For the outing, Shakira, 49, wore a black tank top paired with blue jeans and black platform boots. She also carried a black leather jacket over her arm. Garcia-Rulfo, 45, opted for blue jeans with a black jacket layered over a T-shirt.

The sighting comes years after Shakira and Gerard Piqué ended their relationship in 2022. The pair, who were together for more than a decade, share two sons, Milan and Sasha. Following their separation, Shakira has been linked to names including Formula 1 driver Lewis Hamilton, NBA player Jimmy Butler, and actor Lucien Laviscount, although none of those rumors resulted in a confirmed relationship.
