Shakira and Gerard Piqué they are one of the strongest couples in the world, not just in football, but in entertainment in general.
The singer and defender of Barcelona has a bond of more than ten years, from which two children were born. However, the famous couple never married.
Shakira and Piqué met in the recording of the video for “Waka Waka”, the theme of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa and although at that time they did not connect, it was thanks to the clip who began their love affair.
“For me, it was very shocking. I had to dance,” Gerard Piqué said in an interview with 60 Minutes, to which Shakira replied, “Well, that’s not dancing.”
“No. No. I had to … I had to do something, something, a little movement. Yes.” – “You did a little bit of that, of the waka,” Shakira replied.

But that one-second cameo was enough to get Shakira’s attention.
“I wasn’t a football fan, so I didn’t know who he was. But when I saw the video, I thought, ‘Hmm. That’s a little brave.’ And then someone decided to introduce us.”
Journalist Bill Whitaker later asked the couple why they are not married, and Shakira replied that she is afraid of marriage.
“To tell you the truth, marriage scares me. I don’t want him to see me as his wife. I’d rather you saw me as his girlfriend. “Gerard Piqué added:” The bride. “
“Exactly. Your lover, your girlfriend. Like a forbidden fruit, you know? I want to stay alert. I want you to think everything is possible depending on the behavior.”
