Colombian Artist Shakira & Footballer Gerard Pique Announce Separation

Shakira, a Colombian singer, and Gerard Pique, a defender for FC Barcelona, have announced their separation after a decade-long relationship on June 4. They had been living together on the outskirts of Barcelona for years and have two boys. The couple disclosed their split only a week after Spanish court records pushed Shakira closer to facing tax fraud charges in Spain after a Barcelona court refused her appeal.
