Gone are the days when Shakira and Gerard Pique were linked with the idea of love. Now, however, it stands for the drama-filled breakup between the international music icon and the Spanish soccer legend. Having first met in 2010, the couple seemed to have a match made in heaven as they were together for 11 years and had two sons, Milan and Sasha.

To many of their fans, they looked like a perfect family until the breakup shocker in June 2022. Although the drama between Shakira and Gerard Pique has been escalating ever since they announced their split, the highlight of this drama is Shakira’s relationship with Pique’s mother, Montserrat Bernabeu.

The relationship between Shakira and Pique’s mother

It is no secret that Shakira and Pique’s mother have not been on good terms since the beginning. Relations only became worse after the split as it became known that Bernabeu knew of Pique’s infidelity and had kept it from Shakira.

The bitterness between the two got a whole lot more evident in January this year. It was reported that Shakira had asked her two kids to no longer call Montserrat Bernabeu their grandmother. According to reports, Shakira had asked her children to stop calling Montserrat Bernabéu “ona,” as they had previously referred to her.

This obviously deeply hurt the Pique family’s matriarch. Pique’s mother even felt “sunk” and “very sad” by the situation.
