Piqué and Shakira met in 2010 when she was filming the music video for her song Waka Waka (This time for Africa) to promote the 2010 FIFA World Cup. Piqué appeared in the video and the couple started dating.
During the 12 years of love, the couple has never been married, the singer once stated that the marriage made her “frightened”.
Speaking on 60 minutes US in December 2020, Shakira told interviewer Bill Whittaker: “We’re not married. To tell you the truth, marriage scares me. I don’t want him to consider me a wife. I would rather be him. He sees me as his girlfriend.”
She and Piqué have a 10-year age difference, with Piqué being the younger suitor. Since the couple officially split in June, the footballer has been attached to a younger woman – 23-year-old PR student Clara Chia Marti.
