Former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag and his wife Aarti Ahlawat are reportedly heading towards a divorce after two decades of marriage, according to several media reports. The couple, who tied the knot in 2004, is said to have been living separately for several months, although no official statement has been made by either party.
Fans have noticed that the couple has also unfollowed each other on Instagram, which has further fueled the speculation. Aarti, who was Sehwag's childhood friend, has not appeared in any of the cricketer's recent social media posts, raising more questions about the state of their relationship.
Sehwag and Aarti's love story dates back to their childhood, and after five years of dating, the couple got married in 2004. They have two sons, Aryavir and Vedant, who have been spotted with Sehwag in various family moments over the years. However, in recent months, Aarti's absence from his social media posts has sparked divorce rumors.
This news comes shortly after similar divorce speculations surrounded cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal and his wife Dhanashree Verma, making this the second high-profile cricketer couple to face media reports about their marriage in recent times.
