Ayesha Saif blames Maryam Nawaz for ruining their marriage

Ayesha Saif, ex-wife of Junaid Safdar, PML-N Chief Organizer Maryam Nawaz’s son, blamed her former mother-in-law for ruining “privacy” of their married life, reported 24NewsHD TV channel.

In her reaction posted on social media Friday, Ayesha Saif said that she wanted to clarify some points regarding her divorce.

She said that The Almighty Allah says in the Holy Quran that He has created husband and wife so that they could live with each other peacefully. “And although wealth and other facilities play an important part in today’s life, still that peace (Sukoon) that is associated with marriage was missing in my life,” she said, and added that the ‘Sukoon’ she was looking for was never there after she tied the knot with Junaid.

She went on to say that she was happy that now she has got divorce. “Now I want to start my life afresh,” Ayesha added.

She requested people not to intrude into her private life by discussing her divorce on social media. “Unfortunately, my former mother-in-law did not pay heed to this basic human need,” she said.

On Thursday, Junaid confirmed that he had parted his ways with wife Ayesha Saif.

Taking to Instagram, Junaid said: “News about my divorce is true. This is an entirely private matter and I request the media to respect our privacy.

“I hope with this decision we find our peace InShaAllah.

“I will speak no further on this matter.

“I wish her well.”

Junaid also removed his pictures with his ex-wife from the social platform.

The couple’s wedding had taken place amid international media attention. Ayesha, a successful civil engineer from Qatar, and Junaid had kept their relationship away from the media spotlight during their time together.
