ISLAMABAD: The year 2022 is nearing to its end with many fairytales as 2023 approaches. We’ve compiled a list of the biggest celebrity splits of the year. Here’s a look at the couples whose love wasn’t meant to last a lifetime, from Ahad Raza Mir and Sajal Aly to Aima Baig and Shahbaz Shigri.
Sajal Aly and Ahad Raza Mir
The first heartbreaking news of 2022 required some time to accept. The internet was ablaze with rumors that longtime lovers Ahad Raza Mir and Sajal Aly were divorcing after two years of marriage. The couple had been dating since 2017 and married in 2020 at a destination wedding. Since their first on-screen interaction in Yakeen Ka Safar, Mir and Aly have quickly become a fan favorite.
Fairytales
Aly and Mir never made a statement or spoke about their divorce, while other couples had. Journalist Aamna Haider Isani announced the couple’s divorce in March this year. The pair has continued working on Herculean projects despite getting divorced, Mir with Netflix’s Resident Evil and Aly with Jemima Goldsmith’s global project, What’s Love Got to Do?
The Mom star recently discussed marriage being risky in an interview with Deadline while promoting her upcoming star-studded project at the second Red Sea Film Festival. When asked whether she preferred arranged marriage or love marriage, Sajal nervously chuckled and replied, “It’s still too early for me to comment on arranged or love marriages, but I firmly believe in the validity of such unions and in the power of love. And a wedding or shaadi involves risk! That’s all I can say, whether arranged or out of love.”
Aima Baig and Shahbaz Shigri
Another breakup that made headlines involved Aima Baig and actor Shahbaz Shigri, who announced their separation after a year-long engagement. The Baazi singer posted on Instagram that the couple is “doing good and fine.” ‘ Baig posted on social media, “Yes, I will respect this individual for giving me a reasonable time.” “Sometimes bad things do occur for a reason. And to answer all of your inquiries, we have broken off contact. But rest assured that both of us are doing well and fine.”
The singer said, “I did it with the utmost respect because I wanted to. People can express their emotions, which internalize who they are. I am being honest with anyone unsure whether they are or are not together. No, that’s the answer. Shahbaz and I are no longer dating.” The singer of “Pyaar Hua Tha” ended her statement by saying, “Please stop sending “feel bad” texts. We are doing great.” In a lavish ceremony, Baig and Shigri exchanged rings in 2021.
Feroze Khan and Aliza Sultan
The actor Feroze Khan and his wife of four years, Aliza Sultan, went through a messy divorce, which might qualify as the messiest split on the list. By announcing their divorce on social media in September of this year, the former couple ended the rumours of their separation. In her statement, Sultan charged Khan with physically and psychologically abusing her. Sultan claimed that the Khaani actor forced her to “endure infidelity, blackmail, and degradation.”
” My kids’ welfare and well-being have heavily influenced this choice. I don’t want them to develop in an unhealthy, toxic, violent home environment. I worry that being exposed to such a hostile environment will have a negative impact on their mental growth and way of life, “Shared Sultan on Instagram. Adding to her explanation, she stated, “No child should ever experience violence as a normal part of relationships as they grow up. I would rather teach them the lesson that no injury is too severe to be treated and no scar too embarrassing to be covered up at the expense of one’s safety.”
Khan initially decided not to respond to the abuse claims, but he later made a statement vehemently denying the claims made against him by his ex-wife. In an Instagram story, Feroze Khan stated, “I, Feroze Khan, vehemently deny any and all baseless, malicious, and untruthful accusations which have been leveled against me and are present on the social media rumor mill. “There is no truth or reality to these allegations.” “I fully committed to institute legal proceedings against the perpetrators of these activities, and I have advised my legal team accordingly,” he continued, adding that he will be taking the matter to court.
Imran Ashraf and Kiran Ashfaque
Imran Ashraf, an actor, and his wife of four years, Kiran, announced their separation the following month. In September, the actor and Kiran announced their separation on social media. They wrote on Instagram, “With a heavy heart, we announce that we have mutually and respectfully decided to part ways.” We will continue to be the best parents for our son Roham, who will remain our top priority. “We ask the supporters, well-wishers, and the media to support us during this trying time and give us the privacy we need to move on,” the joint statement continued. Kiran and Imran, with love and respect for everyone.
The couple got married in 2018 and has a son named Roham. The couple’s impending divorce has long been the subject of widespread rumors.

Sana Fakhar and Fakhar Jaffri
A week later, veteran actress Sana Fakhar announced the end of her 14-year marriage to Fakhar Jaffri. On social media, the actor posted the information. The 43-year-old star wrote on Instagram, “Breakups hurt. However, there are times when ending a relationship is absolutely necessary to prevent further heartbreak.”
She concluded, “With all due respect, me and Fakhar, after several years of marriage through highs and lows decided to take a separate path. Although it’s heartbreaking, I firmly believe God has better plans for us. Best wishes, Fakhar Jaffri. The couple got married in 2008 and has two sons.
