Gourmet, glamour, and Georgina came together aboard Cristiano Ronaldo’s $27 million superyacht CR7, a vessel the Al-Nassr player has owned since 2020. His fiancée, Georgina Rodriguez, who he recently proposed to with a stunning 30-carat diamond, makes life, and especially the days at sea, all the more special for her man. The reality TV star even went as far as hiring a renowned chef for their yacht vacation in Ibiza during the summer of 2025.
She reached out to Marta García Bou (better known as Buki on social media) through her DMs on Instagram, and the 31-year-old agreed to pay the young chef a hefty sum. According to Italian media outlets, Marta went home with nearly $1.1 million for a week’s work that required 24/7 service. So if the kids craved a tiramisu at 2 am, Marta would whip one up with a smile and sheer genius.
García Bou enjoys a massive following online, with 500,000 fans on TikTok and more than 474,000 on Instagram, among them celebrity Georgina Rodriguez. While food is clearly Marta’s passion, earning her thousands of likes on social media and hundreds of thousands of euros for summer stints, the Spanish chef is actually an industrial engineer and a former Deloitte employee. Now her life revolves around food, creating magic with a spatula that has turned her into an internet sensation in her own right.
Speaking about the job she secured with Ronaldo’s family aboard the superyacht, Marta said, “If they want steak at two in the morning, I’ll wake up at that hour and prepare it for them. It will be challenging, especially because they will be traveling with the whole family, including young children, who may have the strangest desires. It will be a spectacle.”
Whether it proved to be a spectacle for the chef remains unknown, but the money she earned for her gastronomic skills certainly was spectacular. Some outlets have described the 26-year-old Valencian creator-chef’s salary as a joke. Truth be told, the astronomical figure sounds like the kind of number that could make someone spit out their food. Still, she has worn the chef’s hat for Spanish artists like Quevedo and Pablo Alborán. So we wouldn’t be surprised if Ronaldo did shell out a million euros to enjoy delicacies whipped up by Marta.
As for Cristiano Ronaldo, Georgina, and their clan, the fitness-conscious family probably stuck to fish, chicken, and greens along with some Portuguese comfort dishes like bacalhau à Brás. The kids would’ve perhaps indulged in sweet treats that Buki often flaunts on her Instagram, like tiramisu cheesecakes and her signature ‘crema del mundo’. While the food was fascinating, the vessel of this dynamic family also deserves recognition.
Ronaldo owns a $27 million mean machine of the seas-
Ronaldo’s 88-foot Azimut Grande is a stunner with five designer cabins. It is powered by two 1,900-horsepower engines and can reach a top speed of 28 knots. Its tank holds 9,500 liters of fuel, enough to cruise the Med without interruptions. The yacht features a modern galley and crew quarters, though the most lavish space is Ronaldo and Georgina’s master suite at the bow of the main deck, with floor-to-ceiling windows.
The main living room is lined with a comfortable sofa and a marble table for eight. Normally, one might expect Ronaldo to stick to his strict diet of broccoli, chicken, and rice, but with an acclaimed chef like Marta on board, perhaps the football legend enjoyed something far more indulgent.
