CNN Central News & Network-ITDC India Epress / ITDC News Bhopal: After sharing a few cryptic posts on social media amid rumours of separation from her cricketer-husband, Hardik Pandya, Serbian model Natasa Stankovic restored their wedding pictures on Instagram. She had presumably archived photos from her wedding and a few more pictures with Hardik, which led a Reddit user to believe that she and the Indian cricketer were headed towards a divorce.
Natasa and Hardik got engaged on January 1, 2020, and tied the knot during the COVID-induced lockdown. The couple welcomed a baby boy, Agastya, on July 30, 2020. The celebrity couple renewed their wedding vows in Udaipur on February 14, 2023.
A few days ago, a Reddit user noticed that Natasa had removed her pictures with Hardik and had also dropped Pandya from her name. The user also highlighted Natasa’s absence from the IPL 2024 matches to support her husband. Amid the speculations, her cryptic posts added fuel to the fire. She shared a video of a drive on the Bandra-Worli Sea Link on her Instagram story and wrote, “Praise God…” alongside it.
She also shared a post with the words, “Someone is about to get on the streets.” This was around the time when several reports claimed that Hardik would have to transfer 70 per cent of his net worth to Natasa if they separated.
Additionally, the actor-dancer dodged paparazzi questions about the divorce rumours at a restaurant in Bandra, Mumbai. When photographers asked if she would like to respond to the divorce rumours, Natasa said, “Thank you very much,” and left the spot.
Natasa Stankovic started her career by featuring in TV commercials. She made her Bollywood debut with Prakash Jha’s ‘Satyagraha’, where she appeared only in a song. Later, she played small parts in films like ‘Dishkiyaoon’, ‘Action Jackson’, ‘7 Hours to Go’, and ‘Zero’.
However, she gained popularity, first through her participation in ‘Bigg Boss 8’, and later in the dance reality show ‘Nach Baliye 9’.
