SHAKIRA and Spanish football star Gerard Piqué have unveiled the first picture of their second-born son Sasha Piqué Mebarak.

The latest addition to their family made his public debut in an adorable picture posted to the Unicef World Baby shower website, which is dedicated to helping poverty-stricken people around the world.
Presenting her adorable tot, Shakira wrote: "We'd like to introduce you to Sasha Piqué Mebarak - to meet him go to worldbabyshower.org."
The cute picture shows Sasha, which means 'Warrior' and 'Defendant of mankind' in Greek and Russian, with a full head of dark hair.
The photo on the Unicef website coincides with the couple's World Baby Shower initiative, which they launched in 2013, and encourages social media fans to purchase an “inspired gift” to help give babies around the world a healthy start to life.
Sasha was born in the Quiron Tenon Hospital in Barcelona last week
Commenting on the inspiration behind the campaign, Shakira said: Now that we are soon welcoming our second child we want to help other children around the world and also contribute to a long-lasting solution for getting children living in extreme poverty the supplies they need to survive.
"We also want other parents to feel compelled to do the same. With the explosion of social media, celebrities aren't the only ones who have platforms that can reach mass audiences, and we want this movement to keep going long after our baby shower has ended, so we want to invite them to host their own baby showers with Unicef as well."
The new snap comes a day after Shakira, 38, shared an intimate photo of Sasha's foot on Twitter.

She captioned the image: "I have Daddy's feet, it looks like I've been playing football my whole life."
The Columbian beauty welcomed Sasha into the world last week Thursday at the Quiron Tenon hospital in Barcelona.
The birth at the Quiron Tenon Hospital is thought to have been a pre-planned cesarean.
Shakira and Gerard – who have been together since 2010 – are already parents to 2-year-old Milan.
