A happily-married mommy blogger confesses to sleeping apart from her husband. Can of worms opened or world’s best-kept couple’s secret?

Stuti, Varun, Aarna and Yuvraaj Agarwal
@mombae.blogger Stuti Agarwal’s recent Insta post saw 1,067 comments after she admitted that husband Varun and she have slept apart for four years. She put it down to couples making choices that suit them and needing space even after marriage. The reactions ranged from “Thank God, someone came up with this topic, and now I feel so relaxed” to “That’s why men can easily get away with cheating on their wives”. One said, “My husband started sleeping apart despite my pleas. Now, I don’t even remember I have a husband. This can backfire if it’s not a mutual agreement.”
For the Parel residents, though, it has worked well since 2019 when they had their second child, daughter Aarna, who had got into the habit of rolling off the bed. Stuti would be up tending to her, leading to son Yuvraaj, 4, and Varun staying up too. “We would all be collectively awake. Mornings were a mess, because Varun works in finance and had to be up at 6 am, and I wanted to sleep in. Instead of moving every night into another room, with chargers, clothes, water bottles in tow, I shifted in with my daughter; my husband sleeps with my son.”
