Gerard Pique makes feelings perfectly clear on Shakira split with "true to myself" claim

Gerard Pique has said he is “very happy” following the dramatic changes in his life which have included his split with Shakira and retirement from football.

The former Barcelona defender also insisted he's not concerned about his public image. The 36-year-old and his new girlfriend Clara Chia, 23, have been on the receiving end of his ex’s barbs in diss songs the Colombian beauty has released since their break-up last year.

Shakira laid into the new couple in a hit song with Argentinian DJ Bizarrap released earlier this year, comparing her to a Rolex and Clara Chia to a Casio in a series of withering put-downs. She performed the track on the Jimmy Fallon late-night show just over a week ago before talking about her break-up with Pique, raising eyebrows by revealing her two children with the retired footballer were in the studio audience.
