 2016 when she met Cristiano to being chauffeured around in his collection of potent sports cars.
The second season of the upcoming 'I Am Georgina' series may or may not address the preseason uncertainty surrounding the striker's future at Manchester United. The 37-year-old Portuguese talisman, who had expressed his desire to leave the club for a shot at Champions League glory, will remain at Old Trafford until at least January following the closure of the summer transfer window.
