In the middle of this year, the separation of the couple made up of the queen of Latin music Shakira, and the Spanish soccer player Gerard Piqué, was announced, and the reason for the separation was finally revealed.
The couple met during the filming of the music video for “Waka Waka“, the official song of the FIFA World Cup in 2010. The Colombian in charge of the song, and the Spanish part of the soccer players that would appear in the music video, they met on the recording set and clicked immediately.
The couple share two children, Milan and Sasha, but after 12 years as the public’s favorite couple, they unexpectedly separated without further explanation. Later, it was learned that Piqué was in an affair with the young actress Clara Chía, with whom he would have cheated on Shakira.
Shakira and partner Gerard Piqué often argue over her poor time management.
