'There has been something more than friendship'
Recently, reports indicated that Shakira and Hamilton were progressing in their relationship, per Daily Mail. Journalist Jodi Martin offered some insight, describing their relationship as a "beautiful friendship" in an attempt to clarify their status.
She said, "I would like to deny any information that has come out in a Catalan newspaper, where they say that Hamilton is tired of Shakira's attitude."
"I can categorically deny this information because I have spoken to Shakira's entourage and they confirm that between Shakira and Hamilton, there has always been a beautiful friendship. And that, between them there has been something more than friendship. The two knew very clearly that there was nothing serious and that there was total freedom between them to do whatever they wanted," she added.
According to Spanish TV channel Telecinco, the Colombian star and Hamilton were seen getting cozy at various events, and they allegedly had three secret meetings at Shakira's Ibiza villa.
