Due to the number of months that Shakira resided in Spain each year while she was with Piqué, Spanish officials now set their sights on scrutinizing her tax compliance. According to them, she committed tax fraud and owed millions in tax arrears, for which she was offered a settlement.
Shakira roundly refused the settlement offer and has since rejected the plea deal. Instead, to some fans’ delight, she has committed to taking the matter to trial and is adamant that she is innocent. However, this has now left her in an extremely precarious position.
