Shakira posted on her website Wednesday that she and 25-year-old boyfriend Gerard Pique “are very happy awaiting the arrival of our first baby.” Pique, who is from Barcelona, is a soccer player for FC Barcelona. The 35-year old singer stated:
As some of you may know, Gerard and I are very happy awaiting the arrival of our first baby! At this time we have decided to give priority to this unique moment in our lives and postpone all the promotional activities planned over the next few days.
This means I will not be able to be a part of the iHeartRadio Music Festival, but Iām sure this weekend in Las Vegas will be spectacular and I will be closely following everything that happens there!
Iād like to thank Clear Channel and my fans for their constant love and understanding.
Big kiss!
And will see you very soon!
