“Even if Someone’s Betrayed Us…” – Shakira Takes a Swipe at Ex-boyfriend Gerard Piqué as She Pens Down an Emotional New Year Message

The world welcomed the new year, full of hopes. Every celebrity posts on social media for their fans to wish them a great year ahead. The most notable one, however, was the post by Shakira. Fans are speculating about what it meant and who is it aimed at. The cryptic message was posted just after the ball dropped and it seems to be a dig at former partner Gerard Pique.

Shakira posted a long message on New years on Instagram. In the message, she talks about betrayal and someone leaving. It is not hard to see the parallels between this message and what happened last year in her real life. Maybe this message isn’t just a random metaphor.

Power couple Shakira and Pique were together for 12 years and have two kids together. However, in June 2022, they put out a joint statement announcing their separation. The news sent shockwaves to fans. Months later, Shakira, in an interview, opened up about how this separation has been hard for her to process.

Shakira posted a text image on Instagram in which she wrote, ” Although our wounds are still open in this new year, the time has surgeon’s hands… Even if someone has betrayed us, we must continue to trust others… The ones who leave are fewer than the many who stay by our side. Our tears are not in vain, they water the soil our future will spring from and make us more human so that even while suffering heartache, we can continue to love.“

Keeping everything in mind, it is very clear that at the very least Shakira let some of her feelings out. It is not easy to reject the idea of this related to Pique. She has been vocal about how she feels about the separation.

In September last year, almost 3 months after announcing the separation, Shakira appeared in talks with Elle Magazine where she went to lengths to talk about how she was just trying to process it all and how it can be hard to talk about.
