GEORGINA RODRIGUEZ will tell fans her loving family brought her back from the brink of despair after the death of one of her twins in the second series of her hit reality show.

And after Netflix confirmed I Am Georgina would return "soon", the early details regarding the emotional turmoil she went through following the devastating loss in April are emerging.

Netflix Spain's Director of Entertainment Alvaro Diaz revealed the tragedy the pretty model and influencer and her Manchester United partner suffered will form a key part of the second series.

And Georgina confessed in a preview of what she will say about the drama released to journalists at a Spanish TV and radio film festival: "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."

The 28-year-old Spaniard has said little about the death of one of her twins during childbirth since she and Cristiano announced their loss on April 18.

A heart-wrenching statement at the time said: "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."

Georgina called her surviving girl Bella Esmeralda her "small great blessing" in an emotional social media post showing her sleeping with a dummy in her mouth when she was nearly four months old.

Bella Esmeralda is one of two children she has with Ronaldo - she acts as mum to his other three kids Cristiano Jr, 12, and five-year-old twins Eva and Mateo.

Late last month she posted another photo of her newborn clutching her thumb alongside the touching message: "In skin, soul and heart."

A few days earlier Georgina was pictured making a surprise visit to the holy site of Fatima in Portugal in a visit which is also due to feature in the second series of I Am Georgina.

Alvaro Diaz, confirming Netflix had jumped at the chance of putting her back in front of its cameras, said: "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."

He added during a presentation of Netflix Spain's up-and-coming shows to journalists at FestTVal: "Georgina and her loved ones have experienced something very complicated and fans will see that she has dealt with it with naturalness and generosity.

"The new series will feature moments of the most absolute sadness and the heart-wrenching loss 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."

The first series of I Am Georgina premiered in 190 countries oon January 27 - Georgina's 28th birthday - and became an instant top ten hit in many.

Cristiano, left covered in blood last night after a painful collision with Czech Republic keeper Tomas Vaclik during an international with Portugal, confessed in the first series he was "1000 per cent certain" he would end up tying the knot with his former £10-an-hour shop worker partner.

Georgina revealed in season one she went from taking public transport to get to the Gucci store where she met Cristiano in 2016 to being ferried around in his fleet of high-powered sports cars.

It is not yet clear if the pre-season uncertainty surrounding the striker's future at Old Trafford will feature at all in the second series, set to be called I Am Georgina 2.

The 37-year-old, who is missing out on Champions League football, will now remain with the Red Devils until at least January following the closure of the transfer window.

But as revealed by SunSport, he is expected to push for an exit after losing his place in the team to Marcus Rashford.
