Ups and downs in relationships are a part of celebrity couples' life as much as it is a part of any common man’s life. Moreover, being a popular personality, it becomes difficult for them to deal with such issues in their personal lives.

In many instances, a few celebrities have accused or have been accused of cheating on their partners with another person. Here’s a list of TV actresses/celebs who have accused their husband/boyfriend of cheating on them:

During her conversation with Azma Fallah, Mandana talked about her marriage and separation with Gaurav. Mandana said, “We were dating each other for two and a half years and then got engaged. We were engaged for 7-8 months and then got married, which was a court marriage. We lived together for eight months, and then it was just not good. We were then separated for four years. We got divorced recently in 2021. He pretended as though I didn't even exist. In these four years of separation, he slept with whoever I knew.”

Earlier, during their separation too, Nisha Rawal had accused Karan Mehra of having an extramarital affair. In an interview with BT, she said, “I learnt about him being involved with another woman around a couple of months ago. I saw his text messages to the girl, I saw them for myself. Even after that, I sat him down and told him to talk about it. I have not behaved like a woman who will rip a man into pieces. I asked him if he didn’t want to continue then no problem.”

She also claimed that he cheated on her with a spa worker. “I had a spa in Lokhandwala with my partners. He was also involved in it. There was this assistant manager, he appointed.

Meanwhile, Ali Merchant also admitted to cheating on her and said that he regretted it a lot.

In an interview with BT, Priyanka accused Anshul of cheating on her. I didn’t believe people when they told me about Anshul and was foolish in love. He is a toxic person and caused a lot of negativity in my life. After breaking up, I feel happy and liberated. I want to come out of this as a happy and strong person." Anshul on the other hand said, "I don’t like to discuss my personal life, but if Priyanka is accusing me of cheating on her, then it’s wrong. One should say these things with validation and not just to put the other person down. If we came as far as six years together, I am sure there must have been more mental happiness than emotional exhaustion. The irony is she hasn’t even spoken to me about this. We shouldn’t make assumptions.”
