Imran khan cricketer wife

It was a longer innings than some predicted, but after nine years it came to an end yesterday when Imran Khan, the former Pakistan cricket captain turned politician, announced that his marriage to Jemima Goldsmith, the socialite and heiress, was finally over. "I sadly announce that Jemima and I are divorced," Mr Khan said in a statement released by his political party, Movement for Justice (Tehrik-e-Insaaf). "Whilst Jemima tried her best to settle here, my political life made it difficult for her to adapt to life in Pakistan," the statement added. The announcement brings to an end a union that was Pakistan's very own version of Posh and Becks and, for a while at least, looked as though it might help propel Mr Khan towards the pinnacle of Pakistani politics. Jemima was 21 and Imran 42 when they married in Richmond, south-west London, in 1995. She was the socialite daughter of Sir James Goldsmith, the billionaire financier and founder of the Referendum party. He was the playboy cricketer trying to turn his standing as a national hero in Pakistan into political capital. The bride converted to Islam soon after the wedding, changing her name to Jamila Haiqa, and the couple had two sons, Sulaiman and Kasim. Meanwhile Mr Khan's political career, launched mainly out of disgust with the rampant corruption of the last elected government, appeared to be on the rise. Although his party initially drew its support from the pious middle classes of Lahore, his wife was seen as an asset an...

For her public appearances, the former First Lady of Pakistan is noted for her choice to don a burka and a veil that shields most of her face from onlookers. When it comes to his wife's choice of attire, "I proposed to her without seeing her because she had never met me without her face being covered with a full veil. On February 18, 2018, it was confirmed that Bushra and her then-husband divorced and she tied the knot with Imran. Imran cites their mutual interests in Sufism as what drew him to his third wife. The since-ousted politician stated: "My interest in Sufism started 30 years ago. It changed my life. "Sufism is an order with many levels, but I have never met anyone who is as high as my wife. My interest in her began with that. "That is what keeps the interest. I have great respect for my wife's intellect and character." How many times has Bushra been married? Preceding her nuptials with Imran, Bushra was married once before to Khawar Maneka. They married in 1987 and called it quits in 2017, their union produced five children.
