Indian all-rounder Hardik Pandya announced his separation from his wife, Natasa Stankovic, on Thursday, after four years of marriage, confirming months of speculation about their breakup.
The star cricketer shared the news in an Instagram post, stating, “We tried our best together and gave it our all, and we believe this is in the best interest for 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.”
Pandya mentioned that he and Natasa will co-parent their son, Agastya, who will remain at the center of their lives. He emphasized their commitment to ensuring Agastya’s happiness and well-being as parents.
The India T20 vice-captain requested fans and followers for support and privacy during this difficult and sensitive time.
Hardik and Natasa married in 2020 after nearly a year of courtship and welcomed their son Agastya the same year. According to NDTV, the couple renewed their vows in Udaipur in 2023 with both a Christian ceremony and traditional Hindu rituals.
Speculation about their separation intensified when Natasa removed Pandya’s name from her Instagram profile. Additionally, the cricketer was seen attending the wedding festivities of Mukesh Ambani’s son, Anant Ambani, without his wife.
