Malaika Arora and Arbaaz Khan ended their 18-year-long marriage in 2017, and after two years Malaika finally opened up about her divorce on bestie Kareena Kapoor Khan’s radio show What Women Want. Arbaaz has moved on and found love in Giorgio Andriani while Malaika is painting the town red with her relationship with Arjun Kapoor. During the show, Malaika opened up about her unhappy marriage and how she finally decided to move out and file for divorce. She also revealed her son Arhaan Khan’s reaction to the divorce.

During the chat show, Malaika said, “I would want to see my child in a happy environment than be subjected to an environment that is completely disruptive. With time, my child is far more accepting and far happier. He can see that we both as individuals are far more happy than what we were in our marriage. He did actually turn around one day and he did say that to me, 'Mom, it's good to see you happy and smiling'."

Malaika also said that the decision of filing for divorce was taken with a lot of consideration and she and Arbaaz had taken everyone's happiness into account. She said, “We did think about a lot of things and weighed every single pro and con. And then we decided, it's better off that we move our separate ways because we'd just be better people. Because we were two people in a situation making each other extremely unhappy which was impacting everybody else's life around us.”

Malaika won the custody of Arhaan who now stays with her.
