Julian Edelman Sparks Romance Rumors With Pop Star Shakira After Miami Birthday Bash In February
In early 2024, rumours began swirling about a potential romance between former Julian Edelman and pop star Shakira.
After the pairing of Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift, an NFL athlete and superstar singer, the Edelman and Shakira rumour has hit another bottom.
The speculations ignited following her 47th birthday party in Miami, where media spotted the athletes together.
On February 2, 2024, several media outlets captured Edelman at Shakira’s birthday party.
Reports from The Sun published a day later included a single piece of evidence featuring them together.
He was reportedly in a very ‘romantic’ mood with the Latin singer amid all the dating rumours swirling around.
Insider details from the people at the party stated that the two looked very close throughout the party.
Despite the rumours, neither of them has confirmed their relationship, still, they continue to keep their ties off the public domain.
Before the recent news, she was in a highly publicized 11-year-long relationship with football star Gerard Pique.
The former couple broke up in 2022 and since then she was single until the Edelman angle hit the internet.
Coincidently Edelman is the same age as Pique, which makes him more compatible with Shakira, despite all of her other dating links.
However, clicking photos and hanging out doesn’t mean they are together, yet the media are already exploring a connection.
So, the former NFL wide receiver doesn’t have a wife in 2024, but Shakira could be the next of his popular dates.
