Shakira 's mum is said to have been hospitalised "as a matter of urgency" after a blood clot in her leg was discovered. Nidia Ripoll was said to have initially suffered a stroke, but media in
Spain is saying sources close to the
Singer have spoke to
American Spanish-language TV broadcaster Telemundo and said the issue was related to deep vein thrombosis. It's claimed the condition has not affected her brain. There has been no comment by the Colombian songstress, 46, as of yet. Her dad, William Mubarak, is said to have been struggling with his health following an operation last year, which is said to have been linked to her decision to delay her move to Miami with her two children following her split with former footballer Gerard Pique .

Barcelona last year after a fall. Gerard Piqué says he's 'very happy' after splitting from Shakira and moving on Shakira with her mum and dad ( Image: Europa Press via Getty Images) The Hips Don't Lie singer was expected to leave the
Catalan capital for
Florida earlier this year with her sons Milan, ten, and Sasha, eight, after signing a child custody agreement with ex-Barcelona defender Pique. According to reports, doctors discovered Shakira’s mum’s health problem after she didn't feel well and requested medical assistance. Reports by Telemundo and Spanish press say the singer's mum was then admitted to hospital on Friday of last week as a matter of urgency. She is now said to be "out of danger" and is expected to return home in due course. The Mirror has contacted Shakira's representative for comment. The latest reports make it unclear as to whether Shakira will once again put back her plans to leave Spain. After postponing her January move, the songstress was expected to make the move when the current school year ends in June.

They signed the accord at a court in Barcelona in December. The agreement sees the former Spain
Football star spend holiday time with his children. The pair split last May after more than a decade together. In a joint statement regarding their children, they said: "We wish to communicate that we have signed an agreement that guarantees the welfare of our children and that will be ratified in court as part of a mere formal procedure. "Our sole objective is to provide them with the upmost security and protection, and we trust that their privacy will be respected. "We appreciate the interest shown and hope that the children can continue with their lives with the necessary privacy in a safe and calm environment." Follow the Mirror US News page on
