At some point in the past, Antonela Roccuzzo and Shakira weren’t the best of friends. Several reports once suggested that Messi’s wife was close friends with Nuria Tomas. Tomas was Pique’s girlfriend just before he met the Waka–Waka singer. In the beginning, the Argentine soccer legend’s wife reportedly didn’t approve of their relationship.

But everything has seemingly gotten better with time. That’s because Roccuzzo has publicly supported the singer on various occasions. She has seemingly developed a soft corner for the singer after her breakup with the Pique. Keeping that aside, Messi will now move to Miami to continue his soccer career. That also means Roccuzzo and Shakira will have a grand reunion.
