TONINO MEBARAK AND THE SUSPICIONS ABOUT GERARD PIQUÉ

And it is that during their separation, which the Colombian admitted was a complicated process, the singer had the support of figures such as Carlos Vives, Alejandro Sanz and her brother and confidante Tonino Mebarakwho played a key role in the separation.
Of all Shakira’s brothers, Tonino is the one who has remained closest to the artist, being the care of his father William Mebarak during his illness and uncovering Piqué’s alleged disloyalties.
According to several local media, the multifaceted brother was the first to suspect Gerd Piqué due to his constant disappearances and would have warned “Shak” to be vigilant, since the then footballer did not spend time at home with his partner and children.
The “snowball” that Tonino launched with his warning ended up dragging down the relationship between Gerard Piqué and Shakira, since the latter would have discovered that her brother was not lying, making the decision to separate permanently.
“Tonino’s dislike for Gerard Piqué is manifest, since he was the first to notice the nocturnal revelry and the parallel life that the player led, opening his sister’s eyes”, some sources indicated to “Informalia” from “El Economista” in July 2022.

Tonino Mebarak is the son of William Mebarak and Lucila Otero, the former partner of the Colombian’s father, so he is Shakira’s half-brother. It should be noted that from his first engagement, the patriarch had nine children, although the eldest, also named William, died in a car accident at age 19 and “Shak” composed “Dark glasses”.
Like his father, Tonino, who is currently 51 years old, was dedicated to watches, but it was due to the success of his sister that he ended up entering the music business, being Shakira’s representative and producer.
He currently lives in Miami (Florida), in addition to making constant trips to Barcelona and Colombia for business or simply meeting with his family.
