The separation of Gerard Piqué and Shakira would face a new chapter after an alleged breach by the footballer of one of the premarital agreements. Although the negotiation of the custody of the children is still continuing, another new legal problem would have come to light.

"Shakira is very angry to see the father of her children with her girlfriend in public," says a confidant close to the Colombian family.

The negotiation for the custody of the minors would have been complicated because they have not been able to reach an amicable agreement as the singer hopes to settle in Miami (United States), a non-negotiable condition for the soccer player. The violation of the premarital clause would tip the balance in favor of the Colombian in a possible trial.
