Ahead of their fifth wedding anniversary in February, the couple announced today (January 22), they will become parents soon.

Making the special announcement

Shoaib said, “We didn’t want to lie to anyone and hence we didn’t shoot any vlog. Many of you had guessed it. Yes, Dipika is three months pregnant. It’s the beginning of a new life. It’s a new phase. We had thought of announcing it earlier but taking advice from the doctors and elders, we decided to wait for three months.”

Sharing a picture facing their backs, Shoaib and Dipika are seen wearing caps that read, ‘Mom-to-be’ and ‘dad-to-be’. Both of them are dressed in white outfits. Their post read, “Sharing this news with you all with our hearts full of gratitude, happiness, excitement and also nervousness. Humari life ka ye Sabse khoobsurat phase hai…Yessss We are Expecting Our First Child!! Going to Embrace Parenthood Soon #alhamdulillah.

Dipika calls it a ‘beautiful phase of their life’

Shoaib shared that they finally announced on social media as all the tests are fine. Dipika shared, “It’s a very beautiful phase of life. There was excitement as well as we were scared. We didn’t want to hide from anyone and so we thought of taking a break from all our vlogs. The first three months are very delicate and crucial and hence we took precautions.”

Dipika suffered a miscarriage last year

The couple had been trying to get pregnant. Shoaib revealed, “Many of you don’t know that last year in February, she suffered a miscarriage in the 6th week of pregnancy.” Dipika added, “Because of that we were a bit scared this time and I am sure all of you would understand that. It’s not just us, many go through this.” Shoaib shared that while people had started commenting about her getting fat, Dipika’s health had deteriorated because of the miscarriage.

How Dipika announced it to Shoaib

Shoaib said, “I was shooting in Chandivali. Dipika called me and said she is sending a photo. So she sent a photo of the test and I told her to stay calm. Because we had been through it.” Dipika shared, “We were happy but so scared that even to celebrate that moment there was a bit of hesitation. I had a strong feeling that it would happen this time. We were very careful this time.” Shoaib shared that he had advised her not to inform his mother because she had taken it to heart. “We told Ammi after 15-20 days,” said Shoaib.

The reason to buy a new car

Shoaib and Dipika recently bought a new car and the reason was for her health. Shoaib said, “The doctor had advised Dipika complete bed rest. The doctor told her to step out only in extreme emergency and the car should be at minimum speed and less jerking. That’s the reason we changed our car and got a high-end one.”

How they revealed the news to the family

Dipika shared, “Ammi kind of felt it. Obviously, she is a mother. I am always very energetic. But for a few days I was low on energy. Everybody doubted. But neither could they ask us nor were we confirming. One day Shoaib was just about to tell Ammi and she reacted, ‘No don’t tell us now’. Everyone was scared and it was natural. But with everyone’s blessings, we are doing fine.”

9/9

Their married life

Dipika and Shoaib met and fell in love on the sets of Sasural Simar Ka. The couple tied the knot in 2018 and just ahead of their 5th anniversary on February 22, they announced their pregnancy. Dipika had converted to Islam and in an exclusive conversation with ETimes TV, she had shared long back, “I am very happy and proud that I have done it for myself and my happiness. My family was with me in this decision and my intentions were not to hurt anyone. This is my decision.”
