However, Shoaib has now come forward and given his side of the story. According to him, he did want to spend time with Sania on Eid, but their professional commitments did not allow them to be together.
“Khabre chal rahi hai, taluqat acche nahi hai (Rumours are floating around that all’s not well in the relationship). Nothing on it. On Eid I would like to say that had we been together it would have been great. But she has got commitments in IPL. She is doing shows in IPL. That is why we are not together. We share love like always. I miss her a lot, that I can say,” said Shoaib during his conversation with a Pakistani news channel.
“There are professional commitments. But Eid is a day when you miss the people who are close to you a lot. This is way neither I released a statement nor did she,” he added.
Earlier this year, rumours started circulating about trouble in Sania and Shoaib’s marriage. In addition to that, the cricketer was linked to model-turned-actress Ayesha Omar, and a viral photoshoot of the two only added fuel to the fire. But, Ayesha later addressed the rumours during an appearance on ‘The Shoaib Akhtar Show’ and vehemently denied any linkup with Shoaib. She clarified that she would never be attracted to a married or committed man.
