Abhishek Bajaj has become the talk of the town ever since he entered the Bigg Boss 19 house. Among other reasons, he has also been making headlines for his equation with co-contestant Ashnoor Kaur. The two, who share a good bond in Bigg Boss 19, are often linked together. But do you know that Abhishek was previously married and is now divorced?

While netizens believed the 32-year-old actor to be single, his wedding photos recently resurfaced on the internet and shocked everyone. It was then revealed that Abhishek was previously married to Akanksha Jindal.

Abhishek Bajaj married Akanksha Jindal eight years ago. Reportedly, they first met at a party and dated her for 7 years before getting married on a yacht near the Gateway of India in Mumbai in 2017.

However, Abhishek and Akanksha are no longer together. The date and the reason for their divorce are not known as of now.

Going by Akanksha’s Instagram profile, she is a digital creator who looks after lifestyle and travel content. She has a little over 2 lakh followers on Instagram and her bio mentions Delhi and Mumbai. She follows 282 people on the photo-sharing application but does not follow Abhishek.

In a recent interview, Akanksha revealed that they met in the ninth standard but then lost touch. A few years later, they met again and became good friends. When Abhishek proposed to Akanksha, they got married. However, Akanksha claimed that she soon realised marrying Abhishek wasn’t the right decision.

“I am someone who reads between the lines. I could sense from his behaviour that our marriage would not work, when I realised that I walked out,” Akanksha told Vickey Lalwani.

Akanksha further accused ‘Humara Bajaj’ of infidelity and added, “He was involved with a lot of girls, a lot of people from the industry actually spoke to me and showed me his reality. I found some screenshots and asked him, but he started playing the victim card and wanted to blame me.”

Abhishek has also reacted to Jindal’s infidelity claims. Recently, Bajaj’s team issued a note, claiming the actor had written it before entering the controversial reality show because he knew that something like this might happen.

In his note, Abhishek slammed Akanksha’s claims and called her a ‘fame digger’. He further bashed her alleged attempts to tarnish his image and urged everyone not to believe her.

“After years of silence and separation, to see a “fame digger” I once loved with all my heart now trying to tarnish my image and reputation for a moment of fame will be beyond painful,” Abhishek said.

“It has taken me immense courage and strength to rise above that dark phase of my life, to heal, and to rebuild my career on my own terms. Every step I’ve taken has been with honesty and hard work. To have that questioned or attacked in such a cheap and disgraceful manner is heartbreaking and deeply unfair,” he added.
