Shakira gave up her dreams because of Gerard Pique: "As an active soccer player, he wanted to play. One of us had to sacrifice"
Shakira is still dealing with her past. Although several months have passed since her breakup with Gerard Pique, the 46-year-old is still picking at the wounds. In an interview with "Elle" magazine, she confessed that her former partner shattered her dreams.
About the breakup of Shakira and Gerard Piqué, practically everyone was talking. One of the favorite couples in show business parted ways after 12 years of being together. The footballer betrayed the Colombian star with a 23-year-old mistress. 46-year-old found out about the reprehensible behavior of her partner accidentally.
I found out from the press that I was betrayed when my father was in the ICU - she said some time ago in the "People" magazine
Shakira, affected by her partner's infidelity, decided to publicize her pain and regularly air her family's dirty laundry. During a conversation with "Elle" magazine, she spoke about how she coped with the breakup with the footballer.
I kept silent and tried to process it all. I still find it hard to talk about it. I suffer all the time. I believe that when a family is destroyed, nothing can compensate for that pain. I realize I am in the limelight and in the center of media attention because our separation was loud. This time has been difficult for both me and my children - she explained, quoted by billboard.com.
Music is a remedy for a broken heart for Shakira
Shakira's Latin temperament doesn't allow her to be silent, and a few days ago the latest single from the 46-year-old - "El Jefe" - was released. In the lyrical content, the star has chosen to defend the working class, but of course has found another opportunity to again aim at the former FC Barcelona defender. The singer doesn't hide that in the current situation, work has become a sort of remedy for her.
This was the darkest moment of my life. Music became a form of escape for my broken heart and it brought light into life - she confessed.
The singer does not hide that she dedicated her career to her relationship with Pique. She also confessed that she did it because her dream was to have a happy family and raise children with their father.
As an active football player, he wanted to play football and win titles, and I supported him in this. One of us had to make a sacrifice, right? We had two options. The first one involved terminating Pique's contract with Barcelona and moving with me to the United States. The second option was that I had to give up my career - she stated in a conversation.
My priority was raising children with their father, starting a family. Overcoming problems, hurdles, and aging alongside someone. I now know that I will not have that. I believed in it until death do us part - she added at the end.
Do you think he will ever fulfill his dream?
