Shakira enjoys romantic dinner with mystery man in Miami after saying she is not ready for a ‘formal relationship’ after ugly Gerard Pique split

Shakira was spotted having dinner with a mystery man in Miami this week, and confessed that she wasn’t ready for a “formal relationship.”

The 47-year-old pop star was spotted enjoying an intimate dinner with her male partner on a glamorous rooftop terrace with romantic views of the ocean and skyline.

Showing off her toned legs in a flattering high-cut outfit, the Hips Don’t Lie singer flashed her friend a charming smile.

He responded by leaning over the table toward her. The table was tucked away by the railing, giving the couple some privacy.

Her night out comes two years after she split from her great love, Spanish footballer Gerard Pique, who was rumoured to have been unfaithful.

Gerard and Shakira were together for 11 years and had two children: sons Milan, 11, and Sasha, 9. They split in 2022.

Gerard is said to have cheated on Shakira with his employee and current girlfriend, Clara Chia, 26.

When Shakira was asked about her dating life in June, she replied, “I don’t think about that. How much space do I have for a man now?”

“What can I tell you, I like men. That’s the problem. I shouldn’t like them with everything that’s happened to me, but imagine how much I like men that I still like them,” she said Rolling Stone.

Shakira has been in relationships with top actor Tom Cruise and Formula 1 racing champion Lewis Hamilton since her split from Gerard.

In March, Shakira was also spotted with Emily In Paris’ hunk Lucien Laviscount, 32, who starred in the sexy music video for her song Puntería.

A source told DailyMail.com in April that she and Lucien “are in a relationship, but not really in a relationship yet.”

However, Shakira told Rolling Stone that she is not interested in a relationship at this time, saying the well-being of her children is her top priority.

“I think my children need to be very prepared for that, and their emotional and psychological well-being is a priority,” the She Wolf filmmaker admitted.

But she seemed to suggest that she’s not opposed to a future affair. “Hey, I’m not opposed to having friends,” the mother of two told the outlet.

Shakira also stated that she has her ‘sexy back’.

“More swag. I got my swag back. And I got my sexy back,” she said.

It’s a remarkably positive turnaround from the pain Shakira endured two years ago, when she broke up with Gerard and became embroiled in a legal battle over tax evasion in Spain.

Her father, then 90 years old, had also suffered a terrible fall. He is now recovering after six operations.

The music icon then vulnerably described the sacrifices she made during her relationship with Gerard and how she’s found herself again since their split.

“When you end a relationship of many years, there are things about yourself that you feel like you’ve lost along the way,” she told the publication.

Shakira made Gerard and their children the top priority during their relationship, even moving to Barcelona for him because he played football for FC Barcelona.

Since her split from Gerard, Shakira has been romantically linked to A-list actor Tom Cruise and racing champion Lewis Hamilton, among others

But during her stay in Spain, Shakira noticed that certain things about her changed.

“I wore sweatpants in Barcelona!” she told the outlet. Referring to the shiny pants she wore, she added, “I mean, these are sweatpants, but they’re Amiri. In Barcelona, ​​I wore sweatpants from Gap, with my hair in a bun.”

Shakira has since moved to Miami with her children and is happy to report that her Caribbean accent is making a comeback.

“My accent! My Caribbean accent is back now that I’m out of Spain,” she exulted. “Now I’m hanging out with Barranquilleras from my kid’s school and I’m surrounded by Cubans, Puerto Ricans, Dominicans, Colombians. Yeah, my accent is back, thank God.”

In April, Shakira said she still believes in love and hopes to find a romance like her parents, who have been together for 50 years. The star described monogamy as a “utopia.”
