Pakistan Cricketer Imad Wasim Files for Divorce as Wife Publicly Alleges Extramarital Affair
Pakistani cricketer Imad Wasim has filed for divorce after his wife, Sania Ashfaq, publicly accused him of an extramarital affair and emotional abuse. In a detailed social media post, she cited infidelity as the reason for their separation and confirmed that legal proceedings are ongoing.
According to Ashfaq, the couple has decided to part ways amid an ongoing legal divorce process that is currently under examination. In a lengthy Instagram post spanning three pages, she alleged that Wasim’s extramarital relationship was the decisive factor that led to the collapse of their marriage. The couple shares three children, including an infant who is just five months old.
In her statement, Ashfaq described the separation as deeply painful, saying her family has been shattered and her children are now living without their father. She claimed that despite challenges common to many marriages, she remained committed as a wife and mother and made sincere efforts to preserve the family. However, she alleged that the involvement of a third person—who, she claimed, intended to marry Wasim—ultimately broke their already strained relationship.
Ashfaq further alleged that she endured emotional distress, mistreatment, and abandonment during periods of vulnerability, including during pregnancy. She said she chose silence for the sake of her children and the dignity of her household but felt compelled to speak out now to ensure that silence is not mistaken for weakness.
The cricketer’s wife also stated that the divorce proceedings have taken on a legal dimension, with inquiries currently underway. She claimed that evidence exists against those involved but alleged that she has been threatened to prevent her from making such material public. Ashfaq warned that any attempts to intimidate her would be met with legal action.
Quoting religious teachings in her post, she emphasized that justice would ultimately prevail and that wrongdoing does not go unnoticed. She concluded by stating that her decision to speak was not driven by revenge, but by a desire to stand up for herself, her children, and other women who are often asked to endure injustice in silence.
As the legal process continues, the matter remains under scrutiny, with the allegations adding to a growing list of high-profile personal controversies involving international cricketers. The case underscores the increasing role of social media in bringing private disputes into the public domain, while also highlighting the complex intersection of personal lives, legal accountability, and public scrutiny faced by professional athletes.
