Where Does Shakira live?

Shakira owns properties all over the world. She has estates in Miami and Barcelona, as well as a private island in the Bahamas.

Shakira House Miami (Current)

Located on the celebrity-packed North Bay Road Drive in Miami Beach, Shakira’s waterfront property is truly spectacular. Shakira purchased the immaculate estate for $3.38 million in 2001. The 8,708 square feet of living space spans over two stories and sits on 0.5 acres of land nestled right on the edge of Miami’s Biscayne Bay. The amazing 20,726-square foot property comes with an additional 100 feet of water frontage. With privacy being of utmost importance, unwanted visitors are kept at bay with a sizable iron entry gate and tall hedges surrounding the land. Pictures of Shakira’s house show the true beauty of the property.

The inside features Venetian plastered walls and modern contemporary architecture with a minimalist design. Bright whites serve as the central color scheme all throughout the home, giving Shakira mansion Miami a fresh and clean aesthetic. The open floor plan leads to a spacious dining room and living room, while large windows offer plenty of natural light all through the home.

Originally constructed in 1951, Shakira has completely renovated the sensational sanctuary to ensure that it’s better than ever. Only the highest-quality materials have been used in the home’s redesign, including light wood floors imported from Spain and a grand front door imported from Europe. Shakira’s Colombian-Lebanese-heritage-inspired aspects of the home’s design, with bone inlaid pieces and handmade decorative mirrors that are sure to stand out.

Shakira also added on an extra three bedrooms, adding another 1,663 square feet of space…because space is something that was obviously lacking in this property. In all, the home boasts six bedrooms and seven and a half bathrooms. We’re talking about a whole lot of houses here, and we haven’t even mentioned the indoor dance studio and hookah lounge area in the entertainment wing yet! When it comes to amenities, there are plenty of them. Included in this property are a heated swimming pool, a home gym and an outdoor entertainment area with cabanas, just to name a few of the home’s simple luxuries. All of the pristine landscaping has been updated and the backyard has a private dock with private ocean access.

We’re not sure how anyone wouldn’t want to call this place home, but Shakira has been trying to unload this property for years. Dating back to 2013, Shakira first tried to rent it out for $45,000/month. She then listed it for $13.9 million in 2015. It was removed and relisted twice before going back on the market for $11.648 million in June 2018. It was one again removed from the market in May 2019.

As if everything about Shakira’s Florida house wasn’t perfect enough, the exclusive Miami neighborhood also boasts some famous neighbors including Jennifer Lopez, Matt Damon, Ricky Martin, and Michael Bay.

Shakira House Barcelona (Current)

When she’s not busy touring all over the world, Shakira considers Barcelona home. Her longtime partner is Spanish soccer player Gerard Piqué, who plays professionally for FC Barcelona, so it makes sense to have a home close to the city. Located just outside of Barcelona, Spain in a town called Esplugues de Llobregat, Shakira’s massive home is three-stories, with seven bedrooms, two kitchens, a gym, and a backyard with a cabana next to a gorgeous outdoor swimming pool. We’re not entirely sure what Shakira needs two kitchens for, but if you can afford two kitchens then why not go for it?

Although aerial photos of the property show that it is encased by large walls and a security gate, Shakira Barcelona house was burglarized in 2018. The star’s expensive watches and jewelry were stolen in the heist, and even though Spanish authorities deducted that it was “professional criminals” who broke in, Shakira will surely have to beef up her security to avoid any more future robberies.

Shakira House Bahamas

Being able to afford a multimillion-dollar mansion might sound cool and all, but you know you’ve finally reached the top when you can buy yourself an island. It might seem crazy, but that’s exactly what Shakira did! The singer pooled her money together with Pink Floyd’s Roger Waters and Spanish singing sensation Alejandro Sanz to purchase Bonds Cay, an island in the Bahamas.

The trio put down $15 million to secure the deal, giving them exclusive access to the island’s many alluring amenities. Purchased in 2011, this private piece of paradise consists of seven hundred acres and endless amounts of potential. Shakira’s private island was purchased with grand plans for luxury hotels, condos, and an 18-hole golf course that would create a haven for the rich and famous.

There’s also five white-sand beaches and three salt pond lakes to spend your time soaking up the sun. Shakira and her equally wealthy counterparts bought the enclave with the intention of further developing it into an artist’s retreat. But just because Shakira owns an island in the Bahamas doesn’t mean the living is always easy. She notably got entangled in a contentious court case involving the property, after her ex-boyfriend, Antonio de la Rúa, sued her for money he invested to develop real estate on the land.

Shakira and Husband

As we previously mentioned, Shakira has been in a long-term relationship with Spanish soccer star Gerard Piqué. Shakira and Piqué first met in 2010 on the set of her music video for Waka Waka (This Time for Africa), the official song of the 2010 FIFA World Cup. Although they have been together for what seems like an eternity by celebrity standards, Shakira and Piqué are not married, and they seemingly have no plans to tie the knot any time soon.

While Shakira has never been married (or divorced), she did go through a particularly nasty public split with her ex, Antonio de la Rúa. Shakira and Antonio, who is a lawyer and son of former Argentine President Fernando de la Rúa, split after an eleven-year relationship. Following their breakup, Antonio tried to sue Shakira for over $100 million he claimed she owed him for business investments. While not legally married, this was probably the closest thing to Shakira divorce we’ve seen from the star.

Does Shakira Have Kids?

If you’re wondering whether Shakira has any children, the answer is…yes! Shakira and Gerard Piqué share two sons together. Milan Piqué Mebarak was born on January 22, 2013 and Sasha Piqué Mebarak was born on January 29, 2015.
