Shakira is breaking her silence about her split from Gerard Pique for the first time, calling the past few months the “darkest hour of my life.” The singer opened up for Elle magazine, where she admitted she was still trying “to process” the end of her 11 years of marriagewhich made news in June.

“This is really hard to talk about personally, especially as this is the first time I’ve ever addressed this situation in an interview,” she said. “I’ve remained quiet and just tried to process it all… especially because I’m still going through it, and because I’m in the public eye and because our separation is not like a regular separation. And so it’s been tough not only for me, but also for my kids.”
