Fans used to consider Gerard Pique and Shakira as one of the most iconic celebrity couples of all time. However, to everyone’s shock, that ‘perfect’ relationship came to an end in 2022. Fans were aghast after hearing about the famous couple’s breakup. The news later surfaced that the breakup was a result of Pique’s infidelity. Shakira’s fans have now become quite dismissive when it comes to anything surrounding Gerard Pique. However, there was one question bothering every fan after their split.

Many wondered about what would happen to their properties and different assets.

Here’s how the iconic couple divided their joint assets:

After the messy breakup in 2022, Pique moved out of his own home and found a new space to live in. The Barcelona soccer veteran is currently enjoying life after retiring from soccer. However, the celebrity couple still possesses a few assets together. One benefit of the relationship was that Shakira and Pique weren’t married. That made it easier for the court to decide on the monetary divide, if any.

Their lawyers initially hinted that only dividing or sharing the joint assets and properties might be a problem. However, Marca claims that the celebrity couple didn’t take too long to reach an agreement on the same. There were mainly two properties in doubt. In 2012, the celebrity duo purchased a property in Esplugues de Llobregat for about €4.5 million.

Apart from the joint properties, Shakira also owns a mansion of her own. Her mansion in Miami is worth about €13 million. She was reportedly planning to move there sometime during early 2023.

She’s looking to move to her mansion in Miami, where her side of the family already lives. However, the Colombian star wasn’t in the mood to move quietly. About three weeks ago, the Latin American artist released a diss track that shook the music industry. Since then, the fans have not let go of any opportunity to humiliate Pique in public. The Spanish soccer star will be looking to move on from the saga as soon as possible and start his life with his new girlfriend, Clara Chia Marti.
