Shakira breaks silence on separation from Gerard Piqué, calls it 'incredibly difficult'

Shakira described her breakup from Gerard Piqué as "incredibly difficult" in her first comments since the couple of 11 years parted ways. "It's hard to talk about it, especially because I'm still going through it...and because our separation is not like a regular separation," she stated. Shakira said she has tried to conceal the situation in front of her children.
