Shakira and Gerard Piqué publicly announced their separation in June 2022, after their 11-year relationship. Shakira shared that discussing the details of their breakup was emotionally challenging, especially after finding out that Piqué was having an affair while her dad was in the ICU.

There were reports that their longtime nanny, Lili Melgar, informed Shakira about Piqué’s alleged affair. After his infidelity was exposed, Piqué reportedly lashed out at Melgar and fired her on the spot while Shakira was away working on her music.

Did Lili Melgar Expose Gerard Piqué’s Infidelity To Shakira And Was She Fired Because Of It?
According to various sources, Shakira’s former nanny, Lili Melgar, played a key role in letting the artist know about Gerard Piqué’s infidelity. Shakira’s suspicions about Piqué’s affair are confirmed by Melgar when Shakira finds out that somebody in their house was eating her favorite jam while she was away. This jam was reportedly disliked by Piqué. Local media outlets also reported that Melgar found other women’s clothes hidden in their house.

Page Six reported that Gerard Piqué’s other woman, Clara Chía Martí, had been living in their house while Shakira was away. In 2021, Martí reportedly appeared in Piqué’s Zoom background while Shakira was away on tour with their children. Shakira was devastated to learn that Piqué’s affair had been ongoing for a longer time than she thought it was.

“Shakira was away traveling with their children when he conducted the Zoom interview, but they were very much still together at that time. It’s devastating for her to learn that this affair had been going on for a lot longer than she imagined.”

Piqué’s representatives denied the cheating allegations against him and contended that Melgar was not paid compensation because she continued working for Shakira.
