“Looking Back Is of Little Use” – After Shakira Forced to Pick Between GF and Kids, Gerard Pique Reflects on Life After Retirement

Life has been quite complicated for Gerard Pique after retiring from soccer. Even though he started his new Kings League venture, his personal life hasn’t been very smooth. That’s because of the public uproar that he faced from the fans. In a recent interview, Pique reflects on how his life has been after retiring from the game. He doesn’t directly mention Shakira but his words slightly pointed toward the singer.

Last month, the FC Barcelona legend had to make an important choice whether to be with his children or his girlfriend. Shakira’s ex-boyfriend looks to stabilize his life, but with his kids in another country, it seemingly becomes a hassle.

Gerard Pique states that he is very ‘cold’ about his decision to leave

In current times, Gerard Pique has been quite busy with his professional life. His Kings League is currently in its second season. Last month, his children visited him in Barcelona after the soccer veteran once reportedly stated that he couldn’t leave Spain for a continuous stretch due to his commitments. He spent about two weeks with them and now Milan and Sasha are back in Miami with their mother.

The FC Barcelona legend will need to find to way to travel every month to Miami. That’s because Shakira currently has custody. Soon after his retirement came his ex-girlfriend’s major diss track saga. The retired defender and his family are still dealing with public criticism daily. Recently, in an interview, he generally spoke about life after his retirement from the game.

He said, “I mean, it’s a stage of my life that has passed. At the time, when you make the decision to leave, you make it and I’m very cold about it. Looking back is of little use to you. It went incredibly well, much better than I had expected, I feel very proud of what I have experienced, I don’t think I would have been able to do so well even if I had dreamed of it”, as compiled by Unitel and translated by DeepL.

Without a doubt, it was quite a monologue by the FC Barcelona legend. The question that arises is that was he always referring to his soccer career. Or were there glimpses of his personal life reflecting from those words too? Some weeks ago, Pique’s younger brother tied the knot and the retired defender had to unexpectedly make a choice between Milan and Sasha or Clara Chia Marti.

Pique was forced to take a call after Shakira denied his request

On June 24, Marc Pique tied the knot with his fiancé Maria Valls. Days prior to that, the soccer veteran had to drop Milan and Sasha back to Miami. But the paternal side wanted the kids to attend the family wedding. The Spaniard did try his luck as he reportedly asked Shakira for permission. But she reportedly denied it straight away. Simply because she didn’t want the kids to be with his girlfriend, which is also in their legal agreement.

At that point, Pique had a big choice to make between his children and his girlfriend. But the Spaniard decided to attend the wedding with Clara Chia Marti after dropping his kids back to Miami. Reportedly, another reason why the Colombian icon denied him is that Marc Pique and his fiancé also had a part to play in hiding Gerard Pique’s infidelity secret for months.
