A year ago, Shakira and Gerard Piqué announced their split after 11 years together.
Since then, the singer released the chart-topping bop, BZRP Music Sessions #53 — addressing her ex and his new girlfriend, Clara Chia Marti.
And now, Shakira’s opening up about how she found out Gerard “betrayed” her. In a cover story interview with People en Español, she revealed she heard the news shortly after her father, William Mebarak Chadid, was admitted to the hospital after a bad fall.
“He went to Barcelona to console me after I was consumed with sadness because of my separation. While he was at Milan’s first communion, he was gravely injured in an accident. Everything happened at once. My home was falling apart. I was finding out through the press that I had been betrayed while my dad was in the ICU.”
At the time, the singer thought she “wasn’t going to survive.”
“The man I have loved the most in my life, my father, was leaving me when I needed him the most. I couldn’t talk to him, or go to my best friend for the advice I needed so much.”
Though her dad’s recovery has been difficult, Shakira called him a “wonderful man and an endearing character who surprises us all with his strength.”
“He has overcome COVID once, two accidents, one pneumonia and five surgeries — all of this at 91 years of age, in less than six months. My dad is the biggest example of resilience, and my mother has been by his side day and night. They have both been a reflection of that dream that didn’t come true for me. But I hope they are role models for my kids of love, of patience in relationships, of absolute devotion and zest for life,” she concluded.
Wishing you all the best, Shakira!
