Sehwag unfollowed his wife, Aarti, on Instagram. Aarti, who has 178k Instagram followers, turned her profile private after divorce news got public.
Former India opener Virender Sehwag and his wife, Aarti Ahlawat, are preparing to break their 20-year marriage. Sehwag and Aarti, childhood friends who married in 2004, have apparently been “living separately for several months, and that divorce is likely on the cards,” according to the story.
When Sehwag and Aarti curtailed their public and social media appearances, it became clear that they were drifting apart. Sehwag, who is normally open about his family, posted photos of his eldest son, Aryaveer, and his mother, Krishna, on social media during last year’s Diwali celebrations but made no mention of his wife, Aarti, or his younger son, Vedant. The lack of communication only intensified suspicions of a potential breakup.

Although Sehwag has not yet removed images of his wife, his most recent Instagram post with Aarti was in April 2023. Sehwag likewise did not make any public posts on his 20th wedding anniversary (April 22, 2024).
Virender Sehwag and Aarti Ahlawat’s love affair began in the 1980s, when they met through family connections: Sehwag’s cousin married Aarti’s aunt.When Sehwag was seven years old, Aarti was just five. As time passed, their bond grew stronger, and as they matured, Sehwag began to develop romantic feelings for Aarti. At 21, he proposed to her, and she agreed. Their love culminated in a lavish wedding on April 22, 2004, at the mansion of former Finance Minister Arun Jaitley.
Aarti, who was born on December 16, 1980, in New Delhi, lived a rather low-profile life. She attended Lady Irwin Secondary School and Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan before obtaining a diploma in Computer Science from Maitreyi College, Delhi University. Despite her low-key public appearance, she was a supportive girlfriend to Sehwag throughout his cricket career.
Virender Sehwag, who retired from international cricket in 2015, has taken on multiple roles since then, including being part of the Anti-Doping Appeal Panel of the National Anti-Doping Agency. However, recent indications suggest that the once-close bond between the couple might now be going through challenging times. However, neither Sehwag nor Aarti have announced their split, leaving the public to speculate about their personal lives.
