2025 marked the triumphant return of Shakira to the stage with her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour, but it also brought back into the public conversation a name that defined a decade of her life: Antonio de la Rúa.
The singer and her ex-partner were seen at two different events in the United States, sparking speculation about a possible rapprochement after 15 years since their separation.
First encounter: Antonio de la Rúa backstage at Shakira's show
In early May, Shakira performed two consecutive shows at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles. It was on the second night when De la Rúa appeared backstage, moving confidently among the technical team and the artist's family members.
He wore a staff credential, making it clear that his presence was not that of a mere guest. Witnesses and photographs suggested a renewed closeness between the two, despite a past marked by a romantic breakup and a high-profile legal dispute.
That same day, De la Rúa's young children, from his relationship with DJ Daniela Ramos, arrived with the singer just minutes before the show began, a gesture that did not go unnoticed by the audience present.
Second moment: family night at a baseball game
Shakira made headlines again in recent hours, this time in San Diego, just days before her concert in Tijuana. She was seen in a box at Petco Park during an MLB game between the Padres and the Red Sox.
