Shakira, Pique back in court over children’s visitation as singer seeks to limit transatlantic travel

Shakira and Gerard Pique attended a Barcelona court to discuss changes in visitation arrangements for their children to reduce travel between the US and Spain.

Shakira wants fewer trips for their children to improve their emotional, physical, and academic wellbeing, proposing Pique visits Miami during shorter holidays instead.

The couple separated in 2022 after over a decade together, with Shakira moving to Miami; Pique still regularly sees their children during holidays and monthly periods.

BARCELONA, Oct 7 — Pop star Shakira and her former partner, retired Spanish footballer Gerard Pique, appeared at a Barcelona court yesterday to review visitation arrangements for their two children, with the singer seeking changes to limit their travel between the US and Spain.

The Colombian singer has asked for fewer short transatlantic trips by their sons between Miami, where they live with her, and Barcelona, where Pique lives, according to a statement from her legal team.

She argues that frequent travel could affect their emotional, physical and academic wellbeing, her representatives said.

Under her proposal, Pique would travel to Miami during shorter school holidays, allowing the children to spend more time in their home environment and maintain their routines.

The request is not intended to reduce the amount of time the children spend with their father, they added.

Shakira, 49, and Pique, 39, began their relationship in 2011 and have two boys, Milan, born in 2013, and Sasha, born in 2015.

The couple, who lived mainly in Barcelona during their relationship, announced their separation in June 2022 after more than a decade together.

They reached an agreement over custody and visitation arrangements several months later, after which the Hips Don’t Lie singer moved to Miami with the kids.

Pique, who played for Barcelona and Spain before retiring from professional football in 2022, has regular periods with his sons each month as well as during school holidays.

Shakira is currently in Madrid for the final leg of a global tour, with 13 concerts scheduled between September 18 and October 12. She added an extra date on Monday.

She began her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran world tour in February 2025, taking its name from her album of the same title.

The album includes Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 53 , her global hit collaboration with Argentine producer Bizarrap, which referenced her split from Pique. — AFP

夏奇拉和杰拉德·皮克前往巴塞罗那法院，讨论如何改变他们孩子的探视安排，以减少往返美国和西班牙的次数。

夏奇拉希望减少孩子们的旅行次数，以改善他们的情感、身体和学业健康，并建议皮克在较短的假期里去迈阿密游玩。

这对夫妇在共同生活十多年后于 2022 年分居，夏奇拉搬到了迈阿密；皮克仍然会在假期和每月的某些时候定期与他们的孩子见面。

巴塞罗那，10 月 7 日——流行歌星夏奇拉和她的前伴侣、退役西班牙足球运动员杰拉德·皮克昨天出现在巴塞罗那一家法院，审查他们两个孩子的探视安排，这位歌手寻求改变，以限制他们在美国和西班牙之间的旅行。

据哥伦比亚歌手的法律团队发表的声明称，这位歌手要求减少她和儿子们往返于迈阿密（他们与她同住）和巴塞罗那（皮克居住的地方）之间的短途跨大西洋旅行。

她的代表表示，她认为频繁旅行可能会影响他们的情绪、身体和学业健康。

根据她的提议，皮克将在较短的学校假期前往迈阿密，让孩子们有更多的时间待在家里，保持日常作息。

他们补充说，这项请求并非意在减少孩子们与父亲相处的时间。

49岁的夏奇拉和39岁的皮克于2011年开始交往，育有两个儿子，分别是2013年出生的米兰和2015年出生的萨沙。

这对夫妇在恋爱期间主要居住在巴塞罗那，在相恋十多年后，于 2022 年 6 月宣布分居。

几个月后，双方就监护权和探视安排达成协议，之后这位《Hips Don't Lie》的歌手带着孩子们搬到了迈阿密。

皮克曾效力于巴塞罗那和西班牙国家队，于 2022 年从职业足球界退役。他每个月都会定期与儿子们相处，学校放假期间也会陪伴他们。

夏奇拉目前正在马德里进行全球巡回演唱会的最后一站，从9月18日至10月12日共安排了13场演唱会。周一，她又加演了一场。

她于 2025 年 2 月开始了她的 Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran 世界巡回演唱会，演唱会名称取自她的同名专辑。

这张专辑收录了《Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 53》，这是她与阿根廷制作人Bizarrap合作的全球热门单曲，歌词中提到了她与Pique的分手。——法新社
