So, where is Shakira from?

Shakira is from Burnley in Lancashire, but her mum Sukina has revealed that her ethnicity is half Pakistani and half English.

On TikTok, she wrote: “I can confirm that both myself and my husband are both half Pakistani half English. As a result Shakira is exactly the same ethnic equation too.”

In another comment, she revealed that Shakira doesn’t follow a faith, adding: “She respects all faiths and admires those who are devoted to their faith but chooses not to follow a faith.”

The Islander has two very different jobs

Shakira has a corporate job in marketing, but she also dresses up as Disney princesses for kids’ parties at the weekends too. She just gives off ultimate girlboss vibes.

Shakira comes from a huge family

In an old TikTok video, the 22-year-old once revealed that she has a massive family and is one of six children. Her parents got together when they were just 17 and have been married for 23 years.

Her mum Sukina and sister Layla went on Aftersun and people couldn’t believe how alike they all look. They must have good genes.
