Shakira talks about her break with Gerard Pique for the first time: “It’s extremely difficult” | Celebrities

CelebritiesIn June, singer Shakira and footballer Gerard Piqué broke up after an 11-year relationship. About three months after the news became known, the Colombian has now spoken out for the first time about the very public breakup. “He remains the father of my children”, it sounds in ‘Elle’.

In her interview with ‘Elle’, the 45-year-old singer explained that she deliberately did not make any statements about her breakup with 35-year-old football player Gerard Pique. “It’s hard to talk about it, especially because I’m still processing everything. Since I am a public figure, our breakup is also different than usual.”

Protect offspring

The Colombian singer is not the only one who is having a hard time with the break-up. “It is also extremely difficult for my children,” he continues. Shakira and Gerard Pique have two sons together: Milan (9) and Sasha (7). The artist also wants to protect her offspring as best as possible. But that is rather difficult if “the paparazzi is constantly in front of your house”. Shakira also talked about the reason for her break with Pique. According to the singer, both parties have a flourishing career. Only the Colombian is mainly successful in the United States. For Pique it was important to stay in the Spanish Barcelona.

Shakira did not comment further on the footballer’s alleged adultery. She also declined to go into details of the breakup. According to the singer, it is all still “too new”. She also wants to do everything she can to protect her children. “It doesn’t matter how things ended or how Gerard and I feel. He remains the father of my children.” She continued: “Our job is to take care of these wonderful boys and I am confident that we will do the best for their future and their own dreams.”
