Following her relationship with Gerard Piqué, Shakira may have found love once again in the world of sports. According to reports on Univision's show El Gordo y La Flaca, the 49-year-old Colombian superstar is "thrilled" with Serge Ibaka, the 37-year-old former NBA player standing over two meters tall.
According to the same source, the pair have been secretly seeing each other for several months. Initial rumors emerged via a source close to the singer, who revealed she was dating a former elite athlete without disclosing his identity. The former basketball star reportedly attended several of the singer's concerts during her residency in Madrid.
Confirmation of Ibaka's identity came later when journalist Jordi Martín was in Paris and received a tip from a music industry insider with access to Shakira's inner circle. The source confirmed the romance after speaking with the artist's best friend. According to the journalist, the two spent time together in Madrid and also crossed paths at Paris Fashion Week.
Serge Ibaka spent the bulk of his career in the NBA, famously winning the championship in 2019 with the Toronto Raptors.
