Yesterday came the heartbreaking news of Karan Patel's wife, Ankita Bhargava's miscarriage and it did in fact shock one and all. While the two have been trying to come to terms with it, on behalf of Karan and Ankita, there spokesperson had something to say.

And, here's the statement by their spokersperson, Avantika:

I would urge all media personnel to please allow Karan and Ankita karan Patel enough time to deal with the miscarriage.

It is a difficult time for them individually and for the families involved. This sudden turn of events happened a few days ago and ever since we have tried to keep it low key only so that we allow them enough time to cope with it.

However, given the nature of the lives they live we do understand there will be speculation and concern from many, while we are ever thankful to the love and concern shown I am sure we all agree that it is a tough time for them and coming to terms with it will take a few days.

Please consider this as a formal acceptance of the misfortune that has occured in their lives and thank you in advance for respecting their privacy.

We extend our support and warm wishes to the two, and wish them strength in such hard times.
