Since breaking up with Gerard Pique, Shakira has always been in the spotlight. In recent times, she has rediscovered her interest in sports. Along with her random appearances at several Grand Prix, the singer has also made it to NBA games. In fact, she has become quite a popular fan of Jimmy Butler and his Miami Heat team. And it is not only the ever-famous mother who became a fan. Weeks ago, her sons Milan and Sasha also made an appearance at a Heat game in the NBA.
Currently, Shakira is spending time in her hometown in Colombia. She is accompanying her father who has reportedly had an important surgery for his brain injury. Hours before traveling, the Waka–Waka singer decided to hopefully witness Butler’s magic one last time this season. But his team turned out to be far from the best team on that day.

The last time Shakira made an NBA appearance was during the last round. She witnessed the Heat’s Game 4 against the Boston Celtics. But that game turned out to be the start of an embarrassing losing streak against the Celtics. Luckily, they scraped through to the finals. But things aren’t going well! Currently, Butler and his team are trailing by a 3-1 deficit.
The Waka–Waka singer had turned up for Game 3 of the final series. But Butler’s 28-pointer wasn’t enough to surpass the likes of Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic. After witnessing a disappointing 94 – 109 scoreline, the singer flew back to her home country. Reportedly, her father underwent surgery at the Serena del Mar Hospital in Cartagena de Indias. The medical team of the Santa de Foundation will take care of him.
Just weeks before his surgery, William Mebarak was also in Miami. And Milan and Sasha could meet their grandfather before his critical surgery. Also, the Colombian icon reportedly has a ‘confidentiality’ contract with the hospital. The contract will prevent the hospital from sharing any medical details or news about her father with the press.
While the fanbase continues to pray for Mr. William Mebarak’s speedy recovery, rumors regarding Shakira and Lewis Hamilton still exist.

In the last few days, the rumors in relation to Shakira and the F1 racer have reached another level. People first suspected that there is something going on between her and Jimmy Butler. But the sources were seemingly wrong about it. The Colombian icon is reportedly in a secret relationship with the Mercedes racer.
A day ago, a close source confirmed that they were already dating. At this point, they are reportedly in the ‘getting to know’ each other stage. Neither of them has still made a direct comment on the same. However, while Gerard Pique has already moved on with his girlfriend, Shakira’s fandom is excited for her new romance with the F1 superstar and has already began to ‘ship’.
