Aarti Ravi Reacts After Ravi Mohan Attends Wedding With Kenishaa Francis: ‘He Has Not Just Walked Away From Me But...'
Aarti Ravi has finally addressed her separation from actor Ravi Mohan, talking about the emotional and financial turmoil she has faced since their split.
Aarti Ravi has finally addressed her separation from actor Ravi Mohan, talking about the emotional and financial turmoil she has faced since their split. Her statement, shared on Instagram, comes nearly a year after Ravi publicly announced their divorce.
The former couple, who were together for 18 years, have been in the public eye since news of their separation surfaced. Speculations intensified after Ravi was seen attending a wedding with singer and spiritual healer Kenishaa Francis, widely rumoured to be his new partner. Aarti said she had so far refrained from commenting for the sake of her children.
What Aarti Ravi said about her separation from Ravi Mohan
Aarti wrote: “For a year, I have carried silence like armour. Not because I was weak, but because my sons needed peace more than I needed to be heard.”
She elaborated on the personal toll the separation has taken, especially in the absence of support from Ravi. “I absorbed every accusation, every allegation, every cruel whisper thrown my way. I said nothing—not because I didn't have the truth but because I didn't want my children to carry the burden of choosing between parents. Today while the world sees carefully curated appearances and photo captions, our reality is very different. My divorce is still ongoing. But the man I once stood beside for 18 years—in love, loyalty and belief—has not just walked away from me—but from the very responsibilities he once promised to honour.”
Aarti claims Ravi Mohan has not given any financial support for their kids
Aarti’s post reveals that she has been solely caring for their two sons, aged 10 and 14, without any emotional or financial help from Ravi. “For months, the weight of their world has rested on my shoulders alone. Every book, every meal, every quiet tear at night—held, healed and carried by me. Not a whisper of emotional or financial support has followed from the one who once called them his pride. And now, we face home eviction—from the bank, on the instructions of the man who once built that very home with me. I am accused of being a gold digger. If that were ever true, I would have protected my personal interests long ago. But I chose love over calculation. Trust over transaction. And this is where it has brought me.”

She concluded, "I do not regret love. But I will not stand by as that love is rewritten as weakness. My children are 10 and 14. They deserve security, not shock. Stability, not silence. They are too young to understand legal clauses, but old enough to feel abandonment. Every unanswered call, every cancelled meeting, every cold message meant for me but read by them—these are just not oversights. They are wounds.”
Ravi had earlier issued a statement on X (formerly Twitter) in September last year confirming the separation. Aarti, however, responded at the time saying she and their sons were "blindsided" by the announcement.
