Shakira and Gerard Pique have announced their split after 11 years, and fans are already beginning to ship Shakira with someone new.
After the singer followed a certain Superman actor on Instagram, Twitter went into meltdown sharing tweets about the two celebrities. However, Henry Cavill is already taken.
Let’s take a look into the rumours…
Shakira and Gerard Pique announce split
Shakira and her ex-partner Gerard Pique announced their split this month. They were together for 11 years, and share two children together: nine-year-old Milan, and seven-year-old Sasha.
Pique is a 35-year-old football player for FC Barcelona, who has also represented Spain at a national level 102 times. He retired from the national team following the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
The couple announced their split in a joint statement via their PR agency. They said:
“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.”
Shakira follows Henry Cavill on Instagram
Following Shakira’s split from Pique, it has been reported that the 45-year-old singer has followed Henry Cavill and Chris Evans on Instagram.
While this sparked rumours on Twitter, at the time of writing Cavill has not followed Shakira back.
One person tweeted: “Shakira following Henry Cavill and Chris Evans in this past 48 hour time span is peak feminism.”
Another said: “So Shakira following Henry Cavill & Chris Evans on IG makes sense now..go ahead girl!”
Cavill already has a girlfriend…
While fans may be shipping Shakira with Henry Cavill, the actor already has a girlfriend. Cavill’s girlfriend is Natalie Viscuso, a Hollywood executive.
Although they keep their relationship relatively private, Cavill has shared several pictures of the couple on his Instagram page. He posted one picture of the two of them playing chess in April 2021, which he captioned:
“This is me looking quietly confident shortly before my beautiful and brilliant love Natalie, destroys me at chess.”
Viscuso is a former Legendary Entertainment executive and is set to oversee television as Vice President of TV at Roy Lee’s Vertigo Entertainment. She posted the news on Instagram and said:
“Genre storytelling has been the beating heart of who I am ever since I was a child. I feel incredibly fortunate to be able to translate that passion into a career, and to have done so with some of the best in the business.”
