Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, one of Bollywood’s most iconic couples, have recently been the subject of separation rumors. The speculation intensified when Abhishek’s social media activity drew attention. The actor liked an Instagram post discussing the increasing rates of divorce, particularly among long-married couples.
The post that Abhishek liked explored the theme “Why love stops being easy,” and delved into the rising trend of “grey divorces” or “silver splitters,” terms referring to those seeking marital dissolution typically after the age of 50. It highlighted the complexities and emotional struggles faced by couples who separate after decades together, emphasizing that divorce is never easy and often far from the “happily ever after” many envision. The post questioned what drives such couples to part ways and the challenges they encounter during the process.
Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, who tied the knot in a lavish ceremony in 2007 at Abhishek’s father Amitabh Bachchan’s Juhu bungalow, Prateeksha, have not publicly addressed the divorce rumors. The couple, celebrated for their fairy-tale romance and enduring partnership, welcomed their daughter Aaradhya in November 2011.
Despite the swirling rumors, the couple celebrated their 17th wedding anniversary in April this year. Aishwarya marked the occasion by sharing a throwback picture from their engagement ceremony on social media. The photo, which showed only their hands, was accompanied by a series of heartfelt emojis, but no detailed caption.
