Gerard Pique accuses Shakira of being MISLEADING about their break-up – and says he’s ‘very happy’ with his new girlfriend, 12 years his junior

Gerard Pique has accused Shakira of not being fully truthful about their break-up in a rare interview on the subject over two years after they split. 

Shakira, 47, announced that she was breaking up with the former Barcelona star in June 2022 amid rumours of him cheating after 11 years and two children together. 

The Colombian star has since gone on to brand him ‘Voldemort’ among other digs at Pique in her music. 

Now Pique, 37, is with 25-year-old Clara Chia Marti – and insists he is ‘very happy’ even if Shakira has fired shots at her as well. 

‘In the end, the truth or what happens or occurs is not told in the way it was. I cannot control this,’ Pique told CNN, via AS.

‘The best thing is that in the end I am surrounded by my loved ones , my family, my friends, the people who really know you. They know what you are like and what you do, and that gives me a lot of peace of mind.’

‘I am very happy, I have a great time and I feel privileged. The life I have had, being able to play for the club of my life for more than twenty years, wonderful children, an incredible family, lifelong friends, those from school that I still have.’

Pique and Shakira had two sons together: Milan and Sasha.

In 2022, Spanish outlet El Periodico reported that the couple had been living separately for a few weeks after Pique was kicked out of the family home by the pop star.

There was a theory that Shakira uncovered his alleged cheating by discovering that a jar of strawberry jam in their home together had been eaten while she was away. Shakira was reportedly the only strawberry jam eater in the relationship.

However, the South American singer has since debunked that myth. 

In the summer of 2023, Pique reportedly moved in with Clara Chia- in the home he had shared with Shakira when she first moved to Barcelona.  

In January 2023, video footage emerged which is said to show Gerard’s new girlfriend in the footballer’s family home before his split from Shakira.

Shakira was reportedly left ‘devastated’ at the unearthed footage from August 2021, which was recorded ten months before she announced she had split from her partner of 11 years.

Gerard’s new girlfriend Clara appears to be in the background of a zoom interview the footballer did from his family home in Barcelona, while Shakira was reportedly abroad with their two children.

Clara is an employee of Pique’s company Kosmos.
