To celebrate their joint birthdays we’ve taken a walk down memory lane to relive their dazzling love story.
Power Couple
When Shakira and Piqué met, the Colombian singer was already one of the world’s most famous Latin music stars. Meanwhile, he was equally recognizeable as one of the most successful soccer stars in his country. That's why it made sense when the power pair came together at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. That same year, cupid’s arrow struck, and ever since, their followers have witnessed their love evolve.
Written in the Stars
When Gerard saw Shakira during the filming of her video at the sports event, he didn’t think twice about approaching her. He confidentally let her know that he would win the World Cup and that he could see her once more at the final match, and then he would ask her out for dinner. And it call came to fruition! Spain was the world champion and the couple nabbed their first date - it was meant to be! One of their first photos together was during the Colombian singer’s concert in which it was confirmed they were a romantic pair.
