Shakira and Butler sparked romance rumours after they were spotted having dinner at the Novikov Restaurant & Bar in London earlier this week.

Dishing on their romance, the source said, “They have been out a few times, but things are very new and it’s too early to tell if there’s long-term potential there.”

The insider added that there their 13-year age difference “doesn’t bother” Shakira “whatsoever” whose former boyfriend was also 10 years younger than her.

“Jimmy makes Shakira smile, and she feels happy spending time with him,” the insider added.

Shakira and Pique’s kids, Sasha and Milan, are said to be longtime fans of Butler but he only met their mother not long ago.

The singer and Butler “have only known each other for a short while, and just recently started following each other on social media,” the insider shared.
