A reminder to Indian women to not fall for these guys.
As per reports, both of them had been dating for a long time as speculations were rife when the Pakistan cricketer wished the Pakistan actress on her birthday last year. Shoaib Malik had written, “Happy Birthday Buddy,” while sharing a photo of them together on his Instagram page.
Notably, Shoaib Malik had married Indian Tennis icon Sania Mirza in Hyderabad, India in 2010 in a traditional Muslim ceremony. It was followed by a Walima ceremony in Sialkot, Pakistan. They had their first child, Izhaan in 2018.
While there have been reports of their separation for years, both Shoaib Malik and Sania Mirza had remained tight-lipped about their marital life. Back then, the reports of their separation had died down when Mirza and Malik celebrated their son’s birthday in Dubai last year.
However, speculations resurfaced recently when Sania Mirza just three days ago shared a cryptic post which sparked rumours of her divorce with Shoaib Malik.
Sania Mirza’s Instagram post read, “Marriage is hard. Divorce is hard. Choose your hard. Obesity is hard. Being fit is hard. Choose your hard. Being in debt is hard. Being financially disciplined is hard. Choose your hard. Communication is hard. Not communicating is hard. Choose your hard. Life will never be easy. It will always be hard. But we can choose our hard. Pick wisely.”
Meanwhile, on his part, Malik had updated his Instagram bio and removed the caption that once read, “Husband to a Superwoman @mirzasaniar.”
