Colombian singer, Shakira and Barcelona defender, Gerard Pique have reportedly confirmed their split via social media.

 

The duo started their relationship in 2010 amid the South Africa World Cup. They share two sons, Milan and Sasha.

 

Shakira’s communication agency released a statement concerning the split.

 

According to the agency, Shakira said, “We regret to confirm that we are parting ways.

 

“For the well-being of our children, who are our highest priority, we ask that you respect their privacy.

 

“Thank you for your understanding.”

 

This is coming after the Barcelona defender was allegedly caught in bed with another woman.

 

Amid the controversy, Suzy Cortez, better known as Miss BumBum, also claimed that Pique hit on her.

 

Cortez told El Diario NY, “He was the one who sent me -message- more direct. The only Barcelona players who never sent me anything were Messi and Coutinho.

 

“They are great husbands and they respect their wives a lot. Shakira didn’t deserve this”.

 

According to sources, Shakira and Pique have been living separately for a few weeks after Pique was kicked out of their family home.

 

Shakira hinted at a crisis in their union in her latest hit ‘Te Felicito’ with Rauw Alejandro, with the 45-year-old singing.

 

She said, “To complete you I broke into pieces; I was warned, but I didn’t listen; I realised that yours is false; it was the drop that overflowed the glass; Don’t tell me you’re sorry, that sounds sincere, but I know you well and I know you’re lying.”
