She is a Colombian singer with a high reputation, he is a Spanish footballer that no one does not know.
Together,
Shakira (47) and Gerard Piqué (37)
are probably the most toxic combination in recent times and is there anything more ironic than that the two celebrate their birthdays on the same day?
probably not.
In honor of this festive day that took place today (Friday), we compiled the sequence of the dirtiest moments of the two, together and separately.
Treat yourself, thank us later.
The farewell to the mythical ex, the rebound and the financial agreement that paid off

Shakira and Fika met on the set of the official music video for the 2010 World Cup "Waka Waka", where they met for the first time.
The relationship began its confusing blossoming and the rest is history.
With all the dramas of the two, many forgot that shortly before she met Pika, the singer was after a no less publicized breakup with her legendary ex who also served as her personal manager, Antonio de la Rua - a businessman, lawyer and the son of the former president of Argentina.
So far everything is fine.
In August 2010 the Latin couple announced a mutual separation after more than ten years of marriage and the rebound sponsored by Pika, who later became the father of her children, took a turn thanks to their first son Milan.
In 2012, while they were waiting for the first baby, huge lawsuits were filed against Shakira for about 100 million dollars by the Argentinian ex, yes, you read that right.
De La Roa claimed that he helped develop the successful singer's career and position her as a leading brand in the international music industry (there is something to that).
It can be said that Shakira got away with it cheaply, after she acted wisely and remembered that the two signed a financial agreement at the beginning of their relationship as is known to the public, which led to the cancellation of the lawsuits without spending a single shekel.

The years passed and the two continued their personal and family development.
Shakira, who moved to Spain, became one of the most decorated artists, often winning major music awards and Fika continued to act as a stopper in the greatest football teams in history (or at least one of them, Barcelona of 2009-2013).
Until the rumors began about betrayals on the part of the footballer, which led to a dirty breakup at the beginning of June 2022.
Voila!
Celebs don't like to cheer for Id due to such breakups, but if there are those who like to air their dirty laundry, congratulations.
The reports on websites overseas revealed from various sources that Shakira found out about the betrayal following Zoom calls with the mistress (his current partner Clara Chia Marti) and caught them red-handed.
In addition, it was reported that the two did not live under the same roof before the separation, until the official announcement: "We regret to confirm that we are parting ways. For the well-being of our children, who are at the top of the list, we ask that you respect their privacy. Thank you for understanding."
In fact, they officially confirmed their intention to separate after 12 years and two children together.

Then the rush started.
A few days later, the actor decided to publish the mistress and officially announce her as a partner by all accounts - Clara Chia Marti, a 25-year-old student. Now among us, the great advantage of being a famous singer is the ability to convey hidden messages (in her case quite visible) and so she did .
Shakira released two songs - "Monotonía", which alludes to the one-sided relationship including sayings like "I never said anything but it hurt me, I knew it would happen. You became someone else, you left me because of your narcissism, you forgot what we used to be".
And the second, the song, in which she clearly says the names of the divorcee and the new girlfriend, with a sweet addition of bites like "exchanging a Rolex for a Casio", ouch Shakira'la.
8 years in prison?

Very quickly the issues of divorce, the house and the big money.
According to the song in question, Shakira claims that Fika left her in debt, and then the announcement of the new big complication came in September 2022. According to the Reuters news agency, the singer will stand trial on suspicion of tax evasion of
14.5 million euros
, which could lead to eight years in prison plus a demand for a fine of 23 million Euro (!!) if found guilty.
In the end, last November the court sentenced her to a "minimum" fine of 7.3 million euros without ever setting foot in prison.
To this day, it is not clear who is really responsible for the disappearances and the financial debts, but apart from the betrayal that never stopped haunting Pika (and rightfully so), he earned himself the title "Maniac in a square" (just not, we made it up) when he uploaded the first official photo with Marty, the young lover who became later to his partner.
Not just a traitor

According to reports, at the time Fika used to ask Akira for money to invest in his outside businesses but the Colombian singer refused.
In addition, the discourse on the financial requests revolved around Shakira's parents who did not particularly like the "excessive requests of the actor".
The Spanish footballer took advantage of his position and over time became a semi-political figure after declaring that he wanted to become the president of Barcelona in the future.
Over the years, along with the decline on the field, the audience began to sense a change and many were even upset that he became a brakeman who uses his personal connections to become a businessman and nothing else.
