Meet Manuel Ugarte’s GF, Georgia May Heath, The Model Steals The Spotlight At FIFA World Cup 2026

Uruguay faced Cape Verde on June 21, 2026 (ET) at Hard Rock Stadium, Miami Gardens. Both teams were chasing their first win in the Group Stage category of the FIFA World Cup 2026. In their opener, Uruguay drew 1-1 with Saudi Arabia. Despite Marcelo Bielsa’s side creating plenty of chances, the team lacked the cutting edge to win. Manuel Ugarte struck the post with one of their best openings. However, the question remained: Will Manual Ugarte be able to beat Cape Verde, the biggest surprise of Matchday 1?

For the unversed, Manchester United’s midfielder, Manuel Ugarte, has been a key player for Uruguay despite not being a nailed-on starter. He has made only 22 club appearances this season, but he still has plenty ahead of him. While the match is over, and it seems like the two teams seemed to have tied, fans have now turned their attention to the stands instead of the field. And on the sidelines, one face seemed to have stood out the most. Yes! We are talking about the very gorgeous Georgia May Heath, who is also Manuel’s girlfriend.

Who is Georgia May Heath?

Georgia May Heath is a model and influencer. She was born in the UK on May 13, 1997, making her 29 years old. The influencer was spotted among the fans just a month after she celebrated her birthday in May 2026. She is four years older than Manuel Ugarte, has around 240,000 Instagram followers, and is also active on LTK, a platform where fashion bloggers, brands, and shoppers connect over style.

Manuel Ugarte and Georgia May Heath first sparked the buzz around their blooming romance, with their first joint photos appearing online on social media. According to reports, the couple shared holiday snaps from Ibiza in swimwear. Georgia captioned one romantic post, “Good company!” 

However, that is not all. The couple is often seen together in pictures shared on social media platforms. Georgia May Heath also makes a point of showing up to support her boyfriend during matches. In April 2026, she publicly wished him a happy birthday, calling him “mi amor”. The social media model, who splits her time between the UK and Australia, not only cheered for the Manchester United ace from the Miami Stadium stands on Monday, June 21, 2026 (ET), but was also seen at Uruguay’s match earlier with Saudi Arabia.

Georgia May Heath was also rumoured to be linked to Kylian Mbappe

For the unversed, while Georgia May Heath and Manuel Ugarte seem to be growing strong, the social media influencer was previously linked to another ace player. Yes! You heard that right. In 2021, French media linked Georgia May Heath romantically to Kylian Mbappe after they were spotted at dinner in Greece. Nothing further emerged about the alleged couple. The buzz around their brewing romance was intense. However, their relationship was never confirmed. But if they had been a couple, the paparazzi would almost certainly have exposed them. The dinner was almost certainly purely friendly.
