CELEBRITY Relationships
While the end of a romantic relationship doesn't have to be a messy and nasty experience, there are always some things we don't like about the other person. They're exes for a reason, right? Many celebs have have gone public on how they feel about their exes, either in interviews, songs, or through social media.
Shakira has been pretty clear how she feels about her ex Gerard Piqué after he allegedly cheated on her after being together for 11 years and sharing two kids. The former soccer player recently shared his thoughts on the criticism he's received since his split from the Colombian singer during an interview with Gerard Romero. “In the beginning, it was bad and it reached a point where if I had let things get to me, I would have thrown myself off a cliff,” he confessed in his native Spanish, reported by Page Six, adding that his nonchalant attitude saved his mental health as it prevented him from caring about others' opinions.
“For example, my ex is Latin American … you can’t imagine [the comments] I’ve gotten on social media from her fans. Millions of barbarities!” he told Romero. “But I don’t care about any of it. Honestly, not at all because I don’t know them. These people have no lives and why should I care? I’ll never meet them, they’re robots, you know?” He added, "They want you to worry and when you do, they would have won. You have to show them that you don’t care because it gets them angrier."
Many were quick to call Piqué, who is Spanish, out for xenophobia after he implied that Latin Americans are "barbarians" for criticizing him, and for specifically mentioning Latin Americans at all since Shakira has fans from all over the world. Even the Shakira herself responded, tweeting that she was “proud to be Latin American” along with dozens of Latin American flag emojis.
