Ronaldo, 37, wants to leave the Red Devils to contend for the biggest trophies in the latter stages of his career.
According to Spanish newspaper Diario Sport, however, there are also other reasons.
They claim that Georgina wants to return to Spain, with Madrid top of the list.
Georgina and Cristiano met in the Spanish capital in 2016, when the forward was playing for Real.
But he could return to the city to represent rivals Atletico.
Boss Diego Simeone is interested in bringing the Portuguese star back to LaLiga.
Simeone believes that Ronaldo could make a similar to impact to Luis Suarez, with the Uruguayan having fired Atleti to the title during his first season at the Wanda Metropolitano.
Ronaldo's wage demands could provide a stumbling block, however, with Atletico possibly having to raise £34million in player sales to be able to sign him.
United have publicly maintained that he is not for sale, with boss Erik ten Hag claiming that Ronaldo IS in his plans.
Cristiano and Georgina moved away from Madrid in 2018, starting a new life in Turin when Ronaldo joined Juventus.
After three years in Serie A, Ronaldo moved back to United, having previously played at Old Trafford long before meeting Georgina.
United's No7 is also desperate to play in the Champions League next term.
He is the competition's all-time leading goalscorer with 140, and he is keen for Lionel Messi not to catch him up.
The Argentine, 35, has netted 125 times in the competition.
