Footballer Gerard Pique has gone public with his new girlfriend less that three months after his split from Shakira.
The high-profile couple announced the end of their 11-year marriage in June and Pique has now been spotted with his new other half Clara Chia Marti, a student who works for him.
The two were pictured kissing at the Summerfest Cerdanya festival in Catalonia at the weekend and the images, obtained by the Mirror, were captured by Spanish media outlet Socialite.
The report adds that a source close to pop superstar Shakira’s family claims she is "very angry at seeing the father of her children with his girlfriend in public".
The report claims the former couple had an alleged pact between the two in which they had agreed they would not appear in public with anyone else during the first year since the breakup.
Presenter Laura Roige narrated: “I am excited, it is evident that there is a relationship. I have seen a lot of love, it will hurt Shakira a lot, because this is a Gerard Pique that we have never seen. I have never seen him like this with the singer.”
Shakira and the Barcelona star met when Pique was on set for the video for Shakira's official 2010 World Cup single 'Waka Waka'. They started a relationship later that year and they share two children, sons Milan and Sasha.
Chia Marti, a 23-year-old PR student, works for Pique's sports and media investment group Kosmos and the pair have allegedly met while working on events together.
It's been reported they grew closer and have been dating for months but have been trying to keep it "quiet" due to Pique's recent break-up with the Latin singer.
A brief statement, released by the singer’s communication agency, confirmed Shakira's split from Pique in June: “We regret to confirm that we are parting ways. For the well-being of our children, who are our highest priority, we ask that you respect their privacy. Thank you for your understanding.”
Shakira hinted at disharmony between the pair in her recent hit 'Te Felicito' with Rauw Alejandro, with the 45-year-old singing: "To complete you I broke into pieces; I was warned, but I didn't listen; I realised that yours is false; it was the drop that overflowed the glass; Don't tell me you're sorry, that sounds sincere, but I know you well and I know you're lying."
Mirror Football has contacted Shakira's representatives for comment.
