Pop icon Shakira and footballer Gerard Pique were among the most well-known celebrity couples on Earth. However, after 12 years, the two have decided to call it quits. In a statement, the couple said, “We regret to confirm that we are separating. For the well-being of our children, who are our upmost priority, we request respect for (our) privacy".
The announcement comes just days after a report by Barcelona-based El Periodic that Shakira found out that Gerard Pique was cheating on her with another woman. Rumors also suggested that the two were no longer living in the same house.

They divorced in order to split the assets so that those can be shielded from his debtors. Don't worry, fat whores, she still rides his intact dong day and night every day.

Please, every Latina knows their man is sleeping around, I agree there is more to this.
Which reminds me, it's been too long since I've been to Barcelona. Partner and I were supposed to go in September 2020 but we know how that went.
Guys like him are a dime a dozen there.

Ah, the Footballers in Love thread memories are all flooding back. How's Zlatan's relationship with his mother-like wife coming along?
Of course, he's cheating and probably has all along. It's what footballers do second best.

Pique has something of an unpleasant aura and he seems to still live the party life even well into his thirties. I can imagine certain players like Thomas Muller or Iniesta, who have quieter lifestyles, or Messi, who seems to thrive on routine, are happy at home, but cheating seems to be rife in football.

Unreal. Feels like they've been together 40 years, not 12.
Gerard & Shakira started dating way back when I was a naive perky little soccer-fanatic, focused only on surviving/graduating high-school and lusting over young 21-year old upstart Jordan Henderson (over whom I still lust, but we're both in our dirty 30s with jobs and exhausted now).

From a friend who claims to know them first hand and hates him (says he’s homophobic) He’s well known to be very old school about a man can cheat but a woman has to be at his beck and call. She wasn’t allowed to be alone with men. He wanted her to give up her career. He’s also younger than her so he was cheating with younger hoes to make her feel insecure. He uses the “religious” route to sound like he’s a “family man”.

R50 people may disagree, but knowing what I know about mens’ pro soccer/football, I struggle to consider any top-flight player as Kinsey 0. They’ve all at least had a gay thought or almost-moment, been curious. It’s part of the sport.

Your description of the sport pretty much gives you away as American, meaning you know next nothing about it. The sport (players and fans) one of the most homophobic in the world. More than the NFL, NBA, MBA or even MMA which has embraced gay fighters. A gay player would be mercilessly heckled in most leagues.

R53 clearly I wasn’t on about Out players, though, was I? It’s naive to suggest that men must identify publicly as gay or exist in liberal/tolerant surrounding in order to participate in private same-sex activity.
And I’m English as they come, mate (well, a bit Welsh as well, to be fair). Is a Yank really going to start and maintain a dozen threads about Jack Grealish? Or opine the chances of the England World Cup squad? None of youse even know who the players are, besides me...

To be honest, they deserved each other.
He has recently been involved in a huge bribery and corruption scandal in Spain, so his public "nice guy" image is shattered - not to mention that he had courted the Catalan independence movement for a very long time, and the fact that he was in business with former king (or rather, career criminal) Juan Carlos, who is rabidly anti-Catalan, has turned many Catalan people against him. Anyway, I have never liked him: he is incredibly arrogant for a not-so-impressive talent, and is't particularly intelligent on top of it all. However, he has proven to be willing to do anything in order to make money.
She's been dragged to court for tax evasion and plagiarism several times in the last 20 years, and is known to be a raging cunt who treats the little people like shit whenever the cameras are not on. She is one of the most pretentious celebrities ever, not to mention that she's an embarrassingly bad poetaster who has been exposed as a fraud when it comes to the composition of her own songs (in several plagiarism cases, she has defended herself by arguing that she is not really involved in the writing process of her songs, but merely decides what she likes and doesn't like when it comes to production).
By the way, she has always known that he cheated, but she was crazy about him and tolerated it. They met during the filming of her ridiculous Waka Waka video, and she pursued him relentlessly until he agreed to date her - in which I am sure that her USD350 million fortune, played a huge role. However, now that his public image has taken a huge hit, I suppose that she wasn't willing to put up with unfaithfulness anymore... Also, she needs a distraction for the fact that she's being investigated again for tax evasion, over the Pandora Papers. What could be better than a salacious sex scandal that paints her as a philanderer's long suffering wife?
