The former Barcelona star has seemingly accused his ex of misrepresenting the facts about their break-up.

In a rare and fiery interview, former Barcelona star Gerard Pique has accused his ex and Colombian pop queen Shakira, of being misleading about their high-profile break-up. 

Over two years after their dramatic split, Pique, 37, finally opened up about the controversy, addressing the rumours surrounding their relationship and his new romance with 25-year-old Clara Chia Marti.

Pique, who now seems content in his new relationship, emphasized that much of the narrative surrounding his separation from the 47-year-old Colombian star wasn't entirely accurate.
