Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has faced ongoing divorce rumors, despite being married to Abhishek Bachchan for over 17 years. Speculation about their separation intensified when she appeared solo on the red carpet in July this year. Further fueling the rumors, Abhishek and Aishwarya arrived separately at Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s high-profile wedding in Mumbai on July 12. While Abhishek entered the event alongside Amitabh Bachchan, Jaya Bachchan, Shweta Bachchan, Navya Naveli Nanda, and Agastya Nanda, Aishwarya made her entrance later with their daughter Aaradhya.
Around the same period, Abhishek Bachchan caught attention by ‘liking’ an Instagram post that addressed the challenges of love, coinciding with the ongoing separation rumors. The post’s message, “When love stops being easy,” further fueled speculation about the state of his marriage with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.
Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai tied the knot in 2007 in a lavish yet private ceremony, attended primarily by close family. A few years after their marriage, they welcomed their daughter, Aaradhya, into their lives.
