Soccer star Gerard Pique and his longtime girlfriend Shakira have officially broken up amid cheating rumors.
On Saturday, Shakira’s PR team released a statement announcing the breakup.
“We regret to confirm that we are separating,” the two said in a statement released by Shakira’s public relations firm. “For the well-being of our children, who are our highest priority, we ask that you respect our privacy. Thank you for your understanding.
According to Lorena Vazquez and Laura Fa of the Spanish newspaper El Periodico, Shakira recently caught Pique cheating on her with a 20-year-old student/event hostess from Barcelona.

Lorena Vazquez and Laura Fa, who are two journalists at El Periodico, have affirmed that Pique was meeting with a young blonde girl aged 20, who is a student and an event hostess in Barcelona. However, her identity has not been revealed, at least not yet.
Apparently, people who live close to Shakira and Pique have not seen the couple together in quite some time.
However, the relationship appears to be tense, and other parents at their children’s school have stated that Shakira and Pique haven’t been seen picking up the kids together for some time.
It is even alleged that Shakira took the children to Ibiza for a family holiday in May, but that Pique didn’t join them.
Pique and Shakira met at the 2010 World Cup and began dating soon after. The couple have two children, Milan and Sash, but never legally married.
