Claims that Piqué, 35, had left his family’s house in Barcelona and started living alone in the city gave rise to rumors about the breakup of his and Shakira’s relationship. The rumors have been circulating in the Spanish media in recent days.
Piqué and his friends, who allegedly included women, are said to have stayed out partying till the early hours of the morning in order to fulfill their hefty partying habits, as stated in the claims.
The Spanish Government Has Accused Shakira Of Tax Evasion
In less than a week after the pair announced their split, Spanish court papers showed that Shakira was one step closer to going on trial in Spain for tax fraud after a Barcelona judge rejected the singer’s appeal.
She has been accused by Spanish authorities of cheating the country’s tax authority of 14.5 million euros ($15.5 million) in earnings from 2012 through 2014.
When her connection with Piqué became public in 2011, she is said to have relocated to Spain, yet she continued to file her taxes in the Bahamas until 2015.
Shakira’s attorney has claimed that she just made the transfer to Spain full-time in 2015 and that her “behavior on tax matters has always been faultless in all the nations she had to pay taxes.”
