Shakira and Gerard Piqué break up after 11 years together following cheating allegations
It's just been announced that Shakira and Gerard Piqué are going their separate ways, shortly after the couple were hit by cheating allegations.
If you cast your minds back to a few weeks ago, you may remember that the 35-year-old FC Barcelona player was accused of cheating on the 45-year-old Hips Don't Lie singer, with whom he shares two sons, Milan, 9, and Sasha, 7.

The former couple issued a brief statement confirming their split and asking for privacy as they try to navigate their new life…
"We regret to confirm that we are separating," their joint statement read.
"We ask for privacy at this moment for the well-being of our children, who are our maximum priority.
"Thank you in advance for your understanding and respect."
The soccer star and the Columbian singer have reportedly been living separately ever since she allegedly kicked him out of their family home after allegedly (we can't stress that word enough!) catching him with another woman.
Piqué has reportedly been living in his bachelor pad ever since, with El Periodico saying that he has been living a "party lifestyle."
We guess the former couple will now be very glad that they never tied the knot, as they have avoided a potentially messy divorce!
Shakira previously opened up about one of the reasons why she never wanted to walk down the aisle, telling 60 Minutes back in 2020 that she never wanted the soccer star to see her as "the wife."
"To tell you the truth, marriage scares the s*** out of me," she candidly said at the time.
"I don't want him to see me as the wife. I'd rather him see me as his girlfriend.
"His lover, his girlfriend. It's like a little forbidden fruit, you know? I wanna keep him on his toes.
"I want him to think that anything's possible depending on behavior."
