Shakira’s Parents Announce That It’s a Boy

Latin singing sensation Shakira, former coach on The Voice, recently announced that she and her longtime love are expecting their second child together. Shakira and Gerard Pique have been together for many years, and they welcomed their first child, son Milan, 21 months ago. Now that the duo has made their second pregnancy public, their family also decided to make sure that everyone knows what they are having.

“Yes, another little boy. A playmate for Milan,” the singer’s parents announced to Hola! Magazine during an interview recently.  Shakira’s parents are very excited about the prospect of their daughter having a second little boy, and a playmate for their almost 2-year-old grandson. However, they’re not entirely sure what Shakira and her longtime love plan on naming baby boy number two. They either haven’t discussed it yet with her parents or they simply haven’t settled on their final decision.

Shakira, who is from Colombia, made the official announcement of her second pregnant on Facebook the last week of August, and the good news just keeps rolling in for the family. The singer has been very open about her views on parenting ever since her son was born in 2013. She admits loving her role as a mother but finding it a job that requires a lot of energy.

Shakira and Gerard Pique, who plays for FC Barcelona, have been together more than four years. The couple met on the set of one of her videos back in 2010 and have been together ever since. So far, there is no word as to whether or not the couple plans on tying the knot anytime soon, though speculation certainly will rise now that they are expecting their second child together. Here’s to keeping an eye on her baby bump and the possibility of a wedding in the coming months or year.
