Sania married former Pakistan cricketer Shoaib Malik in 2010. The couple announced the birth of their son, Izhaan, in 2018. However, that was before Splittswille happened!

Sania's sister, Anam Mirza, confirmed the former's divorce from Shoaib Malik earlier, saying they had been legally separated for 'some months'.

Taking to her personal handle on Instagram, Anam, who is married to former India skipper Mohammad Azharuddin's son Assaduddin, confirmed Sania's divorce from Shoaib, posting, "Sania has always kept her personal life away from the public eye. However, today the need has arisen for her to share that Shoaib and she have been divorced for a few months now. She wishes Shoaib well for his new journey ahead!"

The statement came after the former Pakistan all-rounder tied the knot with Pakistani actress Sana Javed. Sana became a household name in Pakistan with her exploits in the show-business space, Sana made her television debut in 2012 with 'Shehr-e-Zaat' and later on appeared in several other shows.
