Recently, football superstar C Ronaldo successfully proposed to Georgina, and the 9-year long-distance love run between the two finally ushered in an important milestone. In their love story, their daughter Martina was born as early as 2017 and had twins again in 2022, but unfortunately lost her baby boy and did not formally propose until 2025. This makes people wonder why foreigners often get married after having children and children?

In Western culture, the concept of love supremacy is deeply rooted in people's hearts. When in love, they pay more attention to each other's emotional communication and personal happiness experience. Marriage is not the inevitable direction of love. Just like Ronaldo and Georgina, they enjoy the sweetness of love, welcome the arrival of their children together, put their marriage in a longer-term plan, and wait for that most appropriate moment.

Western people's pursuit of personal freedom and independence is also vividly expressed in emotional relationships. Having children first and getting married gives couples plenty of time and space to get to know each other in depth. In the process of living together and parenting, we can adjust our personality and test whether our living habits are in line with each other. If you are in harmony, you will enter the marriage hall. If you are not in harmony, you can separate relatively freely, avoiding the contradictions and pain caused by various inconsistencies after marriage.

The West's perfect social welfare and security system also provides solid support for "child care first and then marriage". The children's basic rights and interests such as education and medical care will not be affected by the parents' unmarried. Even if raised by single parents, society has a corresponding assistance system, so that women do not need to worry about the financial pressure of childcare alone, and men can face the situation of having children without marriage more calmly.

In our China, the traditional concept of marriage emphasizes "becoming a family first, then establishing a career". Marriage is regarded as a major event in life. After getting married, then consider having children, which carries family continuity and social responsibility. The Western model of "childbirth first and then marriage" is an in-depth exploration of love, freedom and personal development. Whether it is Ronaldo and Georgina, or ordinary Western couples, they are following the rhythm of their hearts and writing their own love and family chapters, which also allows us to see different life choices and life possibilities under the collision of diverse views on marriage and love.
