Imran Khan’s ex-wife, Avantika Malik, has been opening up about her past marriage with the actor. Imran and Avantika were together for several years before they parted ways. Imran and Avantika were in a relationship when the latter was only 19 years old, and the actor was around the same age. They had been together for several years and tied the knot in 2011; three years later, they welcomed their daughter, Imara Malik Khan.
In 2019, Imran and Avantika parted ways, and now the duo co-parents their daughter. In a recent interview, Avantika Malik looked back on the time when she and Imran decided to end their marriage. Appearing on Soha Ali Khan’s podcast, Avantika Malik said that she would never have been separated if Imran Khan hadn’t initiated it.
Imran Khan’s ex-wife, Avantika Malik reveals she would have never separated from the actor if he hadn’t initiated it
Avantika Malik said that Imran initially wanted to be apart for six months, and after that they mutually decided to opt for divorce. She said that when such things happen, it feels like the death of the future someone might have imagined. Avantika felt that it was the death of the most intimate relationship. Speaking more about the same, Imran Khan’s ex-wife, Avantika said:
“It was him actually. I would have never done it. Probably to my own detriment, but I would have never done it. It was his decision. When we initially separated, it is the death of the way you perceived your life would be, what you imagined your life would be, how it would play out. It’s probably the death of the most intimate relationship in your life at that point.”
In the same interview, Avantika Malik shared that there was no big reason for the divorce between her and Imran, but according to her, they were not fair to each other, after being together for a long time, since a young age. Avantika said that she went into that relationship at a very tender age, and back then she didn’t realize that being happy and content is someone’s own job, and they should never rely on others for the same.
According to Avantika, people often tend to set unrealistic expectations of others, and that’s what ends up damaging the relationship. Avantika and Imran worked hard in their marriage, and they tried to save it for a long time, even when they were on the brink of thinking whether they could do this anymore. Avantika could be quoted as saying:
“We gave it everything. Even when it was on the brink of, ‘Can we do this anymore?’ We were always like, ‘Let’s work harder’. I never became an independent young woman who was confident in her own abilities. I never became that. So I would tell the 19-year-old, ‘Hang on, there’s enough time for marriage and love and kids. First, get your shit together’.”
Avantika Malik earlier talked about being through clinical depression
This isn’t the first time Avantika has opened up about her painful divorce from Imran Khan. In an interview with Nayandeep Rakshit, Avantika shared how hard it was to walk away from that marriage, as she thought she would never be able to do things on her own. Avantika also mentioned that she had put pressure on herself to make her marriage work, and a reason behind the same was that her parents’ marriage didn’t work.
This was why she didn’t want her childhood reality to turn into her reality when she would be an adult. Avantika had been through the toughest phase as she was going through clinical depression, and she also revealed that she wanted to end her life. As of now, Avantika and Imran have moved on. While nothing is known about Avantika’s dating life, Imran is currently in a relationship with Lekha Washington.
