Ever since Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan arrived and posed separately at Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s wedding, there has been a spike in speculations around the couple’s marriage. It’s not the first time the duo has been rumoured for the alleged separation, but this time it’s a lot more fuel to the fire. Abhishek ‘liked’ a post on divorce which has left netizens baffled and guessing about his and Aishwarya’s marital status.
The post, a snippet of an article shared by a journalist read, “Divorce is never easy for anyone. Who doesn’t dream of a happily ever after or envision recreating those heartwarming videos of elderly couples holding hands as they cross the street? Yet, sometimes life doesn’t unfold as we hoped. But how do people cope when they separate after decades together, after spending a significant portion of their lives relying on each other for both big and small things? What drives them to sever ties, and what challenges do they face? This story delves into these questions. Coincidentally, ‘grey divorces’ or ‘silver splitters’—terms for those seeking marital dissolution typically after age 50—are on the rise globally. The reasons, though varied, are not surprising.”
