On Friday, singer Shakira showcased her undeniable style while supporting her son Milan at his baseball game in Valencia, Spain. With a relaxed and effortlessly cool demeanor, the 45-year-old Colombian pop star stood out in a vibrant pink t-shirt, complemented by a trendy bucket hat and sunglasses. This enjoyable family outing follows recent sightings of Shakira and her former partner Gerard Piqué, 35, outside a law firm, as they work towards resolving their divorce proceedings following their unexpected separation in June.
Shakira exuded an effortless sense of style as she showed her support for her son Milan at his baseball game in Valencia, Spain. The renowned singer effortlessly pulled off the look with black striped trousers, white sneakers, and a matching crossbody bag. Her bronzed makeup palette beautifully highlighted her natural features, while her golden locks were flawlessly straightened. Walking hand-in-hand with her adorable sons Milan, aged nine, and Sasha, aged seven, Shakira radiated happiness as they made their way to the stands. Although the couple announced their separation in July after twelve years of marriage, rumors of infidelity quickly began circulating in the Spanish media.
Breathtaking: At the sports event, the 45-year-old Colombian pop icon effortlessly captured attention with her vibrant pink t-shirt, accompanied by a fashionable bucket hat and trendy sunglasses.
Delightful: Radiating happiness, she strolled alongside her two sons Milan, aged nine, and Sasha, aged seven, as they headed towards the stands.
This outing followed revelations that Shakira has possibly found a way to address her grievances with her ex through her music, following allegations of infidelity by the Spanish footballer.
In her single “Te Felicito” (I Congratulate You), she subtly hinted at Piqué’s indiscretions.
A noteworthy line in the song translates to, ‘To complete you / I broke myself into pieces / I was warned, but I disregarded it / Don’t apologize to me / I know you too well and I know you’re lying.’
During an interview with Elle Magazine, the talented artist was questioned about this particular line and its apparent connection to her marital problems.
Chic: Shakira effortlessly enhanced her ensemble by adding black striped pants, white sneakers, and a coordinating crossbody purse.
Stunning: The popular singer known for “Hips Don’t Lie” showcased a sun-kissed makeup look that enhanced her natural beauty, while maintaining sleek, straight golden hair. Lulu Garcia-Navarro inquired if Shakira felt she had to give a part of herself in her past relationship, making it difficult to reclaim. In response, Shakira expressed that every emotion and experience she goes through finds its way into her lyrics and videos, consciously or not. Her music acts as a channel for her feelings. Within Shakira’s music video, she collaborated with Rauw Alejandro, the Puerto Rican singer who is currently involved with Rosalía. The video portrays Rauw Alejandro as both Shakira’s love interest and a mechanical replica of himself, brought to life by Shakira’s tinkering. Meanwhile, Shakira and Pique continue to negotiate their separation, as evidenced by their recent presence at a law firm.
In addition to her looming divorce, Shakira is currently facing legal troubles in the form of an upcoming trial centered around charges of tax fraud. Back in 2018, Spanish prosecutors alleged that the entertainer had neglected to pay 14.5 million euros ($13.9 million) in taxes on income earned between 2012 and 2014. If found guilty of tax evasion, prosecutors are seeking an eight-year prison sentence and a substantial fine. Despite the accusations, Shakira has consistently maintained her innocence and turned down a deal proposed by authorities to avoid going to trial. Her public relations firm has emphasized that she has already settled her outstanding taxes, as well as an additional 3 million euros ($2.8 million) in interest. The trial itself, consisting of six counts of tax fraud, has yet to have a set date and will take place in the town of Esplugues de Llobregat near Barcelona.
Improved days: The couple had been in a relationship since 2011, after crossing paths during the shooting of her World Cup song Waka Waka in the previous year; seen together in Barcelona in April 2015. Meanwhile, Shakira, the popular singer of “Hips Don’t Lie,” recently opened up for the first time about her unexpected split from Pique in a new interview with Elle Magazine’s October edition. However, she chose not to remain silent about his new romance with a significantly younger woman. The singer was open and honest about the challenges she has faced as her relationship with the athlete has unraveled, during an in-depth conversation with Lulu Garcia-Navarro. Shakira publicly addressed the separation stating, “Oh, it’s truly difficult to discuss this on a personal level, especially considering this is the first time I’m discussing it in an interview. I’ve chosen to remain silent and process everything. It’s hard to talk about it, particularly because I’m still going through it and because of the public spotlight and the unique circumstances of our separation. It has been incredibly tough, not just for me, but also for my children.”
She expressed that her family has been struggling with the constant attention on her personal life, as it brings challenges for them and makes it hard to maintain their privacy amidst the constant bombardment from the media and fans. Shakira emphasized that her main priority in life is to protect her children, so she has tried to shield them from the situation. However, she acknowledged that it can be difficult when they hear things from their friends at school or come across unpleasant news online, as it affects them. In June, the couple announced their split after being together for twelve years, although it appeared that Shakira was not ready to end the relationship at the time. Many were left wondering about the details of their breakup as Piqué has already moved on to a new relationship with a 23-year-old PR student named Clara Chia Marti. Recently, pictures surfaced of Piqué passionately kissing his new love interest in a video captured by Spanish media outlet Socialite at the Summerfest Cerdanya festival in Catalonia.
Split: Shakira and Gerard ended their relationship four months ago (depicted with their kids Milan, aged nine, and Sasha, aged seven).
