Indian cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal recently posted a cryptic message on his Instagram story, amplifying speculation about his relationship with wife Dhanashree Verma. The message read, “Hard work spotlights the character of people. You know your journey. You know your pain. You know what all you have done to reach here. The world knows. You stand tall. You have worked with all your sweat to make your father and your mother proud. Keep standing tall like a proud son always.”
The emotional post, combined with recent social media activity, has led fans to believe the couple is heading towards separation after nearly five years of marriage. Both Chahal and Dhanashree have unfollowed each other on Instagram, and Chahal has reportedly removed all pictures of Dhanashree from his profile, further fueling the speculation.
According to sources, the couple has been living apart for several months. While the exact reasons for their reported separation remain unclear, this isn’t the first time their relationship has come under public scrutiny. In 2023, Dhanashree dropped “Chahal” from her Instagram handle, which sparked similar rumours, but Chahal had dismissed them at the time, urging fans to avoid spreading unverified information.
The pair tied the knot in December 2020 in an intimate ceremony in Gurgaon. Their love story began during the pandemic when Chahal reached out to Dhanashree, a choreographer, to learn dance after being impressed by her videos. They quickly became one of cricket’s most beloved couples, sharing glimpses of their relationship on social media and in interviews.
While Chahal has erased much of their shared history online, Dhanashree continues to keep pictures of them together on her account. Neither party has released an official statement regarding the divorce rumours, leaving fans shocked and eagerly awaiting clarity about their future.
