Another renowned couple bites the dust. Celebrity jewellery designer Farah Khan Ali has confirmed her split with DJ Aqeel Ali. Farah, who is the sister of Hrithik Roshan's former wife Sussanne Khan, announced that they are 'happily separated' on Instagram. Farah and Aqeel are parents to son Azaan, 18 and daughter Fizaa, 15. Sharing a picture with Aqeel, Farah confirmed their separation.
"Sometimes two people grow apart. Sometimes they outgrow each other. It has been 9 years since my relationship with my husband Aqeel changed its status as a couple to just friends and to term it simply would be to state that we are “Happily Separated”. We will always be best friends to each other and parents to our wonderful children Azaan and Fizaa who love us both equally yet accept that we cannot be a couple any longer," Farah wrote.
She further added, "This was a mutual decision we took together involving two adults and there wasn’t any third person involved. The reason we are announcing it publicly now, is so that the ones who know us accept our situation gracefully and always wish well for both of us especially because we hold no animosity of any kind towards one another and will always be there for each other."
Farah shared, "Aqeel is and will always be my family as I will be his. We hope that all our well wishers will accept our decision maturely and not judge us for it. It’s important to be happy and we all, Aqeel and I including our children and families most definitely are. That’s all that matters. Grateful and happy for everything in my life."
Farah, the daughter of actor Sanjay Khan, married Aqeel in 1999.
