While the whole world talks about the scandalous divorce of the singer Shakira and the soccer player Gerard Piqué, the athlete has given a new reason for gossip. Over the weekend, photographers caught Piqué embracing Russian supermodel Irina Shayk. The model and the former Barcelona player met at a basketball game between the Chicago Bulls and the Detroit Pistons. The match, which was followed by many fans in the stands, including many stars, took place in Paris on the night of January 20.
In the paparazzi images, Piqué, 35, dressed in a Nike sweatshirt, hugs Irina, 37. The Russian beauty arrived at the match wearing a black turtleneck and black flared pants. The photos of Irina and Gerard were published by the American edition of Page Six.
Irina dedicated the day before the basketball game to her beauty. On social networks, the model shared with her fans a spicy selfie taken in a hotel room in Paris. Shayk starred topless near the mirror with a cosmetic mask on her face. Of the clothes at that time, she only wore black pants, in which she later appeared at the match.

Apparently, Irina attached great importance to this match and wanted to look especially stunning, so she undertook cosmetic procedures. And the photo without clothes suggests that the model was in a rather playful mood, could it be because she knew what she would find in Piqué’s stadium?
By the way, this is not the first time that Shayk appears next to a celebrity, whose divorce is being discussed all over the planet. In June 2021, Western tabloids erupted with sensational news: Rapper Kanye West, who had just split from Kim Kardashian, was dating Irina. The paparazzi photographed the couple together on the French Riviera. The musician celebrated his birthday and rented a luxury hotel there for three days. Kanye bought the building outright so he could go on a date with Shayk. True, her relationship quickly faded away, and Irina herself prefers to say that there was nothing between her and the rapper.
The model also shared a snapshot in a black sweater and pants, which was later photographed hugging Piqué. Photo: social networks.
The break between Shakira and Gerard Piqué was known this summer. The footballer cheated on the singer with a young Spaniard. The singer was told about the betrayal … a jar of her favorite jam. Returning from the tour, the artist found that during the absence of the jam jar, it was half empty. Children do not eat jam, Piqué is on a sports diet. Who then destroyed the jam? It was then that Shakira realized that a homeowner had visited her house.
Shakira and Gerard have been dating since 2011. They met in the spring of 2010 when Piqué appeared in the music video for Waka Waka, the official song of the 2010 FIFA World Cup. At the beginning of their romance, many did not believe that the couple, whose age difference is 10 years, would last that long together and even give birth to two children. And yet they lived together for eight years.
