Shakira took to TikTok in a cute white floral skirt with a green vest top, which showed off her figure.
Across the video she’d wrote: “Do some of yall never let your tummy breathe?? Resorting to pregnancy speculation is actually insane behaviour.”
In a mock voice, she said: “No, I am not pregnant, I just like eating sandwiches. Like, I actually don’t get it, like how are you saying I look pregnant?
She looked baffled and said: “I don’t understand.

She showed a video of herself from a side profile and said, “I’m not even breathing in either.”
She then took an exaggerated inhale and made her stomach even flatter – which it already was.
She added: “You’re all just weird, and you actually just give people complexes.
“Luckily, I don’t give a f*** about you lot, because I’m actually very aware that I’m a very healthy size 6.
“But imagine if I had a bad relationship with food, you’d be making someone ill, you know?”
Then some of the cruel followers called her out for saying she’s a size 6, and Shakira read one of the comments outloud.
“You’re a size 12,” she read, laughing, and then said: “In fact, I’m not even proving myself to you, you little turd.”
She was inundated with comments of support from loyal followers, with one writing: “You look stunninggg.”
“Shakira they jealous lol,” added another.
“Haters be hating don’t listen to them low lives,” agreed a third.
This isn’t the first time she’s been taunted online for her figure, she recently said she’s “had enough” of social media.
In a recent TikTok video with her boyfriend Harry Cooksley, 31, she opened up about the backlash she had faced lately.
During the live chat, someone asked her why she was being so “defensive”.
To which she replied: “Why would I not be defensive if someone is calling me pregnant when I’m categorically not pregnant?
“What are you talking about? That’s the weirdest thing I’ve ever heard.”
When another fan told Shakira to try and “ignore” the comments, she said: “I really do try, and you know what? Most of the time, I’m pretty good at it.
“But recently, it’s just been getting to me a little bit, and that is me being very transparent.
“I’m having a really rubbish time with social media at the minute, cos some of you are really f***ing nasty. But I’m trying my best.”
It’s fair to say that the couple didn’t have the smoothest ride in the Love Island villa.
Before finally getting together and then coming second on the show, the pair found themselves in a love triangle with Helena Ford, 29.
However, in the end, Harry put an end to his wandering eye, and locked things up with Shakira.
In February, the couple shared a huge milestone in their relationship, when they revealed they had moved in together.
Shakira posted a picture of Harry lifting her up as they hugged in their new home.
The smitten star captioned their happy news with: “New chapter,” with a pink love heart.
Shortly before they moved in together, Shakira was forced to hit back at trolls who had taken aim at her boyfriend.
Fans were shocked to see Harry ‘liking’ a cruel TikTok comment about his ex Helena, who at the time was appearing on Love Island All Stars.
After her man was slammed online, Shakira said: “Just in case you aren’t aware, reality TV isn’t a 24 hour livestream of what goes on in someone’s life…
“More often than not, it’s an hour-long episode clipped together of heavily-produced content. Even I watched back my own season and conversations don’t even make sense.
“They have to get a fifty minute conversation into thirty seconds, use your f***ing heads.”
She explained: “Remember, there’s people who are being told to do things or go and have conversations with people or create opportunities to make TV for you.
“It’s not real life, babe. If it was real life, think about some of the things you’ve said. Just think about your life being recorded and being scrutinised for every little thing you’ve ever said in your life.”
She continued: “If there is drama, you complain. If there isn’t drama, you complain. It’s reality TV.
“You didn’t even know I had relationships with some people on TV because you’ve never seen us speak because it was boring and it didn’t fit the narrative.”
