Popular Indian tennis star Sania Mirza caught the attention of her huge fan following when she opened up about ‘setting boundaries’ with her husband – former Pakistan captain Shoaib Malik amid rumors of a split.
Fans of the star couple are anxiously waiting for them to deny the divorce rumors and confirm their bond. However, since November 2022, Sania has been continuously posting cryptic notes that shed some light on her relationship with her spouse.
The cryptic message she posted on her Instagram story on Monday gave her fans a hint that something was amiss. Amid rumors of a split, which she neither confirmed nor denied, she appeared on her talk show. Their presence together cleared the air to an extent.
Apart from this, Sania Mirza gave a surprise birthday party for Shoaib Malik. This shows that they are still close and their relationship is still intact. Similarly, his message on Monday conveyed a similar message.
“Our boundaries are not other people’s decisions. They are just recognition of our own needs,” he said on his social media.
“Just because I set boundaries with someone doesn’t necessarily make their behavior wrong. Sometimes it just means that their behavior isn’t okay with me.”
Her Pakistani husband had earlier refused to discuss their alleged separation from Sania. He said, “It is his personal matter” and neither he nor Sania would ever discuss it publicly.
Despite appearing on his talk show The Mirza Malik Show, sources say that they are not close to each other, they are just fulfilling their professional obligations.
The two sports stars tied the knot in 2010. They have a son named Izahan who was born in 2018.
