Shoaib Malik, former captain of the Pakistan cricket team, has recently been in the spotlight for his personal life following his divorce from Indian tennis star Sania Mirza. The news of his third marriage, this time with actor Sana Javed, came to light shortly after the announcement. Although speculations about Sania and Shoaib's separation had been circulating on social media, the confirmation came from Sania's father, who revealed that the couple had parted ways a few months ago. Responding to Shoaib's latest marriage, his former teammate and cricket legend from Pakistan, Shahid Afridi, made a lighthearted comment.
Afridi extended his best wishes to Shoaib and Sana for a happy married life, expressing his hope that the cricketer and the actor can enjoy a lasting union for the remainder of their lives."Many congratulations to Shoaib Malik. I hope god keeps him happy with this wife for the rest of his life (Shoaib Malik ko bohut bohut mubaraq baat. Allah usi isi life partner ke saath saari zindagi khush rakhe," Afridi told Samaa TV during an event.
Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, Malik shared pictures from the ceremony with a caption that read, "Alhamdulilah... And we created you in pairs."

In response to Shoaib Malik's marriage to Pakistani actor Sana Javed, Sania Mirza's father, Imran Mirza, has commented, stating to news agency PTI on Saturday that "it was a 'khula'". This term signifies the right of a Muslim woman to initiate a unilateral divorce from her husband.
This announcement followed a cryptic Instagram story from Sania Mirza hinting at the possibility of a divorce. Mirza's post urged people to choose their struggles wisely, emphasising the challenges of marriage and life choices.
Her post read: "Marriage is hard. Divorce is hard. Choose your hard. Obesity is hard. Being fit is hard. Choose your hard. Being in debt is hard. Being financially disciplined is hard. Choose your hard. Communication is hard. Not communicating is hard. Choose your hard. Life will never be easy. It will always be hard. But we can choose our hard. Pick wisely."

Speculations about Malik and Javed dating had already surfaced, and the cricketer added fuel to the rumours when he wished the actress a happy birthday last year. The Instagram post featured a picture of the two with the caption, "Happy Birthday Buddy."
Sana Javed, known for her roles in Urdu television, made headlines previously for her marriage to singer Umair Jaswal in October 2020. Today, on January 20, 2024, she entered matrimony for the second time, marrying Shoaib Malik in a private Nikah ceremony at her home in Karachi.
Moreover, Shoaib Malik’s marital journey with Sania Mirza began in 2010 with a traditional Hyderabadi Muslim wedding ceremony in India, followed by Pakistani customs.
The couple embraced parenthood with the birth of their son, Izhaan Mirza Malik, in October 2018.
