The journalist Jordi Martín, who has closely followed Shakira’s personal and professional life, recently reported that the singer’s health, William Mebarak Chadid, would have worsened alarmingly in the last hours.
“Shakira’s dad would have worsened. He is very delicate … the word they put in the message is: ‘eye that the dad is very delicate.’ The fat and the skinny.
The journalist added that the artist’s family environment is very distressed and that this situation coincides with the pause that Shakira has taken before resuming his tour of women no longer cry in May.
Although Shakira is going through a brilliant moment in her artistic career, with a successful international tour, her personal life is affected by her father’s delicate situation. For years, William Mebarak Chadid has faced various health problems.
In 2022, during a visit to Barcelona, Don William suffered a spectacular fall that caused a strong blow to the head, requiring emergency surgery. In 2023, he was hospitalized again by a hydrocephalus, which is why a hakim type valve was placed at the Serena del Mar Clinic in Cartagena.
In 2024, the singer shared that her father was urgently admitted to the Ibero -American Clinic of Barranquilla.
"18 days ago I arrived from Emergency to Barranquilla to accompany my father and fight with him. Yesterday, thanks to the great human and medical team (...) I could take him back home next to my mother, who never releases his hand," Shakira wrote in his social networks.
So far, neither Shakira nor other family members have issued official statements about this alleged relapse. The artist maintains a very close relationship with her parents, so her followers hope that he will soon travel to Colombia to accompany them and share an update on her father's health status.
