Shakira’s appearance at the Billboard Latin Women in Music event comes after she started a “new chapter” in her personal life. The “Whenever, Wherever” crooner recently moved to Miami from Barcelona, Spain with her two sons, Milan, 10, and Sasha, 8, after splitting from their dad, Gerard Pique last year. The move reportedly happened after the parents signed a “custody agreement” after they spent eight years in Barcelona together during their romance.
The doting mom took to Instagram on Apr. 2 to share her thoughts about the big change. “I settled in Barcelona to give my children a stability, the same we are now looking for in another corner of the world next to family, friends and the sea,” she wrote alongside a scenery photo. “Today we start a new chapter in the pursuit of their happiness. Thank you to everyone who surfed alongside me so many waves there in Barcelona, the city where I learned that friendship is certainly longer than love.”
“Thank you to everyone who has been there to cheer me up, dried my tears, inspired me and made me grow,” she continued. “Thanks to my Spanish audience who have always covered me with their love and loyalty. For you, just a see you later, and as my father said so many times, see you around the curves!” she signed off with a heart emoji.
