Shakira and Drake fueled speculation of a romance when they discreetly left the same after-party in West Hollywood, California, in the early hours of Sunday morning. According to an eyewitness report to DailyMail.com, the 46-year-old superstar and 36-year-old Canadian rapper departed “within minutes of one another at 3:25 a.m.”
Although they were not photographed together, Shakira, who recently split from her long-term partner Gerard Pique after an 11-year relationship, looked radiant in a plunging orange tank top and form-fitting jeans. She completed her effortlessly chic ensemble with platform grey heels, a white purse, and her trademark honey-blonde waves.
Meanwhile, Drake showcased his distinctive style in a cobalt blue jacket over a white t-shirt and distressed jeans. As he left, the five-time Grammy winner was spotted carrying a glass of wine.
This sighting comes shortly after reports surfaced of Shakira’s close relationship with British race car driver Lewis Hamilton, suggesting they are more than friends following a private trip to Ibiza. Reports from a Catalan newspaper implied they were moving their relationship forward, but journalist Jodi Martin clarified that they maintain a “beautiful friendship.”
Regarding Drake, who shares a son with Sophie Brussaux, he recently discussed his future plans for marriage on a podcast, expressing interest in marrying a non-celebrity in the future due to his demanding career.
