Shakira Mebarak, 45, and FC Barcelona defender Pique, 35, were
together since 2011 but never married. They met shortly before

video for Shakira's "Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)", the
tournament's official song.
They made public the end of their relationship in a June
statement.
The custody agreement was reached one week after Pique announced
his imminent retirement from professional football and departure
from FC Barcelona.
