Many cricketers of India are in discussion these days. First the names of Yuzvendra Chahal and Dhanashree came into the headlines. There was speculation in media reports that the two were separating and going for divorce. However, nothing like this has happened yet. After this, news of separation of Manish Pandey and his wife Ashrita Shetty also came to light. It was claimed in media reports that both of them have removed photos with each other from Instagram. Now India’s legendary cricketer Virender Sehwag is in the news. A report in Hindustan Times states that Sehwag and his wife Aarti may separate from each other after 20 years of marriage.
Sehwag and Aarti were married in 2004. The report claims that both have unfollowed each other on Instagram. This has led to speculations of a rift in their relationship. Quoting sources related to the family, Hindustan Times said that both of them have been living separately from each other for the last several months. Sehwag, known for his explosive batting style, and Aarti have two sons – Aryaveer and Vedant. Aryaveer was born in 2007 and Vedant was born in 2010. Not only this, reactions of fans are also coming in after this report. Fans say that during Diwali celebrations, Sehwag shared photos with his sons and his mother on social media, but did not show any mention or picture of Aarti. This silence further fueled the rumours.
Their love story started in the early 2000s. In 2004, both of them got married at the residence of former Finance Minister Arun Jaitley. This couple is considered one of the strongest and cutest couples in cricket. Sehwag has also been balancing his family life with his cricketing commitments. However, Hindustan Times sources claim that their relationship is no longer the same.
Sehwag retired from international cricket in 2015 and has served in various roles since then. This also includes serving as a member of the Anti-Doping Appeal Panel of the National Anti-Doping Agency. He has also played the role of coach in IPL. His name was also linked many times to become the coach of the Indian team, but Sehwag denied these speculations every time. He said that he does not want to take this responsibility right now, but he does not know about the future. However, neither Sehwag nor Aarti have made any announcement yet.
