Colombian pop star Shakira took her former partner Gerard Pique to court at Barcelona's City of Justice on Tuesday, October 6. She is seeking modifications to their existing visitation arrangement.
Shakira's representatives said the request does not aim to reduce Pique's time with their sons. The sons are Milan, 13, and Sasha, 11.
The request is meant to reduce transatlantic travel during shorter school breaks. Under the proposed arrangement, Pique would travel to Miami during shorter vacations instead of having the boys fly to Barcelona.
Her legal team said this plan preserves the children's school, social and family routines. The team said it also safeguards their emotional, physical and academic well-being.
The couple previously finalised a custody agreement in December 2022 following their split. That agreement enabled Shakira to relocate with the children to Miami in April 2023, while Pique remained in Barcelona.
