Kylian Mbappe caught off guard by marriage question after Cristiano Ronaldo wedding
Kylian Mbappe was left visibly embarrassed when asked whether he could be the next footballer to get married, before ending the exchange with a brief “Good night!” and driving away.
The Real Madrid forward was approached by a Spanish journalist while he was in the streets of Madrid with Ester Exposito, in a video that has circulated widely on social media.
According to French football website Foot Mercato, the reporter first asked Mbappe for his reaction to Cristiano Ronaldo’s wedding to Georgina Rodriguez. The conversation was short, but the journalist then turned the question towards Mbappe himself and asked whether he might be next to tie the knot.
Mbappe appeared uncomfortable but smiled before responding with a playful remark: “Watch the wall.”
After being told about Ronaldo’s marriage, the France international added: “Well, congratulations to them.”
The reporter continued to press him about the possibility of his own wedding, prompting Mbappe to bring the conversation to an abrupt end.
“Good night!” he said, before continuing on his way in his car.
The clip has attracted significant attention online, particularly because Mbappe was seen alongside Exposito. A social-media post accompanying footage of the pair said they had reappeared holding hands during a romantic meeting in Madrid, suggesting they had moved away from the discretion that had marked their previous public appearances together.
The exchange comes as Mbappe continues an impressive start to the season with Real Madrid, following what was described as an exceptional appearance at the 2026 World Cup.
The French striker has scored four goals in his opening two La Liga matches. His latest goal came on Sunday, when Real Madrid recorded a 4-0 victory over Malaga.
Mbappe’s form has made him one of the early talking points of the campaign, but it was his reaction to the personal question – rather than his performance on the pitch – that dominated discussion after the Madrid video emerged.
The footage has since been shared widely across social-media platforms, generating further speculation about Mbappe and Exposito, although the brief exchange itself focused on Ronaldo and Rodriguez’s wedding.
Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodriguez have been the subject of sustained public interest during their relationship, while Mbappe has generally kept his private life away from detailed public discussion. His decision to avoid answering the question directly added to the attention surrounding the clip.
