According to reports, one of South Asia’s most loved couples has divorced after 12 years of marriage.

The divorce between the sports power couple has already been confirmed by Indian media.

According to new reports, the couple will make an official announcement of their divorce after legal complications are resolved.

Both Shoaib and Sania have remained silent about their divorce rumours until now, with reports claiming that the couple is not addressing the rumours due to contracts signed with various shows and legal complications, as Shoaib and Sania have several contracts to complete.

Their relationship has been strained several times before, according to sources, and they have decided to co-parent their son Izhaan Mirza-Malik.

Sania recently shared a post on social media that added fuel to her divorce rumours. “Where do broken hearts go?” she wrote in her post. “To seek Allah.”

Another intriguing detail that has emerged is that Sania recently relocated to a new house in Dubai. Previously, she shared a villa in Dubai’s Palm Jumeirah with Shoaib Malik.

Shoaib and Sania married in a highly contentious setting, with another woman accusing Shoaib of marrying her first.
