In a recent development, Team India opener Shikhar Dhawan has separated ways with wife Aesha Mukerji after almost 9 years of marriage. The news has come as a shock for the fans as the couple was one of the most adorable couples in the cricketing fraternity. Aesha Mukerji took to Instagram on Monday and broke the news about her separation with star India batsman. She confirmed about the divorce stating: “I THOUGHT DIVORCE WAS A DIRTY WORD UNTIL I BECAME A 2 TIME DIVORCEE.”

“Funny how words can have such powerful meanings and associations. I experienced this first hand as a divorcee. The first time I went through a divorce I was soooooooo scared. I felt like I had failed and I was doing something so wrong at that time,” Aesha Mukerji wrote.

“I felt as if I had let everyone down and even felt selfish. I felt that I was letting my parents down, I felt that I was letting my children down and even to some extent I felt as if I was letting God down. Divorce was such a dirty word,” she added.

However, there has been no confirmation of the divorce from the Indian opener yet.
