The ‘Hips Don’t Lie’ singer split from her partner of 11 years in 2022. Shakira has shared how Chris Martin supported her after her split from Gerard Piqué. “He was there for me when I got separated and was heartbroken,” she said. “He was checking in every day to see how I was doing, sending me words of support and strength and wisdom.”.
She continued to gush about the Coldplay frontman, adding: “I see him as a person who sees life through a different lens, who’s sensitive to other people’s needs and very empathetic, very empathetic.”. Shakira and Martin have been close friends for years and even had the opportunity to work together. In 2014, they were both on The Voice, as Shakira was a coach and Martin was a guest mentor. They also performed together at The Global Citizen Festival in 2017.
The “Hips Don’t Lie” singer and Piqué — who share two sons, Milan, 11, and Sasha, nine — announced their split in June 2022. Months later, Piqué was spotted with his now-girlfriend Clara Chia Marti, prompting speculation that he cheated on Shakira.
“This car was a gift to myself as I began my single life, but I realized that what truly matters is human connection,” she explained in a press release. “The car, the clothes, the material things — they don’t transform us. It’s the people we love and the connections we build that truly make a difference.”.
