The drama between Shakira and Gerard Piqué has officially entered the next generation, and this time, it’s petty on a whole new level! In a recent viral moment that has the internet absolutely losing it, Shakira’s son showed that when it comes to picking sides in the ultimate celebrity breakup, he’s Team Mom all the way.
During an appearance, the young boy was put to the test to name the football World Cup champions throughout history. He confidently rattled off the winning countries one by one, showcasing an impressive knowledge of the sport. But just when it was time to name the winner of the iconic 2010 World Cup in South Africa, he conveniently suffered a total “memory blank.”
Fans immediately put two and two together. Why is 2010 so significant? Because that was the exact year Gerard Piqué won the World Cup with Spain! Even more ironically, 2010 was the very year Shakira and Piqué first met on the set of her “Waka Waka” music video, sparking their decade-long romance.
By completely erasing the 2010 victory from his mental list, netizens are convinced the youngster was taking a subtle, hilariously shady jab at his father. Ever since the messy, highly-publicized split between the pop superstar and the former Barcelona defender, the kids have been living with Shakira in Miami, and this latest stunt suggests they’ve fully inherited their mother’s talent for delivering poetic justice.
