As you remember, the 45-year-old Latin pop star and her 35-year-old soccer partner Gerard Piqué announced about three months ago their separation, after a decade of a highly publicized, dramatic and photogenic relationship.

Although she was not ripe for marriage, the two have children together - nine-year-old Milan and seven-year-old Sasha.

Just this week it was reported that the footballer cheated on her in 2012 with none other than Israeli model Bar Refaeli.

"I feel that at this point in my life, which is probably one of the hardest and darkest in my life, music has brought me light," said Shakira in an interview for the October issue of Elle magazine, in which she spoke for the first time officially about the breakup and the life after it.

"I kept silent and tried to digest everything," she explained why she chose not to comment until now.

"And yes," she admitted, "it's hard to talk about it, especially when I'm still in it. I'm in the public eye, and our breakup is not a 'normal' breakup. It's hard not only for me but also for my children."

Shakira added and shared the media coverage of the breakup, and how disturbing and exhausting it is.

"The paparazzi are lurking outside my house 24/7. There is no place I can hide with my children except my house. We can't walk around the park like a normal family, or just go eat ice cream without the photographers following us. It's hard, I tried to hide the situation from my children ", told about the way she protects her two sons.

"I try to do that and protect them, because that's the number one task in my life. But then they hear things at school from their friends, or come across unpleasant news online, and it affects them."

She said that she feels that this is a bad dream that she hopes to wake up from eventually, and then I find out again and again that the prison is mythical.

"What's more real," she added, "is seeing how something I thought was so sacred like my relationship, turned with the help of the media into something vulgar and cheap, and all this while my father is hospitalized in intensive care. I'm fighting on different fronts," said the singer.

As mentioned, these days she is also dealing with her father's frail health, and with a huge lawsuit for tax evasion in the millions on her part, which could land her in prison for many years if she is convicted.

Although, according to the various reports, the former couple agreed on a civilized separation for the sake of their children, which included an agreement that they would not be recorded with new partners in public for the coming year, Pika has already broken his part and was seen very close to Clara Chia Marti, a 23-year-old young woman at a festival in Catalonia.

The two were both recorded by passersby.

"These details are too personal to share, at least at the moment," Shakira avoided an explicit answer when asked about Pika's new relationship.

"Everything is still new and fresh. I can only say that I gave everything for this relationship and for the family," she concluded.
