Shakira, Pique Return to Court over Children Visit Arrangements
Her lawyers say the change would keep Milan and Sasha in their routines and limit transatlantic flights during short school holidays.
- On June 10, 2026, singer Shakira asked a court to limit frequent transatlantic trips for her sons, Milan and Sasha, between Miami and Barcelona, arguing the travel disrupts their emotional, physical, and academic wellbeing.
- Following their June 2022 separation, Shakira and former footballer Gerard Piqué established a formal custody agreement allowing the singer to relocate with Milan and Sasha to Miami while Piqué maintains regular monthly visitation.
- Shakira's legal team proposed Piqué travel to Miami during shorter school holidays to maintain the children's academic routines; the request does not reduce his overall visitation time, representatives said.
- Currently in Madrid for her "Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran" world tour, the "Hips Don't Lie" singer is balancing professional commitments with 13 concerts scheduled through October 12.
- Maintaining consistent routines in Miami remains the primary goal for Milan and Sasha, born in 2013 and 2015, as the legal team seeks to modify the previous travel-heavy visitation schedule.

Shakira and Gerard Piqué Return to Court: Singer Wants Their Sons to Make Fewer Trips to Spain
Shakira and Gerard Piqué returned to a Barcelona courtroom Tuesday, October 6, nearly four years after reaching the agreement that allowed their sons to move to Miami. The Colombian singer is asking for changes to their visitation arrangements so that Piqué travels to Florida during short school vacations instead of Milan and Sasha flying to Spain for brief stays with their father.
The singer asked the judge to review the custody agreement signed in 2022 to prevent Milan and Sasha from making continuous transatlantic trips.
Shakira and her former partner, former Spanish footballer Gerard Pique, presented themselves to the Barcelona court on Tuesday to discuss a change in the terms of their two sons' rights of visit, which were established after their separation in 2022, announced the Colombian star's lawyers' team.
The Colombian singer goes through a new chapter of her family life while continuing her successful career in Spain, where she expanded her concert residence in Madrid.
Shakira clarified that her intention is not to reduce the time her children share with her father.
