Thursday evening, the Internet was buzzing with news that Shakira had
given birth to her son. And, for good reason: Her boyfriend Gerard
Pique tweeted about it!
The Spanish footballer wrote about the birth of their first child in
Spanish: "Ya ha nacido nuestro hijo! Estamos muy felices! Gracias a
todos por vuestros mensajes!" Translated: "Our son has been born! We
are very happy! Thanks to all for your messages."
Well, there's one slight issue: It was Día de los Santos Inocentes
(Day of Innocents), a holiday recognized in Spain and Mexico that's
sorta kinda likeApril Fool's Day. It's full of pranks and tomfoolery
to celebrate Mary and Joseph tricking King Herod by smuggling Jesus
out of Bethlehem before he could kill him.
So, it's believed that Pique decided to trick all of his 4. 7 million
Twitter followers into believing he'd become a dad, in honor of the
holiday. All in goodfun, right?
Shakira is actually supposed to give birth in mid-January. She was
most recently seen out on Christmas Day shopping for gifts in
Barcelona. While itis possible that she did actually give birth, her
own Twitter page has been silent since Monday and it's likelier that
she's hanging out enjoying her last month of pregnancy and getting
ready to usher in 2013.
