Hardik Pandya Finally Speaks When Ricky Ponting Asked Him, ‘How’s Family?’ Amidst Divorce Rumors

Hardik Pandya has been a point of interest and a topic of discussion for several reasons for quite some time. After Hardik became the new skipper of Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024, the crowds were hostile towards him. Following that Hardik made headlines for the rumors of his divorce from his wife Natasa Stankovic and the internet was flooded with comments speculating their relationship status.

Rumors of his separation from his wife, Natasa Stankovic, caught the attention of the entire nation

It all started when Natasa removed ‘Pandya’ from her Instagram handle and archived some of her wedding photographs with Hardik. The fire started when a post from Reddit claimed that Natasa had claimed 70 percent of Hardik’s assets and properties. After this Natasha received extreme backlash from the netizens and Hardik got all the sympathy. But all these rumors were never confirmed by the couple.

However, the rumors settled down over the last few days. People got confused when Natasa restored some of her photos with Hardik. She also posted Instagram stories of her son Agastya Pandya bonding with Rohit Sharma’s daughter Samaira and Hardik’s brother Krunal Pandya’s son. All this while Hardik stayed away from the controversy and kept mute without addressing the speculated divorce.
