The Claim

The singer Shakira was admitted to the hospital after suffering from a panic attack following the spread of rumors about Gerard Piqué's love affair.

Emerging story

A number of media outlets and social media users reported that Shakira suffered from a panic attack and was hospitalized in Barcelona following reports of Piqué cheating on her.

Some of the publications of MENA based media outlets were allegedly based on a statement issued by the Spanish magazine “Hola.”

Misbar’s Analysis

Misbar's team investigated the claim and discovered it to be misleading. Shakira did not suffer from a panic attack and was not hospitalized.

The Truth About Shakira’s Admission to the Hospital

Shakira was in the hospital with her father, who had reportedly suffered from a bad fall, a week prior to the spread of news about her partner. 

Moreover, Misbar’s team found that “Hola” magazine did not publish any news about Shakira’s health crisis and admission to the hospital. However, the magazine reported that the couple was officially separated.

From her side, Shakira has broken the silence and denied the rumors about her hospital admission. The singer tweeted, confirming that she was in the hospital with her father, and she explained that the circulated photos date back to May 28.

Shakira and Piqué Are Officially Separated

According to several media agencies,  Shakira and her partner had officially announced their separation in a joint statement, asking their fans to respect their privacy for the well-being of their children. 

While some media outlets reported that Piqué had cheated on Shakira, and that is why they had not appeared together since last March, other sites denied the rumors.

Nevertheless, Shakira and Piqué did not mention the real reason behind their separation. Some social media sites revealed that Pique moved out of the family home in Barcelona three months ago.

Piqué and Shakira have been together for 12 years and have two children, Milan, 9 years old, and Sasha, 7 years old.
