Overview
- Shakira turned 49 on February 2, and Alejandro Sanz marked the day on Instagram with a photo and the message, “Bailar la vida, contigo, siempre… mi planeta favorito… feliz cumple amiga.”
- The post quickly drew attention and revived speculation about a romantic link, even as both artists have repeatedly said their bond is not a romance.
- Their public closeness has been shaped by high-profile collaborations and onstage chemistry dating back to La Tortura (2005) and Te lo agradezco, pero no (2006).
- Both are currently described as single, with Shakira following her split from Gerard Piqué and Sanz after ending his relationship with actress Candela Márquez.
- A recent documentary moment in Cuando nadie me ve, where Shakira said her children thought Sanz’s then-partner resembled her, has been cited by outlets as another data point in the narrative.
