"They have been having problems for years."
Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan recently became the centre of intense media scrutiny due to swirling rumours surrounding their marriage.
Reports from various sources, including a feature by Times Now, suggest that the actress may have moved out of the Bachchan family home.
According to an undisclosed source cited by the publication:
“It is for their child that Abhishek and Aishwarya are still together.
“They have been having problems for years. Now matters have come to a head.”
Despite these reported challenges, the same source indicated that an official divorce between the couple appears unlikely.
The speculation surrounding the Bachchan couple gained further traction when an old interview with Aishwarya Rai resurfaced.
In the interview, conducted in 2009 when she was honoured with the Padma Shri, Aishwarya expressed gratitude for the recognition and credited her parents.
Notably, she also spoke warmly about her family, emphasising Abhishek’s unwavering support.
“I am blessed with the best husband in the world because it reflects on his strength that he can stand by his woman on a public platform at every given opportunity and applaud her,” she had said.
Despite being regarded as one of the most beloved couples in the industry, recent months have witnessed growing speculation about troubles within their marriage.
An instance that caught public attention was during Amitabh Bachchan’s 80th birthday celebration.
Shweta Bachchan, Abhishek’s sister, shared a family photo on her Instagram, which notably excluded Aishwarya Rai.
The picture featured Amitabh and Jaya Bachchan alongside their grandchildren, Aaradhya Bachchan, Navya Naveli Nanda, and Agastya Nanda.
Adding fuel to the rumours, Abhishek Bachchan was recently spotted without his wedding ring.
Once inseparable, the couple, who exchanged vows on April 20, 2007, and welcomed their daughter Aaradhya on November 16, 2011, now faces relentless scrutiny as fans question the authenticity of their union.
A Reddit user recently shared a collection of images featuring Abhishek Bachchan sans his wedding ring during various recent public appearances.
While Abhishek exuded charm in these photographs, it was the conspicuous absence of his wedding ring that seized the attention of keen-eyed followers.
As these images circulated online, social media platforms were flooded with a mix of concern and clever commentary.
Some opined that the couple might be leading separate lives without formalising a divorce, drawing parallels with other high-profile marriages within the Bachchan family.
Others argued for the acceptance of divorce as a viable option in the modern era, highlighting evolving societal norms.
As speculation continues to mount, fans and the media are keenly awaiting official statements from the Bachchan family, hoping for clarity on the status of Aishwarya and Abhishek’s relationship.
