All is not well between Aishwarya and Abhishek? Jr Bachchan likes divorce post

Now, Abhishek's latest social media activity has added fuel to the fire. The actor has liked a post on Instagram that addressed rising divorce cases.

The post in question addresses the topic “Why love stops being easy.” It added, “Couples who have been married for long are now parting ways. What has prompted their decision and why are grey divorces on the rise?” The side note read, “Divorce is never easy for anyone. Who doesn't dream of a happily ever after or envision recreating those heartwarming videos of elderly couples holding hands as they cross the street?"

The post stated, "Yet, sometimes life doesn't unfold as we hoped. But how do people cope when they separate after decades together, after spending a significant portion of their lives relying on each other for both big and small things? What drives them to sever ties, and what challenges do they face? This story delves into these questions.

"Coincidentally, ‘grey divorces' or ‘silver splitters'—terms for those seeking marital dissolution typically after age 50—are on the rise globally. The reasons, though varied, are not surprising.”

Meanwhile, Abhishek and Aishwarya have neither denied nor accepted the divorce rumours.

Last week, the couple arrived separately for the grand Anant Amabni-Radhika Merchant wedding in Mumbai. While Abhishek arrived at the venue with his entire family, Aishwarya made the red carpet-appearance with their daughter Aaradhya.

The incident too sparked the divorce rumours.

However, on their 17th wedding anniversary this year in April, Aishwarya picked a throwback picture from their wedding album. The photo is from their engagement ceremony. The actress simply dropped a handful of emojis in the caption.

Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai got married in 2007. The grand wedding was hosted at Abhishek's father, megastar Amitabh Bachchan's Juhu bungalow named Prateeksha. The couple welcomed their first child — Aaradhya — in November 2011.
