Arbaaz Khan's confession that he was
involved in the IPL (Indian Premier League)
betting scam has sent shockwaves through
the nation. Now, sources tell India Today
that his betting also took a toll on his
relationship with ex-wife Malaika Arora.
Malaika had discouraged Arbaaz from
placing bets, but he did not pay any heed to
her. Their marriage had already hit choppy
waters, and this further strained their
relationship, claim sources. Apparently,
Arbaaz's father Salim Khan and brothers
Salman Khan and Sohail Khan also tried their
best to dissuade him, but to no avail.
Arbaaz and Malaika got divorced in
November last year, after announcing their
separation in 2016. While lots of conspiracy
theories were doing the rounds, the couple
issued a joint statement to put an end to the
"wrong, malicious information".
"We are not separated because of a third
random person, like there were stories of a
friendship between a businessman and
Malaika. Nor was it about his family
disapproving of her lifestyle, nor does she
feel that her husband is not financially
stable," the statement read.
Even after their divorce, Arbaaz and Malaika
continue to be on friendly terms. In an
interview, Arbaaz had said that there was
no bad blood between them and that the
split was an amicable one. He added that
they had to have a cordial relationship in
order to raise their 15-year-old son Arhaan
together.
