Shakira ‘constructing a wall’ separating house from mother-in-law amid Gerard Pique split | Celebrity News | Showbiz & TV

It is not the first time Shakira has seemingly shaded Gerard in her music after making reference to a “necessary” split with an ex who is as “cold as Christmas” in her song Monotonía.

The song, meaning Monotony in English, starts with Shakira singing in Spanish: “It wasn’t your fault, nor was it mine. It was monotony’s fault. I never said anything but it hurt me. I knew this would happen.”

She then alludes to the relationship being over before it ended, singing: “It’s a necessary goodbye. What used to be incredible became routine.

“Your lips don’t taste of anything to me. Now it’s the complete opposite.”
