POP icon Shakira said she believed in "till death do us part" in a tell-all interview about her split from football ex Gerard Pique.<\/p>\n
The Colombian star, 46, said that it was once her "dream" to have a life-long relationship with the father of her two children.<\/p>\n

She revealed that since the turbulent breakdown of their relationship, she is still "battling her demons".<\/p>\n
Slamming her ex in talks about her upcoming music, she compared the split to being "thrown in the trash and surrounded by rats".<\/p>\n
And in a heartbreaking revelation, the star also admitted her struggles with being a single mum.<\/p>\n
The singer told Billboard that she is in "a reflective period" following the drama of their tumultuous split.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve gone through several stages: denial, anger, pain, frustration, anger again, pain again. Now I\u2019m in a survival stage," she explained.<\/p>\n
A fragile Shakira said that before she split from her ex, who was rumoured to have cheated, she "believed in till death do us part".<\/p>\n
"My priority was my home, my family. I believed in 'till death do us part.' I believed that dream, and I had that dream for myself, for my children."<\/p>\n
"It\u2019s what I wanted for myself and my children, but it didn\u2019t happen."<\/p>\n

A world where perhaps she lacked oxygen. <\/p>\n "But in the end, she returns to the sea because it\u2019s her destiny, just like I returned to Miami. <\/p>\n "This siren was first abducted and then, for love, is next to this man, captive and locked up in a way. Sacrificing her own well-being and what is natural for her for love. And then she ends up thrown in the trash and surrounded by rats."<\/p>\n Opening up about her life before the split, Shakira said that her career struggled during the family's ten years in Barcelona.<\/p>\n "I was dedicated to him. To the family, to him. It was very difficult for me to attend to my professional career while in Barcelona."<\/p>\n Now in Miami, the star said it is easier for her to travel to Los Angeles or elsewhere in the US, and have collaboraters come to her.<\/p>\n "I had to wait for agendas to coincide or for someone to deign to come. I couldn\u2019t leave my children and just go somewhere to make music outside my house."<\/p>\n "Right now, I have an idea and I can immediately collaborate with whomever I want to."<\/p>\n The pop icon said that now she is focusing her energy on quality time with her children, but struggles sometimes with being a single mum.<\/p>\n The pair have two boys together, Milan, 9, and Sasha, 7.<\/p>\n "Sometimes I think being a single mom and the rhythm of a pop star aren\u2019t compatible. I have to put my kids to bed, go to the recording studio; everything is uphill."<\/p>\n "It\u2019s constant juggling."<\/p>\n The couple\u00a0split last summer\u00a0as the\u00a0Spanish\u00a0World Cup winner\u00a0ditched her for\u00a0Clara Chia Marti, 23.<\/p>\n The famous pair were together for 11 years and\u00a0announced their split in June, before Shakira moved from Spain to Miami with her children.<\/p>\n The footie star has come under fire after it was reported that he cheated on the singer, and that she rumbled his alleged affair thanks to\u00a0a jar of strawberry jam.<\/p>\n Rumours swirled that Shakira returned home from a period of travelling to find a jar of\u00a0her\u00a0strawberry jam had been eaten.<\/p>\n It's been claimed that Pique follows a strict diet and would not have tucked into the jam – and neither would her children.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The She Wolf singer\u00a0is then said to have come to the conclusion that someone else – more specifically another woman – had been in her home, and her fridge.<\/p>\n Almost a year on it seems as though the footballer\u00a0has plans to wed his new beau Clara Chia and is set to announce their engagement, according to Spanish media.<\/p>\nTragedy as Sheffield United star dies at 27 after signing new deal<\/h3>\n
