MOSCOW, June 3, Andrey Vasilchin. Gerard Pique and Shakira have been called one of the brightest couples in the world of sports and show business for many years. The titled football player and pop music star have been together for more than ten years, during which they did not give reason to doubt the sincerity of their feelings. But even such a strong union can come to an end. The Spanish media blew up a real infobomb and reported on the separation of Pique and Shakira. The reason for the gap is the betrayal of the Barcelona defender, whom Shakira found with another girl right in their house. At first, the mother of 17-year-old midfielder Gavi, who is a teammate of Pique, was called the culprit of the breakup. But it quickly became clear that she had nothing to do with Gerard, and a 20-year-old student became Pique's new love interest.The media noted that the 35-year-old footballer has gone rogue lately. Pique frequents Catalan nightclubs with teammate Ricky Puig. Players have been spotted leaving entertainment venues at 2:00 a.m. on several occasions, which is a violation of the sports regime. If the rumors turn out to be true, then the sports world will lose one of its brightest and most famous couples. Many fans will be saddened by this news, because the love story of Piqué and Shakira is like a real fairy tale. It all started with a stupid question. The 2010 World Cup became fateful for the couple. Shakira recorded the official track for the tournament, which was called Waka Waka. Piqué was one of the invited guests to film the video for this song. The football player appeared in the frame for only a few seconds and did not spend much time on the set, but it was enough to exchange numbers with the Colombian artist.At that time, both the football player and the singer were in a relationship, so they could not start an affair right off the bat. Shakira then met with the son of the former president of Argentina, and the defender was with one little-known Spanish actress. But that video shooting became the starting point for their relationship, giving them mutual sympathy. The singer went to South Africa, where the World Cup was held, a few days earlier than the Spanish team. Before flying to Africa, Piqué decided to write to her, asking an everyday question: «What's the weather like there?» Instead of the usual «fine» Shakira wrote a huge message, describing everything in detail. «I asked a stupid question, but she gave a long answer, describing in detail how the temperature changes throughout the day in South Africa. Due to the tight schedule, we could only meet after the final World Cup, where she was supposed to perform. I told Shakira that if you need to reach the final for a new meeting, then I will do it, «said Piqué. The defender kept his word and helped the Spanish team win the tournament. He managed to chat with Shakira after the performance, and since then they decided not to leave. The footballer and singer ended their past relationship and began to live together, no longer hiding their feelings in front of the public. In an interview, Piqué and Shakira admitted that the age difference does not affect their relationship in any way. The football player is exactly 10 years younger than his chosen one. In 2013, the couple had a son, who was named Milan. Two years later, the second child was born, who was given the name Sasha. «The name Sasha is of Greek and Russian origin, it means» defender of humanity «and» warrior, «the singer explained. In 2011, she went on a world tour, after which she refused a long tour for seven years. .
