Shakira is beginning a new stage in Miami, United States, with her children. The Colombian singer left the city of Barcelona on April 2, saying goodbye to a beautiful family stage that had a terrible and controversial end: the infidelity and separation of Gerard Piqué.

The artist would have liked to leave Barcelona earlier, as she had been preparing her residency in Miami for a long time and wanted to focus on her professional career, but due to her father’s health problems and Gerard Piqué’s reluctance to grant her the custody to take the children, Shakira could not leave until these Easter holidays.

Upon her arrival in America, the Hips don’t Lie singer dedicated an Instagram post to the media and the paparazzi, as she wants to start a new stage in which her children do not suffer harassment from the press and the weight of media pressure.

”My children, Milan and Sasha have lived through a very difficult year, suffering an incessant siege and relentless persecution by paparazzi and various media in Barcelona. I beg you to refrain from following them to the exit or entrance of the school or from following them to their extra-curricular activities, as has happened every day in Barcelona in order to obtain photographic captures or better ratings”, the artist requested please.

While the family gets used to their new life in the United States, the moving work continues at the family home in Barcelona. The company in charge of carrying it out is already finishing emptying the mansion, since the singer had left everything ready and most of the goods were stored in boxes.

A few days ago, one element of the house drew attention above all others, quickly going viral: a tree from the garden of the house where Piqué and Shakira lived for many happy years. In the video that spread like wildfire on social networks, you can see how a machine rips it out of the garden supposedly to take it to Miami with the singer-songwriter. According to the newspaper El Mundo, this tree would have been planted by Shakira five years ago in the forest of Ceros de Dios in Lebanon, the land of her paternal grandmother, so it would be very special for her.

Despite all the fantasy that has surrounded the plant these days, Europa Press has uncovered the truth. The video that is being broadcast on social networks was recorded last November, specifically on the 8th, so it has nothing to do with the move.

In addition, it is not known if it would have an important meaning for the singer of Monotonía or not, but what is certain is that she has not taken it to America because it ended up in the “garbage”. The reason why they withdrew it was neither more nor less than for health, since it was rotten.
