SHAKIRA is reportedly set to bare all in a bombshell documentary about her ugly split from former Barcelona footballer Gerard Pique.
Once one of the world’s most glamorous couples in showbiz, Shakira, 46, and Pique, 36, are perhaps now better known for their bitter post-breakup feud then they were for their relationship.

The Colombian pop star has released a number of diss songs taking aim at her ex since their shock split in June 2022.
One in January with Argentinian DJ Bizarrap appeared to reference Pique’s new relationship with 24-year-old student Clara Chia Marti and claimed he traded a Ferrari for a Twingo and a Rolex for a Casio.
Pique responded to the track by showing up to work in an £8,000 Renault Twingo and boasting of a sponsorship deal with Casio; he added the cheaper watch would “last a lifetime”.
In a strange turn of events, Shakira then put a terrifying life-size witch doll on her balcony, facing her mother-in-law’s house in the same street, and blasted the song on repeat, neighbours said.
Rumours of Pique allegedly cheating on the singer have long swirled, with Shakira reportedly learning of her ex’s infidelity upon finding an empty jam jar in their fridge.
Neither Pique nor their children, Milian and Sasha, like strawberry jam and Shakira had only just returned from a trip, it was reported, leaving the star to conclude someone else had stayed in their home.
Of the documentary supposedly in the works, Shakira expert and Spanish journalist Laura Fa said: “I think it will be about the drama she’s gone through and it will be called: ‘The cheating and me’.
“It will be the Bizarrap song in documentary form.”
Many speculated Shakira could be filming something new when a cameraman travelled with her to court on Monday for her trial in Barcelona where she faced allegations of tax fraud.
She was also reportedly seen flanked by two cameramen wearing “Film Crew” bibs as she left Barcelona’s El Prat yesterday to fly home to Miami.
Pictures snapped of Shakira in the Barcelona Airport showed her smiling, looking glam with a bright lip, a red hat, and dark sunglasses.
Another Shakira expert and journalist Lorena Vasquez said: “It’s clear Shakira is recording graphic material for an audiovisual project, a documentary or a documentary-style reality.
“It seems nowadays like if you’re a famous person and you haven’t got your own documentary-style reality, you’re nobody.”
The famous singer avoided a lengthy trial and up to eight years’ prison on Monday by admitting six counts of tax fraud and agreeing to pay a £7million fine in a last-minute plea bargain deal.
It was alleged Shakira defrauded Spanish tax officials of £12.7million.
She has previously claimed she paid the full amount the Spanish authorities said she owed before they filed charges, which came to nearly £15million with interest.
The pop star said on Monday: “While I was determined to defend my innocence in a trial that my lawyers were confident would have ruled in my favour, I have made the decision to finally resolve this matter with the best interest of my kids at heart who do not want to see their mom sacrifice her personal well-being in this fight.
“I need to move past the stress and emotional toll of the last several years and focus on the things I love – my kids and all the opportunities to come in my career, including my upcoming world tour and my new album, both of which I am extremely excited about.
“I admire tremendously those who have fought these injustices to the end, but for me, today, winning is getting my time back for my kids and my career.”
Shakira and Pique, who were together 11 years before their split, signed a child custody agreement last December following a marathon 12 hours of negotiations.
The pop star moved to Miami with their sons in April.
