Shakira's life never fails to capture the spotlight. Following a historic start to the year with a massive concert in Mexico City's Zocalo and a Rock & Roll Hall of Fame nomination, the Colombian superstar is making waves again – this time, it's all about romance.
Social media is buzzing with fresh evidence and snapshots that hint at a blossoming romance between Shakira and British actor Lucien Laviscount. Although whispers of their connection surfaced before, 2026 has breathed new life into these rumors.
“Fans are thrilled at the prospect of Shakira finding happiness with Lucien,” says a source close to the star.
The chemistry between Shakira and Lucien is not a new development. Their connection dates back to 2024 during the filming of the 'Punteria' music video, a collaboration with Cardi B. In the video, Laviscount played Shakira's romantic interest, and their sizzling on-screen chemistry quickly became the talk of the town.
Following the video's release, the duo was seen dining together in New York City, fueling gossip columns. Yet, at the time, it was brushed off as a clever marketing move for Shakira's album 'Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran'.
Lucien Laviscount, born on June 9, 1992, in Burnley, England, is no stranger to the spotlight. The 33-year-old actor began as a model at just 10 years old, eventually landing roles in British series like 'Coronation Street'.
His big break came with his role as Alfie in Netflix's hit series 'Emily in Paris', where he charmed audiences worldwide. With nearly 3 million Instagram followers, Lucien stands out as a style icon and one of the most desirable actors of his generation.
As the 2026 World Cup approaches, rumors have flared up once more, spurred by new images and comments online. While many photos are from their 2024 outings, persistent sources and shared social circles keep the speculation alive.
Neither Shakira nor Lucien have spoken publicly about the rumors. Shakira remains focused on her world tour and upcoming historic concert at the Pyramids of Giza.
Fans are split in their opinions. Some cheer on Shakira's new chapter with a young, talented partner, while others caution that it might just be a strong professional bond.
Regardless of their true relationship status, the pairing of Latin pop royalty and a Netflix heartthrob is undeniably the talk of 2026.
