Bollywood celebs Malaika Arora Khan and Arbaaz Khan’s married life has been in the troubled waters since the past few months. Rumours were rife that Malaika had moved out of their Khan family home and was also seeking help from a divorce lawyer.

But divorce was not spelled in this statement of theirs. Arbaaz and Malaika’s statement further mentioned that the speculations about their relationship were disturbing their families and to put an end to any further maligning, celebs of the cinema world decided to break their silence.

While both these actors continued to avoid questions about their relationship in public life in the past, it was reported that Malaika was not happy with Arbaaz’s financial status. The fact that Arbaaz was living in his popular elder brother Salman Khan’s shadow was also pinching this celebrity wife of Bollywood.

It was also rumoured that the Khan family of Bollywood was not pleased with Malaika’s ways of working and dressing style. However, the joint statement coming right from the horse’s mouth has put an end to all the speculations, while the real reason behind their decision to separate remains unknown. Celebs and cinema world are equally surprised by this move.
