The singer seems to have chosen to speak openly and bluntly about her ex-partner, Gerard Pique, and all the sacrifices he had to endure in their 11-year relationship. In a recent interview with "The Sunday Times", Shakira said that she had to give up her career so that Gerard could follow his passion.
In June 2022, the famous couple made public the decision to separate through a joint statement. "We regret to confirm that we are separating," the statement read. "We ask for privacy at this difficult moment, especially for the well-being of our children, who are our highest priority."
In several other public appearances, Shakira has spoken about the difficult moments she experienced until overcoming the feeling of separation, the relationship with her children, her ex-partner, etc. Although, her parents are still living a 50-year love story, apparently this was not the case for the singer.
"My priority was my home, my family. I believed in the expression 'till death do us part'. I believed in that dream," she said in an interview. "My parents are still together, for 50 years, and they love each other - the other like the first day, with a unique and unrepeatable love. So, I know that this is possible. It's what I wanted for myself and my children, but it didn't happen," added the singer.
Shakira and her ex, Piqué, first met in 2010 on the set of the music video for "Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)" before publicly confirming the relationship in 2011. They are parents to two children, Milan , 11 years old and Sasha, 9 years old.
In June 2022, the famous couple made public the decision to separate through a joint statement. "We regret to confirm that we are separating," the statement read. "We ask for privacy at this difficult moment, especially for the well-being of our children, who are our highest priority."
