Gerard Pique and Shakira announced their split in June 2022 and several rumors regarding the infidelity of the former Barcelona soccer star started circulating. Among those rumors was a shocking one related to current Barcelona youngster Gavi. It was reported that Pique cheated on Shakira with Gavi’s mother.
Pique and Shakira are parents to two sons. They were happily together for over 10 years, however, they separated allegedly due to Pique’s actions. This led to almost a year of issues between the pair where they were at each other’s throats trying to bring each other down. Most of the bad blood subsided as soon as Shakira moved to Miami with her children.

Nevertheless, who did Pique allegedly cheat on Shakira with? Was it really Gavi’s mother? The straight answer is no. The story is just a rumor whose origins reportedly trace back to a Turkish journalist or a parody account on X.
The rumor began in early June 2022 and it spread like wildfire. At the time, Pique was still a Barcelona player and Gavi was his teammate. It must have been extremely awkward for the two teammates to train together with such stories coming out.
Gavi’s mother, who is two years younger than Shakira, made no statements regarding the matter. Neither did Pique or Gavi. The rumor was soon squashed when it was known who Pique allegedly cheated on Shakira with as he started dating that woman right after his separation from the Colombian pop star.

In August 2022, Pique was first spotted with Clara Chia Marti. The pair made their relationship ‘Instagram official’ in January 2023. However, between August and January, a lot of things took place between Pique and Shakira.
It was reported that Shakira was staying right next to Pique’s parents in Barcelona. She was allegedly a constant annoyance for her ex-family. There were rumors of physical violence among them as well.
Shakira released a song called “BZRP Music Session #53” where she dissed Pique and Clara. That song went on to become a record-breaker. She references Pique’s infidelity in a number of songs.
There were several matters related to their children as well. It was overall an extremely toxic time in the lives of Pique and Shakira and their families. However, the dust seems to have settled and they have moved on in their lives.
