Former Pakistan cricketer Shoaib Malik announced his marriage to Pakistani actress Sana Javed on Saturday, confirming his separation from retired Indian tennis star Sania Mirza. While Shoaib shared joyous pictures of the nuptials on his Instagram, a report from The Pakistani Daily has raised eyebrows.
The report claimed that none of Shoaib’s family members attended the wedding.It further suggested serious concerns from Malik’s sisters regarding his divorce with Sania Mirza, citing the tennis star was tired of ex-husband’s alleged extra-marital affairs.
This is Shoaib’s third marriage. He divorced his first wife Ayesha Siddiqui in order to marry Sania Mirza. Shoaib and Sania had got married in Hyderabad in April 2010 and they used to live in Dubai. They welcomed their son Izaan in 2018. Their five-year-old son lives with Sania.

Being fit is hard, Choose your hard. being in debt is hard. Being financially disciplined is hard. Choose your hard. Communication is hard. No communicating is hard. Life will never be easy. I will always be hard. But we can choose our hard. Pick wisely.”
