Shakira and Lewis Hamilton seemed to be a couple of the moment worldwide. After they were spotted several times together, especially during Formula 1 weekends, several reports indicated that the British driver and the Colombian singer were ready to start a possible courtship.
However, now everything has changed after the US Weekly exclusive in which it is noted that Jimmy Butler and Shakira have been dating in recent days. “They’ve dated a few times, but it’s all very new stuff. It’s too early to tell if the relationship has long-term potential, but Jimmy makes her laugh, and she’s happy to spend time with him.”
Shakira’s New Boyfriend? Who Is Jimmy Butler?
Jimmy Butler is 33 years old and one of the most important basketball players worldwide. After being drafted in 2011 by the Chicago Bulls, the key moment came when he signed for the Miami Heat in 2019. From that moment on, Butler became a star leading his team to two NBA Finals, the most important league in the United States. Although he has not been able to win a championship, Butler is one of the best athletes on the court.
In addition, Jimmy Butler won the gold medal with the United States at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games and has been called six times to the NBA All-Star Game. One of the most beloved celebrities in the country today.
Just a few weeks ago, in something that did not seem to have a connection because of the situation with Lewis Hamilton, Shakira was present in the city of Miami to watch Jimmy Butler in the NBA Finals between the Heat and the Denver Nuggets. The Colombian was happy in the front row.
Shakira’s Current Situation
During the first days of April, after the incessant media pressure in Spain as a consequence of the separation from Gerard Piqué, Shakira decided to move to Miami with her children: Sasha and Milan. In an Instagram post, she admitted that it had been one of the most complicated decisions of her life.
“I settled in Barcelona to give my children stability, the same stability that we now seek in another corner of the world next to family, friends, and the sea. Today we begin a new chapter in the search for their happiness. Thanks to all those who surfed with me so many waves there in Barcelona, the city where I learned that friendship is undoubtedly longer than love.”
Two months after that painful move, Shakira left the past behind and returned to Barcelona as one of the most special guests for the Formula 1 event. “It’s always good to be back in Barcelona!” was the Colombian’s message on her social networks. For millions of Shakira’s followers, the message was a strong signal that she was back stronger than ever. It is worth noting that, precisely in that city, the last few months for the singer represented the sight of the player with his new partner, Clara Chia, in addition to the constant attacks by her ex-in-laws.
Therefore, the photograph of Shakira enjoying herself in the stands of the Montmeló circuit was encouraging for her fans. A few hours later, when a photograph was leaked at a dinner with Lewis Hamilton, rumors about a possible relationship were sparked again. However, now her new partner could be Jimmy Butler.
