Hardik-Natasa divorce statement
The couple issued a joint statement on Instagram and wrote that they tried their best and gave their all but believed that this is in their best interest. “After 4 years of being together, Natasa and I have decided to mutually part ways. We tried our best together and gave it our all, and we believe that this is in the best interest for the both of us. This was a tough decision for us to make, given the joy, mutual respect and companionship we enjoyed together and as we grew a family”.
The statement further stated that they will continue to co-parent their son Agastya “We are blessed with Agastya, who will continue to be at the centre of both our lives and we will co-parent to ensure that we give him everything that we can for his happiness. We sincerely request your support and understanding to give us the privacy during this difficult and sensitive time. Hardik/Natasa”.
Their dating rumours started in 2018 and then in an Instagram post in 2019, Natasa referred to Hardik as her ‘best friend’. They got engaged on January 1, 2020, and welcomed their son Agastya same year in July. The couple renewed their vows in Udaipur on February 14, 2023.
After Rohit’s retirement from T20I, Pandya was the frontrunner to lead Team India in the shortest format but the new head coach Gautam Gambhir and selectors appointed Suryakumar Yadav as the new captain of the T20Is. Hardik is currently in Sri Lanka to take part in the three-match T20I series but has been rested from the ODI series.
