Shakira made two attempts at a reunion with Gerard Pique but he decided he wanted a younger girlfriend to warm his lions
Shakira and Gerard Pique’s breakup is still a hot topic, with a slew of rumours circulating since the duo announced their split on Saturday.
They had been together since 2010, but never married, and are now divorcing after a 12-year relationship. When the couple released their statement on Saturday, it began, “We regret to confirm that we are splitting.”

“We ask that you respect the privacy of our children, as their safety is our first responsibility. Please accept my sincere gratitude for your patience.”
Shakira, according to 20minutos, made the final choice to split up and issue a statement after two failed attempts to reconcile the relationship.
They claim that even as the relationship deteriorated, Shakira was so enamoured with Pique that she attempted to reconcile with him at least once, if not twice.
Despite the anguish depicted in her recent single ‘Te Felicito,’ the Colombian held out hope of being able to heal the wounds, according to the same story from 20minutos.
However, this has not been possible, and 20minutos claims that they have been drifting apart for some time, despite the fact that the official statement was only released this week.
This is consistent with recent accounts that Pique had been living alone in an apartment for quite some time.
According to reports, Pique met a 22-year-old blonde.
There had been rumours and allegations concerning the marriage even before the formal statement, and El Periodico stated that Pique had been disloyal, despite other sites denying this.
The footballer was reportedly seen with a 22-year-old blonde girl who was a friend of Riqui Puig’s girlfriend, according to sources. She is said to hail from Spain and is an event hostess along with currently studying at an university. Pique was previously linked to the mother of Gavi as well.
On ‘Ya es Mediodia,’ journalist Lorena Vazquez claimed, “Pique had wanted to separate for a while, but not Shakira.”
