New Delhi. Former Pakistan captain Shoaib Malik recently got married for the third time, the news of which he shared on social media on Saturday. Her wedding pictures quickly became a trending topic, drawing attention to Sania Mirza’s personal life on various social media platforms. Amid speculations about the marital status of Shoaib and Sania, the Pakistani cricketer posted pictures from his wedding with actress Sania Javed, raising curiosity among fans to know whether Shoaib and Sania have divorced or not. Shoaib has got married for the second time without finalizing the divorce. In response to the spreading rumours, Sania Mirza’s team and family released a statement addressing the matter. The statement emphasized that Sania has always maintained privacy in her personal life but she felt the need to share that Shoaib and she had separated a few months ago. The statement congratulated Shoaib for his new journey.
“At this sensitive time in Sania’s life, we urge all fans and well-wishers to refrain from indulging in speculation and respect her privacy,” the statement said. The development comes after Sania Mirza’s father Imran Mirza had earlier called separation ‘open’, which refers to a Muslim woman’s right to initiate divorce unilaterally. Let us tell you that Shoaib Malik’s third marriage was with Indian tennis star Sania Mirza and before that, after his previous marriage with Ayesha Siddiqui. Shoaib and Sania got married in 2010 and after eight years of marriage, they became parents to a son named Izhaan Mirza Malik. However, the couple recently ended their 13-year-long marriage. Shoaib’s recent marriage is with Pakistani actress Sana Javed, with whom he has confirmed this news by sharing pictures on social media.
In 2022, there were reports of increasing distance between Shoaib and Sania. Pakistani media initially speculated about Shoaib’s alleged involvement with actress Ayesha Omar. However, both Shoaib and Ayesha dismissed the rumours. Following speculations, Shoaib changed his Instagram bio and later removed the information about him being Sania Mirza’s husband.
On Wednesday, Sania Mirza mysteriously posted on social media, “Marriage is difficult, divorce is difficult, choose your difficult one. Being overweight is hard, staying fit is hard, choose your tough one. Getting into debt is hard, staying financially disciplined is hard, choose your hard one. Talking to someone is hard, not talking is hard, choose your hard one. Life will never be easy. It will always be hard, but we can choose our hard.”
