Shakira fans have been waiting almost a decade for a new album … and her ex Gerard Piqué may be to blame — at least, according to Shakira herself that is.

The singer-songwriter sat down with the Sunday Times for an interview published Saturday … where she revealed she actually put her career on pause to support Gerard turning his playing days in Barcelona.

Shakira explained she made a lot of sacrifices in the name of love — one we know didn’t last — deciding to take care of the kids rather than focusing on her music.

Of course, Gerard and Shakira broke up during the summer of 2022, with rumors of infidelity swirling as the pair went their separate ways.

Shakira’s path has taken her out of Spain and down to Miami where she’s made fast friends with David Beckham — who she said she knew back before she started dating Gerard, when DB played for Barcelona’s rival, Real Madrid.

The Colombian star said she’s in constant contact with Victoria Beckham … and she’s hoping to take her son Milan to a soccer match down in Miami — leaving dear old dad totally out of the equation.

Shakira stayed above the whole Piqué fray during the interview BTW — though she did admit it seemed like cosmic justice that one of his old soccer rivals Sergio Ramos presented her with a Latin Grammy.

She also skipped over talking about her tax fraud case — instead choosing to focus on her first studio album in seven years, “Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran” which translates to “Women No Longer Cry” … bit of a wink and a nudge to a certain ex?

In any case, seems Shakira’s finally focused on herself again … and Gerard better be on the lookout for bitter fans who might’ve wanted an album a bit sooner.
