Shakira has revealed she was attacked by wild boars at a park in Barcelona.
The singer, who was with her eight-year-old son Milan at the time, took to her Instagram Stories to open up about the terrifying incident.
The 44-year-old showed her torn handbag, and said: “Look at how two wild boar which attacked me in the park have left my bag. They were taking my bag to the woods with my mobile phone in it. They’ve destroyed everything.”

The She Wolf star, who appeared to have escaped the attack unharmed, then said to her son: “Milan, tell the truth. Say how your mummy stood up to the wild boar.”
Shakira lives in the Spanish city with her footballer husband Gerard Piqué, who plays for Barcelona, and their two children.
The attack is the latest of numerous incidents related to wild boars in Barcelona in recent years, with the animals often seen in Collserola, a part of the city that is popular with celebrities.

According to the BBC, 1,187 phone calls were made to Spanish police about the wild hogs in 2016, with the animals attacking dogs and holding up traffic in the city.
In 2013, a police officer in Barcelona attempted to resist an incoming attack by shooting a boar, but missed the animal and shot his partner instead.
