Following the divorce rumours surrounding Yuzvendra Chahal and his wife Dhanashree Verma, another cricketer has sparked separation rumours on social media.
Manish Pandey, who has played for India in 68 international matches, has also been the subject of similar rumours about his marriage to actress Ashrita Shetty. According to several reports, the couple have unfollowed each other on Instagram and thus raised several eyebrows that led fans to question the state of their relationship.
Manish Pandey married Ashrita Shetty in December 2019. Initially, the couple was often seen together at various events and would often post on social media. However, in recent times, they have seemingly withdrawn from public appearances, prompting concerns among their fans and followers. Reports indicate that Ashrita had already removed pictures featuring Pandey from her social media accounts as early as June 2024. Recently, Pandey also deleted all the photos he had with his wife from his Instagram profile.
The couple's silence on these rumours swirling online has only intensified speculation about trouble in their marriage. Fans are left wondering whether this is a sign of an impending separation. Their absence from public interaction and even social media has only added to the mystery regarding their relationship status. Manish Pandey, on the other hand, is facing tough times in cricket as well. Although he had lifted the IPL 2024 title for Kolkata Knight Riders last season, the player has not had things his way since then.
While Manish has not publicly addressed the divorce rumours, his fellow cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal was visibly distraught while discussing speculations over his marriage lately. According to his social media statement, these discussions have caused "immense pain" to both him and his family. Despite his lengthy statement in an attempt to clarify the situation, he noted: "I have noticed certain social media posts speculating on matters that may or may not be true," which did little to quell the ongoing speculation about his relationship with Dhanashree.
Dhanashree too had earlier put up a post on Instagram that read, "My silence is not a sign of weakness but of strength. While negativity spreads easily online, it takes courage and compassion to uplift others. I choose to focus on my truth and move forward, holding onto my values. The truth stands tall without the need for justification."
The recent news of high-profile divorces among Indian cricketers has certainly caught the attention of their fans. As these rumours unfold, fans are left anxiously awaiting any official word from either couple regarding these speculations.
