Chris Martin’s Heartfelt Support Helped Shakira During Painful Split with Gerard Piqué

Shakira has revealed how Coldplay’s lead vocalist, Chris Martin, became a pillar of support for her during one of the most challenging times of her life—her separation from longtime partner Gerard Piqué.

In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, the Colombian singer shared how Martin reached out to her regularly when she was heartbroken and struggling. “He checked up on me every day, offering words of support, strength, and wisdom,” Shakira said. She described Martin as someone who views life differently, emphasizing his empathy and sensitivity toward others.

Reflecting on her split, Shakira admitted that the heartbreak was the “greatest suffering” she had ever experienced. “It felt like someone had stabbed a hole in my chest. It was such a real and physical sensation, I felt like people could see through me,” she revealed.

Shakira and Piqué ended their 11-year relationship in 2022 amid rumors of infidelity. The former couple shares two sons, Milan, 11, and Sasha, 9. The breakup quickly became a hot topic online, with fans and critics alike weighing in on the situation.

Despite the emotional toll, Shakira has found solace in her music and the unwavering support of friends like Chris Martin. Her candid revelation highlights the importance of empathy and kindness during tough times, even for global superstars.
