The last months have not been positive for international artist Shakira. After her separation from former football player Gerard Pique, the Colombian artist moved to Miami with her two children to begin a new phase in her life. So her inner circle is essential for her, but problems accumulate for the singer in a time of constant fluctuations.
After her 92-year-old father underwent surgery in the summer of 2022 following a fall that caused blood clots in his brain, her mother now suffers from health problems. Nydia Ripoll, Shakira’s mother, was hospitalized last week at the age of 73.
Nydia Ripoll began feeling ill last Friday and went to her medical center to rule out major problems. Therefore, Shakira traveled to Barranquilla on her private plane to be next to her mother, who suffered from a blood clot in her leg.
Currently, Shakira’s mother is responding positively to medical treatments and is gradually recovering. This is not the first time that Nidia has been exposed to an unfortunate accident in recent months. In March of this year, she had to go to her medical center in Barcelona due to another clot in her leg. She recovered and was able to leave the hospital after a few days.
In a different context, Shakira is still immersed in her music career after releasing a series of songs in which she made several hints about her ex-husband.
