Indian all-rounder Hardik Pandya and his wife, Serbian actress Natasa Stankovic, have announced their separation after four years of marriage. The couple confirmed the news in a joint statement on Instagram, putting an end to months of speculation.

The statement expressed that despite their best efforts, both parties believe that separation is in their best interest. They emphasized the joy, respect, and companionship they shared during their marriage and the growth of their family.

Pandya assured fans that he and Natasa will continue to co-parent their son Agastya, who will remain their top priority. They pledged to provide him with all the love and support he needs for his happiness.

The couple, who tied the knot in 2020 after a year of dating, welcomed their son Agastya the same year. They renewed their vows in Udaipur in 2023 with both Christian and Hindu ceremonies.

Rumors of a split began earlier this year when fans noticed that Natasa had removed Pandya from her Instagram profile. This, along with Pandya’s recent appearance at Mukesh Ambani’s son’s wedding without his wife, fueled speculation.

Pandya remains a prominent figure in the Indian cricket team. He played a crucial role in India’s T20 World Cup 2024 victory, earning the title of first Indian to reach the No. 1 spot in the ICC men’s T20I all-rounder rankings.

The couple has requested privacy during this difficult time.
