Shakira shares Milan and youngest son Sasha, seven, with her estranged husband Gerard Piqué – whom she split with in 2022.

The celebrity couple split in June 2022 after a 12-year romance, which came amid allegations of cheating.

Shakira (born Shakira Isabel Mebarak Ripoll) reportedly realized her ex had been unfaithful when she discovered a jar of strawberry jam had been eaten in her absence.

The Barranquilla, Columbia native then referenced the strawberry jam in a music video for her single Te Felicito back in April, which featured a clip of her collaborator Raw Alejandro’s head in an open refrigerator.

According to ToonNews TodaShakira knew that her former lover and their two sons Sasha and Milan, who turn eight on Sunday, didn’t like strawberry jam, so she found out someone else was staying at their house when she found the jar.

The GIRL LIKE ME star made the discovery of strawberry jam after coming home from a stint of travelling.

Residents in the area have reported hearing Shakira “the song at full volume” from her Spanish home, including lyrics aimed at his new girlfriend.

Shakira makes it crystal clear that she’s referring to the 23-year-old her ex-partner is now dating, saying, “I’m worth twice 22.” You traded a Ferrari for a Twingo. You traded in a Rolex for a Casio.”

While Shakira’s new song contains some barbed lyrics aimed at Gerard and his supposed new love interest Clara Chia Marti, she also includes a few choice words for her ex-mother-in-law.

In the song she sings the line: “You left my mother-in-law as my neighbor, with the press at the door and the debt in the treasury…”

It has been reported that the relationship between Shakira and Montserrat Bernabéu [Gerard’s mother] has turned sour after happily welcoming her son’s new romance.

Gerard seems to be brushing his wife off and went on an official Instagram with girlfriend Clara Chia last month.

The sportsman shared a photo in love with his new girl on social media, leaning close to her.
