Colombian pop star Shakira is at the center of accusations that she cheated the Spanish government of €14.5 million in taxes while living in Barcelona between 2012 and 2014. She rejected a plea bargain, maintaining her innocence.
Barcelona has been the singer’s main residence for many years, as she lived in a luxurious mansion with her former partner Gerard Pique and their two sons, but this is not the only luxury home the singer owns.
Farm in Uruguay
Shakira previously shared a farm in the small fishing village of Faro José Ignacio in Uruguay with her former partner, lawyer Antonio de la Rua.
The 12-acre farm has seven bedrooms, a guest house, recording studio, movie theater and gym. When Shakira and Antonio broke up in 2010, there was a heated argument over the farm, which until recently was available for rent.
