In June, Shakira and Pique ended a relationship that lasted several years.
For the first time, Shakira spoke publicly about breaking up with Gerard Pique, a Barcelona player. The singer stressed that it was “very difficult” to approach the topic and that she had lived “difficult and dark hours”, in which she feels that everything was nothing more than a “nightmare”.
“I remained silent and tried to process everything. It is difficult to talk about this, especially since I still have this, I am in the public eye and because our breakup was not an ordinary breakup. So it is difficult not only for me but also for my children. It is very difficult, ” He said in an interview with Elle magazine.
The Colombian woman added, “I tried to hide the situation from my children. I try to do this to protect them, because this is my number one job. But they hear things at school and they see news that affects them.”
Music was a way to cure this disappointment. “Writing songs is like going to a psychiatrist, it’s cheaper. It’s one of the few tools I have for surviving these situations. My work allows me to pull myself together, and makes me realize who I am and what my mission is,” he said. So the music helped the artist “in the darkest times.”
