Childhood sweethearts Imran Khan and Avantika Malik tied the knot in 2011. However, they parted ways in 2019 and now co-parent their daughter Imara Malik Khan.
Avantika, who is an advocate of mental health, earlier this afternoon, put out a post on holding on to hope, and revealed that the year 2019 (when the couple divorced), was a time that ‘broke her’. Along with the post, she wrote a long caption that read, “I met 2 friends after a loooonnnggg time (4-5yrs) this week. The last time they saw me in the flesh was 2019, the year I broke and unraveled… And then they saw me now. And they both had the same things to say… That they finally see me be authentic, the real me. And the joy they see that brings to my eyes, a glow to my face:…and I knew they were telling me the truth. But the best thing they said to me was that I was “living”……”
She added, “It got me thinking on how I got here and I know it’s because somehow shockingly I always chose hope. In the darkest, bleakest moments (and there were a few) to be able to remind myself that if all I do is work on putting out the love that is within me then the universe will generously reflect that back to me. What is within is without.
I came across this post by @rainbowsalt today and it just seemed like such a great reminder to always choose love over bitterness, courage over fear, faith over despair and above all “always hold onto HOPE” …
I’m proud of me! ( Learning to feel and say that more) #alwaysholdontohope“
Last year, Imran Khan got candid about his split from wife Avantika Malik, whom he’d been with since their teenage years. Imran revealed that while the separation was heart-wrenching, it was necessary as they’d started falling into unfixable patterns. Their daughter, Imara, remains their top priority.
During an interview on the We Are Yuvaa YouTube channel, Imran Khan opened up about dealing with the stigma around mental health and divorce. He confidently stated that he doesn’t feel any shame about it. Imran explained that the decision to divorce was made because he and Avantika weren’t helping each other become their best selves anymore.
The actor discussed how long-term relationships can sometimes lead to unhealthy patterns, which was the case with his marriage to Avantika. He admitted that their decision to separate was incredibly painful but necessary for both of them to grow stronger and healthier. He believes there’s nothing wrong with changing the status of a relationship if it helps both individuals thrive. Imran reflected on the traditional notion of two people binding themselves together for life, saying it only works if they’re genuinely happy and uplifting each other. Otherwise, he believes it’s essential to “change the contract.” He also praised his current partner, actor Lekha Washington, highlighting that they entered their relationship with a conscious intent to evolve, grow, and heal together.
Imran and Avantika share joint custody of their daughter, who spends time with both parents. Imran described himself as a ‘hands-on’ dad, actively involved in all aspects of his daughter’s life, and prefers to manage it without the assistance of nannies or other helpers
