New Delhi: The rumours about Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai's split have just taken a turn for the unexpected. Recently, Abhishek Bachchan liked an Instagram post that talked about rising divorces. Now, according to a Reddit user, Abhishek's recent "like" on the divorce post has a connection with Aishwarya Rai's longtime friend Zirak Marker.
A journalist named Heena Khandelwal brought attention to the rising trend of divorces among couples who've been married for a long time. Her post reads: "Divorce is never easy for anyone. Who doesn’t dream of a happily ever after or envision recreating those heartwarming videos of elderly couples holding hands as they cross the street? Yet, sometimes life doesn’t unfold as we hoped. But how do people cope when they separate after decades together, after spending a significant portion of their lives relying on each other for both big and small things?"
Speculation over Abhishek Bachchan's divorce from Aishwarya Rai began after his "like" on this post went viral.
Why Abhishek Bachchan Liked the Divorce Post?
Reportedly, Aishwarya Rai's friend Zirak Marker was one of the contributors to the viral divorce post. Therefore, Abhishek could have liked the post since it was linked to his wife's long-time buddy.
A Redditor posted a bunch of pictures as proof, with the caption: “The real reason why Abhishek liked that IG post: Aishwarya’s longtime friend Zirak Marker contributed to the article.”
This revelation has put a stop to the swirling divorce rumours as of now but there are some fans who are still not convinced by this.
