Shakira and Gerard Piqué, couple’s birthday: she is 45, he is 35

Qshe is forty-five, he is thirty-five. Two important milestones that Shakira And Gerard Piqué they celebrate the same day. Both the singer and the footballer are born on February 2nd. She in Colombia in 1977, he in Barcelona ten years later. But the 2/2 date for the couple has a magical flavor for another reason too: just that day, eleven years ago, Shakira and Piqué made their love official. Which actually had blossomed a few months earlier: in the summer of 2010, thanks to the Waka Waka, the anthem of the World Cup in South Africa. Shakira still remembers the first words of her that her future companion addressed to her: «she approached Me and said: I will win this world championship and then I will invite you to a romantic dinner. And so it was”. While the Barcelona defender admitted that the World Cup won by Spain changed his existence: “I won the most important title and I met the love of my life. When I returned from South Africa I was a new man ».

Since they’ve been together, however, several times according to gossip Shakira and Piqué have been on the verge of breaking up. The two – parents of two children, Milan, 8, and Sasha, 6 – have never bothered to comment on the rumors. Silence reigns over their private lifebut when they show themselves together they seem happy.

Shakira and Gerard Piqué have different stories behind them. But to unite them there is (also) the commitment that each of the two has put – since childhood – into their work. Born in Barranquilla, Colombia, she knew what she wanted from an early age. She only had eight years when he composed his first songentitled Las gafas oscuras (The dark glasses), dedicated to his father, writer and jeweler. Always accompanied by her parents, that little girl with long braids participated in numerous television and radio programs. Her big break came when – she was just 13 – the doors of the Sony record company opened for her. She has since sold more than 60 million albums worldwide and won 14 Grammy Awards.

The Barcelona player instead comes fromCatalan high bourgeoisie: father Joan is a well-known successful lawyer and entrepreneur, mother Montserrat runs a hospital center. Becoming a footballer was his dream since he was a child: he was 10 when he entered the Barcelona youth team. Today the blaugrana team is the flag, as well as being considered one of the strongest defenders in the world. And it is also a entrepreneur “Fierce” (as the Iberian media define it) who has invested heavily in tennis.

Shakira and Gerard Piqué are a successful couple. This is there for all to see. Silence reigns over their private life, apart from a very rare (and cryptic) statement from her: “We have never been a traditional couple“. Whatever their “recipe” as a couple, their story, despite the gossip that every two by three wants them on the verge of goodbye, goes on. And today they celebrate a triple milestone: her 45 years, his 35, and eleven years together since their love was made official. On the other hand, there is still no talk of a wedding. And maybe he will never talk. The reason was explained by Shakira herself, a couple of years ago, during a guest – paired with Piqué – at the CBS program. 60 Minutes: “The marriage scares me. I don’t want him to see me as his wife, but rather as his fiancée. It’s like the speech of the forbidden fruit… I prefer to keep him alert, to make him think that everything is possible depending on his behavior, ”explained Shakira. Her partner, who was watching her intently, reacted to her words with a smile.
