“It’s hard to talk about it,” Shakira told the publication. “I’ve remained quiet and just tried to process it all.”
She detailed, “It’s hard to talk about it, especially because I’m still going through it because I’m in the public eye and because our separation is not like a regular separation. And so it’s been tough not only for me, but also for my kids. Incredibly difficult.”

Shakira also mentioned about paparazzi camping outside her house ’24/7′ after she broke the news of the split, hence, she and her kids were restricted to their home. “We can’t take a walk in the park like a regular family or go have an ice cream or do any activity without the paparazzi following us. So it’s hard.”
Shakira concluded on a cordial note saying, “Regardless of how things ended or how Gerard and I feel about each other as ex-partners, he is the father of my children.”

It is pertinent to mention that the Latin pop star, Shakira and star soccer player Gerard Pique announced their split in June this year with a joint statement via their PR agency. “We regret to confirm that we are separating. For the wellbeing of our children, who are our highest priority, we ask that you respect their privacy,” the statement noted.
