Abhishek Bachchan missed a party hosted by Aishwarya Rai's family amid divorce speculations.
Aishwarya Rai spent quality time with her family on October 22, 2024. The actress was seen attending a private birthday celebration with her darling daughter, Aaradhya Bachchan. Aishwarya's mother, Brinda Rai, was also spotted. It was noticed that Abhishek Bachchan was missing from the celebrations.
Adding more fuel to the speculation, Aishwarya looked focused as she had a blast with her family. A report by News18 claimed that Abhishek Bachchan coincidentally returned to Mumbai on October 21, 2024. He had gone for the shooting of Housefull 5 and was then seen at the Mumbai airport.
A photo that made rounds on Reddit showed Aishwarya Rai resting her hand on her daughter Aaradhya's shoulders. The little girl was seen wearing her school jersey, and it looked like she had come for the party directly after attending school. The picture was reportedly shared by Aishwarya's cousin, who was celebrating her birthday with her near and dear ones. In the post, Aishwarya's cousin thanked everyone for wishing her while she shared the special snap.
Fans showered love on the picture and praised them for hosting a simple party. They loved that everyone was dressed humbly and nothing was over the top. Users also noticed that nothing about the celebration looked fake. Many netizens noticed Abhishek Bachchan's absence.
It's been months since everyone has speculated that Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan are heading for separation. The couple has maintained a stoic silence over the sensitive matter. However, there was a video doing roundabouts in which Abhishek was seen praising his wife, Aishwarya, for her supportive and understanding nature. The video was shot during the promotions of Dasvi , which got a lot of attention, and Abhishek could be seen in a conversation with Nimrat Kaur . He had said:
“My wife is exceptional at that. She's always been an amazing emotional support for me. I've been very lucky, my entire family has been. The wonderful thing about having a life partner like Aishwarya is that she is from the business. She gets it. She has been doing it slightly longer than I have. So, she knows the world. She has been through it all. So, it's nice when you come home and if you've had a challenging day, you know that there's somebody who gets it".
Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai got married on April 20, 2007. It has been 17 years since the pair tied the knot. The couple is blessed with a daughter, Aaradhya, who is 12 years old. It was in 2016 when Abhishek Bachchan addressed divorce rumors with wife Aishwarya Rai. He had shown off his wedding ring to the media, putting speculations at rest. However, another deepfake video of the couple circulated, which alleged that the duo separated.
The divorce rumors of the couple again resurfaced when Aishwarya alone attended Radhika Merchant and Anant Ambani's wedding with daughter Aaradhya. She was not seen with the Bachchan parivar . On the other side, Abhishek fueled the divorce rumors by liking a social media post on the topic of divorce. The couple was also spotted separately, adding more fire to the dynamics of their relationship.
On the work front, Abhishek Bachchan will be next seen in Be Happy .
