Star Indian all-rounder Hardik Pandya confirmed the rumors that have been going around for months now after announcing that he would be parting ways with Natasa Stankovic. Hardik confirmed his divorce from the Serbian model through an Instagram post that the former couple posted on July 18 (Thursday). Both of them called this a really difficult decision and said they would still be committed to co-parenting and raising their son, Agastya.
This news was not a surprise for fans as the rumours were there for many days now. The speculations started after Natasa removed all her wedding pictures from Instagram and dropped Pandya from her surname. Fans even noticed now the MI captain did not wish his ex-wife on her birthday and Natasa did not even post a single story about his ex-husband's heroics in the T20 World Cup 2024 triumph.
Hardik Pandya confirms divorce
"After 4 years of being together, Natasa and I have decided to mutually part ways. We tried our best together and gave it our all, and we believe this is in the best interest for the both of us. This was a tough decision for us to make, given the joy, mutual respect and companionship we enjoyed together and as we grew a family," Hardik's Instagram post read.
"We are blessed with Agastya, who will continue to be at the centre of both our lives and we will co-parent to ensure that we give him everything that we can for his happiness. We sincerely request your support and understanding to give us the privacy during this difficult and sensitive time," Hardik's post further stated
Hardik to give 70 percent of his net worth to Natasa?
Now there are massive rumours that are going viral all over the internet that state, Hardik Pandya would be giving away 70 percent of his net worth to his ex-wife Natasa following their divorce. As per reports, the MI star has a total net worth of INR 91 crore as of 2024.
Currently, there is no official information about Natasa's potential demands or the agreement between the two parties. However, in an old interview back in 2018, Hardik Pandya stated that 50 percent of all his property is registered in his mother's name, and if that is the case, Hardik most likely won't have to give away a large proportion of his overall assets. However, Natasa could still ask for maintenance as per the Indian laws.
"I said I don't trust myself; I won't take it in my name. I don't want to give 50% to anyone in the future. 50% will bother me a lot. It's better to take it in your name; 50% will be safe," Hardik said in an old interview.
